Set within the Grade II* listed Whitehall Court, this expansive 2,240 sq ft apartment occupies a prestigious riverside position with direct Thames and London Eye views. The flat offers grand proportions throughout: a wide entrance hall, high ceilings, reception and formal dining rooms, and a full-width southeast-facing terrace overlooking a leafy garden square. Three double bedrooms each have en-suite bathrooms, supported by a separate integrated kitchen and guest W.C. Residents benefit from 24-hour concierge, lift access and permit parking.
The property’s strengths are its scale, location and outlook. Large principal rooms with floor-to-ceiling French doors maximise light and river vistas; elegant period details sit alongside contemporary finishes such as wood flooring and well-presented bathrooms. The generous terrace and off-street parking are rare central-London assets that enhance long-term appeal for both owner-occupiers and lettings.
Buyers should note important material downsides. This is a leasehold with around 60 years remaining — many lenders may refuse mortgages and lease extension or purchase costs could be significant. The building’s listed status will restrict alterations and may complicate maintenance. Service charges are very high (approximately £30,428 pa) and council tax is described as very expensive, which will affect running costs. Crime in the immediate area is reported as very high; prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves about security and insurance implications.
This apartment suits buyers seeking a rare, large riverside pied-à-terre or an investment with exceptional central location and concierge services. It will particularly appeal to those able to manage lease and listed-building constraints and the ongoing service and tax costs.
