For a placeholder figure that 1600-1800 should more than cover a decent 1 bedroom in almost any part of town. It wont be fancy or huge, but the 350-450 per week range is a bit of a sweet spot for your typical professional.

If you need a furnished place that may change significantly.

We did cover this not too long ago

I'd say 1 bed is 300-400 in a nice area. Places here in London tend to be fairly small.

most rentals come at least part furnished, especially at that end of the market.

I live in Primrose Hill and love it. Depending on what you like you can also think about Notting Hill, Maida Vale...

Spent a lot of last year in Maida Vale, +1 it's lovely

Sofa and bed maybe, but you'll still need to drop a few grand on the rest of it...
