11 Downing Street in London, also known in the United Kingdom as Number 11, is the official residence of the chancellor of the exchequer. The residence, in Downing Street in London, was built next to the official residence of the Prime Minister at Number 10 in 1682.
The first chancellor to live there was Henry Petty-Fitzmaurice in 1806, but Number 11 did not become the chancellor's official residence until 1828.
From 1997 to 2022, prime ministers Tony Blair, Gordon Brown, David Cameron, Theresa May and Boris Johnson chose to live in the flat above Number 11 for all or part of their term of office. Keir Starmer, his wife Victoria, and their two children lived above Number 11.
