Twickenham — £253,750 (shared ownership)
Shared ownership schemes have their flaws, but they do offer a realistic way for first-time buyers to get on the property ladder — and a 50% share of this place in the centre of Twickenham will be tempting for many.
There's an open-plan kitchen and living room in a home that's a short walk to the river.
For sale with Urban Moves. See more pictures and details about this property.
St John's Wood — £360,000
Proof that you don't have to be a millionaire to live in St John's Wood comes in the shape of this flat on Abercorn Place, just off Abbey Road.
As you might expect at this price in this neck of the woods, however, this really is just a one-room studio. That said, it all you need is a pied-a-terre it'd fulfil the brief, and the building has a 24hr porter and communal gardens.

Blackheath — £1,500,000
Simply astonishing views across Blackheath Common and London in this three-bedroom home that sits on the top two floors of this building. It's a striking home with a central space so vast it looks like one of the implausibly-big living rooms you see on TV sitcoms.

St James's Park — £60,000,000
The most expensive property currently on the open market in London, this rather amazing townhouse has over 14,000ft of accommodation split over seven floors in the very heart of the capital.
