A bright two-bedroom penthouse offering far-reaching City and Tower Bridge views from a wraparound terrace and private balcony. The 984 sq ft apartment feels spacious with high ceilings, large windows, open-plan living and two bathrooms, including an en-suite. A long lease (approx. 974 years) and EPC C add practical value.
This property is sold significantly discounted and is currently for cash buyers only. There is no EWS1 form; an updated FRAEW exists and managing agents are applying for funding for remediation works starting in 2025. The building may have external wall system issues — purchasers should make enquiries about cladding, safety measures, and any interim protections.
Practical considerations include a high service charge (£10,538) and expensive council tax, slow broadband speeds and a high local crime rate. The central SE1 location offers excellent transport links (London Bridge, Bermondsey, Borough), easy access to markets and riverside amenities, and plenty of local schools rated Good or Outstanding.
This home suits a buyer who prioritises location, long lease security and skyline views and who can accept short-term remediation uncertainty and elevated running costs. Investors or owner-occupiers able to proceed in cash and carry out due diligence on the external wall system will find strong long-term potential in a rare top-floor apartment in this part of SE1.
