Spacious two-bed Art Deco apartment with mezzanine, parking and concierge near Tower Bridge.
Grade II listed Art Deco building, lift-served with 24-hour concierge
Set within a landmark Grade II Art Deco building close to Tower Bridge, this newly renovated split-level apartment combines period character with contemporary upgrades. The living room features double-height ceilings and a raised mezzanine ideal for a home office, while a large corner window and triple glazing bring light and quiet into the city centre setting. The apartment includes two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a fitted kitchen with integrated appliances and useful under-stair storage.
Residents benefit from lift access, 24-hour concierge, communal bike storage and a dedicated underground parking space. Practical upgrades include new electrics, a top-of-the-range Fisher hot water system, new tiling, antique 1920s Tiffany lights in parts of the lower level and imminent EV charge-point installation for the building. The long lease (970 years) and recent renovation reduce immediate maintenance needs.
There are important material points to note: the flat is leasehold with a relatively high service charge (£6,500 p.a.) and a small ground rent (£100). The building’s listed status may restrict some alterations and has already been flagged as likely to cause complications. Applicants are advised of outstanding fire-safety matters affecting the block; further information should be obtained and factored into any purchase decision. Heating is by electric storage heaters (main fuel: electricity).
This apartment will suit buyers seeking a distinctive central London home or a lock-up-and-leave pied-à-terre with parking and concierge, as well as investors attracted to the location and long lease. Expect inner-city living trade-offs — busy surroundings, very high local crime statistics and above-average running costs — balanced by exceptional proximity to St Katharine Docks, the City, Elizabeth Line links and local amenities.
