Office Space South London: 64 Buildings, 10 Best Picks (2026)

If you are looking for office space in south London and you want a count rather than a carousel, here is what Wezoo’s own catalogue holds: 64 buildings south of the centre, of which 43 publish a live monthly price for at least one private office. Between them they list 558 priced private offices, from £195 a month to £161,300.

The boundary, stated once and used for everything below. South London here means the postcode districts SE1–SE28, SW2–SW20, and the CR, BR, SM and KT areas — Croydon, Bromley, Sutton and Kingston. The same rule decides what is in and what is out. Westminster’s SW1 block counts as central London here rather than southern, and is covered by our central London guide, and Richmond, Twickenham and Teddington sit in the TW area, which is not on the list. Because the rule follows the postcode map rather than the river, it also takes in Chelsea, Fulham and South Kensington in the SW districts.

Prices below are what each operator publishes as a starting monthly rate for a whole office — not per-desk rates. The listings carry no tax label and no breakdown, so treat every figure as a headline rate and ask each operator what VAT, service charge, business rates, furniture and internet do to it. “Per stated occupant” divides that monthly rate by the maximum occupancy on the listing, which is a ceiling rather than a desk count: how many desks, cupboards and a meeting table fit alongside is a question for the viewing. A private office on Wezoo is an enquiry, not an instant booking. Every figure was re-read from the live listings on 13 September 2026.

Priced office space South London sits in 15 postcode districts, from SE1 in Bankside to CR9 in Croydon.

What does office space South London cost against the centre?

About a third less. Taking each building once, represented by the median of its own priced offices, the typical southern building charges £525 per stated occupant per month against £761 in central London, and £143 per m² against £210 — 31% and 32% respectively. That is 43 southern buildings against 206 central ones on price per person, and 43 against 203 on price per m² (p < 0.001 on both).

Part of that gap is a slightly smaller room. Comparing offices of the same stated capacity, southern ones carry about 6% less floor area per person, and the range the data allows runs from 12% less to a shade more (p = 0.087). So the room is a little tighter — but nothing like a third tighter.

The test that settles it holds everything constant at once. Across the 2,929 priced offices in the 246 southern and central buildings that publish both a capacity and a floor area, a model of monthly price on floor area, stated capacity and operator puts the southern address at 35% cheaper — p < 0.001, with a range of 21% to 46%. Same square metres, same stated capacity, same operator: still a third off.

You are not buying a smaller office. You are declining to buy a central postcode.

How much cheaper, by team size?

Each building counts once inside each band, so a single building with forty-eight rooms cannot tip a median.

Four of the five gaps clear p < 0.001 comfortably. The 21 or more band is the weak one — 14% at p = 0.013 — and it is the band where a tighter boundary makes it vanish altogether. Whole floors in Bankside and at Greenwich are priced like the City.

Is this one landlord’s rate card?

Regus, Spaces, HQ and Signature are one company, IWG, and IWG runs 16 of the 43 southern buildings that publish prices. Testing one brand in two places separates a location effect from a brand effect, and IWG is the only operator with enough buildings on both sides for a well-powered test: 16 southern against 29 central, where the southern buildings list 43% less per stated occupant (p < 0.001). Spacemade, with four southern buildings against seven central, comes out at 36% less (p = 0.029). Fora (14%, p = 0.255) and Kitt (19%, p = 0.115) point the same way without reaching significance on three to eight buildings, while Runway East, on two southern buildings against four central, points the other way — the only operator with more than one building on each side that does.

Six operator groups list only in the centre and two only in the south, so a simple south-versus-centre average is partly a comparison of different brands rather than of two places. The model above carries an operator term for that reason.

A note on the floor-area figures

Some operators appear to set a room’s stated capacity from its floor area at a fixed rate: IWG’s listings match floor area divided by 2.71 to within one person on 95% of rooms, Elementa’s a divisor of 3.26 on 91%. So “square metres per person” says more about who wrote the listing than about how generous the room is — the operator accounts for 51% of the variation in it, the part of London for 2%. It is a difference in cataloguing habits, not a shortcoming of any building — and our east London office guide reaches the same conclusion on the other side of the city: the operator sets the room, the postcode sets the price.

Is the south cheap, or is the centre expensive?

The centre is expensive. Of the 91 Wezoo buildings that are neither central nor southern, the 78 that publish a price are listed at £449 per stated occupant and £152 per m² — on the median, a shade below the south’s £525, though the difference is not statistically clear (p = 0.470). Read the gap as a central-London premium you can step outside of rather than a bargain unique to the south; half the south’s priced buildings sit in SE1, which pulls its median up.

Does the answer change if you draw South London more tightly?

Narrow it to the SE postcodes alone — 34 buildings, 25 of them priced, 244 offices — and the per-m² gap is still 24% (p = 0.002). What changes is the top of the ladder: among offices for more than twenty people in the SE postcodes, no gap can be measured at all, on 20 buildings. With that few, only a very large difference would have shown up.

One structural caveat: 67% of southern buildings publish a price against 88% of central ones, so every comparison here is between the buildings that publish, not between all buildings.

10 best office space South London picks for 2026

Ten buildings, spread across the SE, SW, Croydon, Bromley and Sutton postcodes and across the full width of the price range. Where a building sits inside a Wezoo district guide, that guide is linked under the write-up.

1. 1-2 Paris Gardens — Bankside, SE1 8ND

Seventeen priced offices in one address off Blackfriars Road, run by Halkin, ranging from a room for five to a floor for forty-four, with a published floor area on every one. The service list runs to phone booths, lockers, climate control, a coffee and tea bar, breakout space, a lounge, bike storage and a staffed reception. At a median of £563 per stated occupant it is not the cheapest address here, but it is a wide range to move through without changing building — though the rate per head is not flat here: it varies room by room, so price the room rather than the building.

What is listed: 17 priced offices, £3,700 to £27,500 per office per month, for 5 to 44 people, 23 to 184 m². Cheapest listed office: £3,700 for up to 6, at 23 m². None of them publishes a minimum term.

2. Croydon Lansdowne Road — Croydon, CR9 2ER

The cheapest private office Wezoo lists anywhere in Greater London sits here: £195 a month for a one-person room of four square metres, at The Lansdowne Building beside East Croydon. It is not a one-off either — forty-eight priced offices in one tower, climbing to a seventy-seven-person floor, every one on a stated one-month minimum. Twenty-five of the forty-eight are labelled external rooms and twenty-three internal. Breakout space, catering, a lounge and step-free access are listed at building level.

What is listed: 48 priced offices, £195 to £15,015 per office per month, for 1 to 77 people, 4 to 257 m². Cheapest listed office: £195 for up to 1, at 4 m² (2 rooms share that price). All 48 state a one-month minimum term.

3. Battersea Power Station — Battersea, SW11 8BZ

Forty-one priced offices inside the restored power station, from a single-person room at £609 to a twenty-five-person suite at £15,225, every one on a one-month minimum. It lists at £228 per square metre against a southern median of £143, and twenty-five of the forty-one are labelled internal rooms. Bike storage, a coffee and tea bar and step-free access are listed at building level.

What is listed: 41 priced offices, £609 to £15,225 per office per month, for 1 to 25 people, 5 to 68 m². Cheapest listed office: £609 for up to 1, at 5–6 m² (2 rooms share that price). All 41 state a one-month minimum term.

4. Greenwich — Greenwich Peninsula, SE10 0ER

The widest span of sizes of any priced building in the south: twenty-one offices running from four people at £1,560 to a 266-person, 866 m² floor at £115,711. All twenty-one are labelled external rooms, which is unusual — across the south only 264 of 558 offices carry that label — and twelve of them read “Available now”. At £134 per square metre it lists below the southern median while sitting on the river. The listing names public transport nearby, public parking, climate control, a lounge, a staffed reception and step-free access.

What is listed: 21 priced offices, £1,560 to £115,711 per office per month, for 4 to 266 people, 13 to 866 m². Cheapest listed office: £1,560 for up to 4, at 13 m² (2 rooms share that price). None of them publishes a minimum term.

5. Sutton Point — Sutton, SM1 4FS

Second-cheapest private-office entry price in Greater London after Croydon: £219 a month for a one-person, five-square-metre room. Twenty-nine priced offices in a single Sutton Point building, run by Spaces, up to twenty people at £4,380, all on a one-month minimum. At a median £219 per stated occupant it is the second-lowest per-person figure of the ten here, behind Croydon Lansdowne Road, and under 30 % of what the median central London building asks. Breakout space and catering are listed at building level.

What is listed: 29 priced offices, £219 to £4,380 per office per month, for 1 to 20 people, 5 to 52 m². Cheapest listed office: £219 for up to 1, at 5 m² (2 rooms share that price). All 29 state a one-month minimum term.

6. Pavilion Fulham — Fulham, SW6 3JW

The small-team pick. Twelve priced offices on Fulham High Street for one to eight people, £850 to £5,200 a month, six to thirty-six square metres, eleven of the twelve labelled external rooms. It is the only building of the ten here whose service list includes a bar and a restaurant, alongside a lounge, breakout space, a coffee and tea bar, bike storage, a staffed reception and public transport named as nearby. Note the boundary: Fulham sits in the SW districts, which is why it is in this guide, but it is on the north bank.

What is listed: 12 priced offices, £850 to £5,200 per office per month, for 1 to 8 people, 6 to 36 m². Cheapest listed office: £850 for up to 1, at 6 m². None of them publishes a minimum term.

7. Clockwise Bromley — Bromley, BR1

Fourteen priced offices in a refurbished tower, four to thirty people, £1,500 to £13,500 a month — and every one carries an “Available now” note. It is one of two of the ten here where that holds for the whole menu; Common Ground in Wimbledon is the other. The entry office works out at £250 per stated occupant. Public transport and public parking are both named, along with catering, climate control, a coffee and tea bar, a lounge, breakout space, bike storage and a staffed reception.

What is listed: 14 priced offices, £1,500 to £13,500 per office per month, for 4 to 30 people, 15 to 103 m². Cheapest listed office: £1,500 for up to 6, at 22–26 m² (2 rooms share that price). None of them publishes a minimum term.

8. The Landing — Putney, SW15 2TR

Eleven priced offices on Upper Richmond Road, run by Spacemade, for one to eighteen people, £650 to £7,200 a month. Ten read “Available now” and one reads “Available December”, which is more forward visibility than most listings here give you. The median works out at £400 per stated occupant, below the southern median and a little over half the central figure. It ties with The Gatehouse in Wandsworth and Fulham Works for the fullest building-level service list in the SW districts, at eleven entries: public transport and public parking nearby, bike storage, breakout space, catering, climate control, a coffee and tea bar, a lounge, phone booths, a staffed reception and step-free access.

What is listed: 11 priced offices, £650 to £7,200 per office per month, for 1 to 18 people, 6 to 53 m². Cheapest listed office: £650 for up to 1, at 6 m². None of them publishes a minimum term.

9. Lewisham High Street — Lewisham, SE13 6EE

Twenty-four priced offices above Lewisham High Street, run by Regus, from a £265 one-person room to a seventeen-person suite at £4,505, all on a stated one-month minimum. At £265 it is the cheapest entry price in the SE postcodes outside SE1, and its median of £265 per stated occupant sits against £670 for the typical SE building. Twelve rooms are labelled external and twelve internal. On-site parking is listed, along with public transport and public parking nearby, breakout space, catering, a lounge and step-free access.

What is listed: 24 priced offices, £265 to £4,505 per office per month, for 1 to 17 people, 4 to 44 m². Cheapest listed office: £265 for up to 1, at 4–5 m² (2 rooms share that price). All 24 state a one-month minimum term.

10. Common Ground — Wimbledon, SW19 5BA

The smallest menu of the ten here: five priced offices in Hill Place House on Wimbledon High Street, run by Spacemade, four to twelve people, £2,600 to £7,200 a month, seventeen to forty-two square metres. All five read “Available now”. At £160 per square metre it sits above the southern median and well below the central one. Phone booths, climate control, catering, a coffee and tea bar, a lounge, breakout space, bike storage, a staffed reception and public parking are all listed at building level.

What is listed: 5 priced offices, £2,600 to £7,200 per office per month, for 4 to 12 people, 17 to 42 m². Cheapest listed office: £2,600 for up to 4, at 17–19 m² (2 rooms share that price). None of them publishes a minimum term.

What will it cost for a team of six, ten or sixteen?

In twelve of the 43 buildings that publish prices, the cheapest office is a one-person room of four to six square metres — useful only if you are one person. The table below does the join the listings do not: for each of the ten buildings above, the cheapest office that seats at least two, six, ten, sixteen and twenty people, with that room’s own capacity and the date it comes free. A dash means the building lists nothing that large.

Read the capacity line before the price. “Seats 20+” at Croydon Lansdowne Road is a 27-person room and at Clockwise Bromley a 30-person room, so a team of twenty-two would be paying for chairs it does not need: the column gives the cheapest office that clears the bar, not one sized to your team. Where a room shows no date, the listing publishes none.

Some buildings charge a flat rate per person, and some price room by room

This is the thing to check before you sign anywhere you plan to grow. Of the 32 southern buildings listing four or more priced offices, 17 charge the same rate per stated occupant whatever the room size — Croydon Lansdowne Road at £195 a head, Kangley Bridge Road at £209, Sutton Point at £219 — so doubling the team doubles the bill and nothing else changes. Those are the buildings a finance model can extrapolate.

The other 15 price room by room, and the rate per head jumps about rather than climbing with size. At 12 of the 15 the larger rooms are the cheaper ones per person. 1-2 Paris Gardens has the widest spread of the fifteen and also the longest menu, at 17 offices: £388 a head in one sixteen-person room against £811 in a nine-person room, with its six-person room at £617 and its forty-four-person floor at £625. Pavilion Fulham runs £450 to £850 a head and Uncommon Fulham £412 to £600, on the same room-by-room basis.

On those fifteen, multiplying a headline per-head rate by your headcount gives the wrong number in either direction — at Paris Gardens it overstates a sixteen-person room by about £3,700 a month. Price the room, not the building.

Nothing in the listings says whether an operator will move you between rooms mid-term, or what that costs. If you are growing, that is the first question to ask, and it is what decides whether taking a big room now beats moving twice.

Where is office space South London concentrated?

In SE1, and thinly everywhere else. Thirty-one of the 64 buildings sit in SE1 — Bankside, Borough, London Bridge, Waterloo and Vauxhall — and they hold 183 of the 558 listed offices. The rest are spread across the outer boroughs, and the last column names the cheapest building in each group.

Nine Kingston-area buildings sit inside the boundary and none of them currently publishes room-level private-office listings or rates on Wezoo. Across the south, 21 buildings publish no private-office price; London-wide the figure is 63 of 390. A blank here means the price is not published, not that the building is empty. One further building inside the search area publishes no usable postcode and no priced office, so it sits outside every South London count above.

The districts with nothing in them

Priced private offices in the south sit in fifteen postcode districts: SE1, SE10, SE13, SE26, SW3, SW6, SW7, SW11, SW15, SW18, SW19, BR1, CR0, CR9, SM1. That leaves a large, well-populated belt with none at all — Peckham (SE15), Brixton (SW2 and SW9), Camberwell (SE5), Dulwich (SE21 and SE22), Herne Hill (SE24) and New Cross (SE14) have no priced private office on Wezoo, and the one SW2 building in the catalogue publishes no rates. SE1, SE10, SE13 and SE26 are the only SE districts holding a priced building at all. If you live in that belt, the cheapest priced addresses in the whole southern set are Croydon Lansdowne Road at £195, Sutton Point at £219 and Croydon Interchange House at £229; the cheapest inside SE1 is Vauxhall, HQ’s building at Vintage House, at £239.

What the listings tell you, and what they leave out

Across the 558 priced private offices in the south:

• Availability. 183 carry a future start date, 5 a date already passed, 103 a note reading “Available now”, 11 some other note, and 256 neither. (105 offices carry the “Available now” note in total; 2 of those also carry a date.)
• Minimum term. 399 state one month, 3 state 24 or 36 months, 156 state nothing.
• Window or not. 264 are labelled external rooms, 169 internal, 123 carry no label and 2 carry another.
• Floor area. All 558 publish a floor area in m².

Because every southern listing publishes a floor area, the per-square-metre comparison in this guide covers all 558 offices.

Three gaps are worth naming. Opening hours are stored against these offices but every southern record carries a blank 00:00–00:00 schedule, so this guide cannot tell you the hours these offices are let on. Room-level amenities are empty on all 558, so the write-ups above draw on a building-level service list instead. And that list is a set of flags, not detail: it will tell you a building is near public transport but never which station or how far, and it says nothing at all about internet, service charge, business rates, furniture, cleaning or whether a meeting room comes with the office. Those four questions — what is included, what the notice period is, what the deposit is, and whether you can register a company at the address — are the ones to put to the operator in the first email.

When should you choose South London over the centre?

When your team is under twenty and your clients are not all in the City. Between three and twenty people the southern buildings list 37% to 40% less per person, and for a one- or two-person office the gap reaches 51%. The cheapest private office Wezoo lists anywhere in Greater London is £195 a month, a one-person, 4 m² room at Croydon Lansdowne Road. Four of the six London buildings whose private-office entry price is under £250 are in the south; the other two are in Barking and West Kensington, and the next cheapest building after those six opens at £255.

When you should not: if you need a whole floor. Above twenty people the gap thins to 14% across the sector and cannot be measured at all inside the SE postcodes. At that size the riverside estates at London Bridge and Greenwich price like the City, and the choice comes down to the address rather than the bill. And if the postcode itself is not the point, the north, east and outer west sit a little lower per person on the median, though not by a clear enough margin to bank on.

If what you actually need is an address rather than a room — a company registration and a place for post — our guide to a registered office address in London covers that instead, and it costs a fraction of a desk.

For the other side of the river, our central London office guide counts the centre building by building, our east London office guide does the same for the E postcodes, and our west London coworking guide covers hot desks in the west. For the whole market, start with the complete guide to office space in London, and how much a private office costs in London sets out how these monthly rates are built.

Business rates, registration and the rest of the admin that comes with a new address are covered by the UK government’s business guidance, and you can check the journey to any of these addresses on Transport for London’s journey planner.

Office space South London: frequently asked questions

How much does office space South London cost per month?

Across the 558 private offices Wezoo lists in the South London postcodes, the published starting rate runs from £195 to £161,300 per office per month. The median building charges £525 per stated occupant and £143 per square metre. Those are whole-office rates, not per-desk rates, and the cheapest of them — £195 — is a one-person room at Croydon Lansdowne Road.

Is office space South London cheaper than central London?

Yes. Taking each building once, South London private offices are listed at £525 per stated occupant against £761 in central London, and £143 per square metre against £210. The per-person gap holds in all five team-size bands — widest for one- and two-person offices at 51%, and narrowest above twenty people at 14%.

Do you get a smaller room for the lower price in South London?

A little smaller, but not enough to explain the price. Comparing offices of the same stated capacity, southern ones carry about 6% less floor area per person, and the data allows anything from 12% less to a shade more. Hold floor area, stated capacity and the operator all fixed, and a southern address is still 35% cheaper.

Which postcodes count as South London in this guide?

SE1–SE28, SW2–SW20, and the CR, BR, SM and KT areas — Croydon, Bromley, Sutton and Kingston. The same rule decides what is in and what is out. Westminster’s SW1 block counts as central London here rather than southern, and Richmond, Twickenham and Teddington sit in the TW area, which is not on the list. Because the rule follows the postcode map rather than the river, it also takes in Chelsea, Fulham and South Kensington in the SW districts.

Where is the deepest choice of private offices in South London?

SE1. Of the 64 South London buildings Wezoo lists across the SE, SW2–SW20, CR, BR, SM and KT postcodes, 31 sit in SE1 — Bankside, Borough, London Bridge, Waterloo and Vauxhall — and 22 of those publish priced offices, 183 of them in total. The SW districts come next with 145 offices, and Croydon follows with 97 across three buildings; Croydon also holds the lowest private-office entry price in Greater London.

Can I book a South London private office online?

No — a private office on Wezoo is an enquiry rather than an instant booking. You send your requirements to the operator through the building’s page and they come back with terms. Hot desks, day offices and meeting rooms are the products that book instantly. The monthly starting price, the maximum occupancy and the floor area are all published before you enquire, which is what the tables in this guide are built from.

How soon can I move into a South London private office?

It depends on the listing, and just under half publish nothing at all. Of the 558 priced private offices in the South London postcodes, 183 publish a start date still in the future, 5 a date that has already passed, 103 carry a note reading “Available now”, 11 carry some other note such as “Under Offer”, and 256 publish neither a date nor a note. Treat any date as a starting point for the conversation rather than a guarantee.

What does an office for six or ten people cost in South London?

It depends which building, because two conventions are in play. Of the 32 southern buildings listing four or more priced offices, 17 charge a flat rate per stated occupant at every size, so a ten-person room costs ten times the per-person rate: Croydon Lansdowne Road runs at £195 a head, Kangley Bridge Road at £209 and Sutton Point at £219. The other 15 price room by room, and at 12 of those the larger rooms are cheaper per head rather than dearer; 1-2 Paris Gardens has the widest spread, from £388 a head in a sixteen-person room to £811 in a nine-person room. The table in this guide gives the cheapest office seating two, six, ten, sixteen and twenty people at each of the ten featured buildings.

What minimum term do South London private offices ask for?

Most publish a one-month minimum. Of the 558 priced private offices in this set, 399 state a minimum term of one month, 3 state 24 or 36 months, and 156 state nothing. A one-month minimum is the practical difference between a flexible office and a conventional commercial lease. It is what the operator has entered in the listing rather than a contract term, so confirm the notice period and the deposit before you sign.
