Oval Village is a perfect example, sitting in a neighbourhood that is seeing a massive investment.<\/p>\n<p>\u200bAlso, the transportation links are easy to use. With Oval Station (Northern Line) and Vauxhall Station (Victoria Line) close by, residents can get to the City or the West End in under 15 minutes^.
