Bill Nighy lived in a historical British suburb where average house prices are £6million

It is around a one-hour drive from London, where he is believed to have lived in Pimlico.

Pimlico is a historical part of central London with lots of Grade II listed buildings.

Although near the centre of London, there are plenty of leafy areas in Pimlico.

Visitors can enjoy Pimlico Gardens, which is next to the River Thames.

"Pimlico Gardens is situated by the River Thames at the southern end of St George's Square," Parks & Gardens stated.

"Pimlico Gardens is a small riverside park which is laid out with trees and grass and has seating and a drinking fountain.

"John Gibson's marble statue of 1836 of William Huskisson MP, the first railway fatality, was erected here in 1915.

"Also in the garden is 'The Helmsman', a bronze statue by Andre Wallace of 1996."

Residents can take advantage of the proximity to central London and the peaceful gardens.

However, living in the area does not come cheap.
