the average cost of a property across the UK, according to Zoopla. A representative for Yopa added: "Set to become one of the big winners from the eventual arrival of Crossrail, the
regeneration of Woolwich has been a long process, which is probably why it remains one of the capital's cheapest areas to buy and live. “Located 10 miles south-east of central London on
the south bank of the Thames, Woolwich is popular with young professionals. First-time buyers who are looking for good value and a reasonable commute tend to buy here, particularly those
who work in nearby Canary Wharf."
