This exceptionally large three-bedroom penthouse occupies the top floors of the Capital Building in Embassy Gardens, with dramatic 4.5 m high ceilings and about 1,862 sq ft of internal space. Two substantial private roof terraces (c.1,062 sq ft total) provide 360-degree views including the River Thames and the City, creating rare, expansive outdoor entertaining areas in central London. The apartment was curated by a named designer and fitted with Rako smart lighting controls, three large storage units and two valet parking spaces — practical for central London living.
Residents benefit from comprehensive on-site amenities: 24-hour concierge, indoor pool and spa, gyms, cinema and exclusive access to the Sky Pool as well as rooftop communal spaces. The property is served by a community heating scheme and offers fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — convenient for professionals and frequent travellers. A very long lease (986 years) removes typical lease-length concerns for buyers.
Buyers should note the property is leasehold with a high annual ground rent (£1,100) and very expensive council tax banding. The development sits within an area classified as deprived despite a wider local profile of inner-city cosmopolitan white-collar residents; purchasers should consider local service provision and running costs. The layout and high specification mean minimal immediate work is required, but communal service charges and parking valet arrangements should be reviewed before purchase.
This penthouse will suit buyers seeking a standout, ready-to-enjoy central London home with exceptional terraces and amenities, or investors targeting premium lettings. A viewing is strongly recommended to appreciate the scale of the ceilings, the roof terraces and the panoramic views.
