Many shared houses and flatshares in London are fully furnished, with a comfortable bed, study desk, wardrobe, and ample storage space, so students can move in without buying essential furniture. Shared accommodation also often comes with all-inclusive bills and communal facilities such as lounges, high-speed Wi-Fi, study areas, on-site laundry, gyms, and social spaces, giving residents plenty of places to relax, study, and meet other students.

Best areas for Student Flatshares in London

The best areas for shared student accommodation in London include Stratford, Mile End, Finsbury Park, Whitechapel and Greenwich. These neighbourhoods offer a good balance of rent, transport links, and access to universities, making them well-suited to students who want to share rather than pay Central London prices. In general, Zone 2–3 areas tend to offer better value for London house shares than Zone 1, while still keeping many university campuses and central London within a manageable commute. Below are the unique characteristics of each of London's best neighbourhoods for shared houses and flats.

Stratford (£180–£260/week)

Nearby University: Queen Mary University of London, University of East London, London Metropolitan University

Greenwich (£150–£250/week)

Nearby University: University of Greenwich, Goldsmiths, University of London, Ravensbourne University London, University of the Arts London
Greenwich offers a more relaxed setting than central London, with Greenwich Park, the Royal Observatory and plenty of cafés, pubs and local shops around the town centre.
