Set across an enormous 1,700+ sq ft lateral plan, this two-bedroom warehouse conversion pairs dramatic industrial character with expansive river views. High ceilings, exposed brick and two waterfront balconies frame vistas that include Tower Bridge and the City skyline, giving generous space for entertaining and relaxed city living.
Practical comforts include two large bedrooms, climate control in principal rooms, double glazing (pre-2002), a secure garage parking space and 24-hour concierge. Residents also have access to a gym and pool in the neighbouring block and bike storage, enhancing day-to-day convenience in this central Shad Thames location.
Important costs and constraints are stated plainly: the property is leasehold (997 years remaining) with a very high 2025 service charge of £17,432 (includes gym and reserve fund contribution) and £300 pa ground rent. Broadband speeds are reported slow and the apartment uses electric warm-air heating, which may affect running costs. Council tax is described as very expensive.
This home will suit buyers seeking distinctive, very large central London living with waterside views and on-site amenity access. It also suits investors who value the long lease and prime riverside address — but budget-conscious buyers should factor in the high ongoing service and tax costs and potential upgrades to heating and connectivity.
