Move to London from where? You won't buy anything for £350k. Unless you want to buy a studio / maisonette in Zone 4 (far from centre). Mortgage will depend on where you come from - it will be hard as you won't have a credit rating but there are some companies that may help with that or even global banks that have programmes to address that. You need 3 years residence in the UK to get a decent credit score.
