Living In St James’s, London

What Makes It Unique?

St James’s is quite literally one of, if not the most charming part of London.

It is in a superb central location…

Mayfair is to the north, Charing Cross and Leicester Square to the east, Green Park to the west and St James’s Park to the south.

Pall Mall, which is one of London’s most well known streets, is in St James’s and connects St James’s to Trafalgar Square and is close to Buckingham Palace.

St James’s is home to some of the most luxurious and beautiful flats and houses in London and they are rare and incredibly sought-after by those that are looking for a London pied-à-terre or home.

It is very well known for its world-renowned shops, such as Fortnum and Mason and the various tailors and stores that are on Jermyn Street.

The beauty of St James’s, aside from the architecture - which is stunning and mostly unchanged - is that it tourists do not usually know about it.

Tourists tend to stick to nearby Piccadilly Circus and Mayfair and because of that, St James’s is almost like a hidden gem in the heart of London, which makes it quieter and more private than Mayfair.

Some of the most sought-after schools in the area include: Eaton Square Senior School, Westminster Abbey Choir School, Westminster School, Westminster Cathedral Choir School, The Royal Ballet School, Eaton Square School, Queen’s College, London and Wetherby Senior School.
