Summary - APARTMENT 235, 1, BLACKFRIARS ROAD SE1 9GQ
2 bed 2 bath Apartment
Spacious two-bedroom with panoramic Thames views and full residents’ amenities.
West-facing river and London Eye views
A premium two-bedroom apartment on the 23rd floor of One Blackfriars, enjoying west-facing views over the River Thames and the London Eye. At approximately 1,323 sq ft the apartment is unusually large for a central London riverside home, with floor-to-ceiling glazing, hardwood floors, stone bathrooms, integrated kitchen island and iPad home automation. A wrap-around winter garden maximises the outlook and natural light.
Residents benefit from extensive on-site amenities: gym, swimming pool, thermal suite, screening room, golf simulator, wine cellars and a 32nd-floor executive lounge. The building’s location on Bankside places Southbank cultural attractions and multiple transport links (Southwark and Blackfriars stations) within a short walking distance, making it practical for city or West End access.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold (995 years remaining) and runs on a community heating scheme. Service charges are high at around £15,900 per year and ground rent is £750, both material ongoing costs. Council tax is described as quite expensive. The local area records very high crime levels — a significant factor for some buyers.
This apartment will suit a buyer seeking a high-spec central London riverside home or an investor looking for a standout, lettable asset in a landmark tower. The apartment’s size, views and amenities are strong selling points; budget for substantial annual service and running costs and consider personal security preferences given area crime statistics.
