A bright one-bedroom apartment on the third floor of Tudor House, One Tower Bridge, offers contemporary city living with a private balcony and plentiful natural light from a full-height window. The open-plan reception and integrated Miele kitchen are well suited to modern living and entertaining, and underfloor heating adds year-round comfort.
Residents benefit from extensive on-site facilities: 24-hour concierge, a gym, pool, spa with sauna and steam room, and business lounge — strong appeal for professionals and investors seeking a full-service building. The flat extends to approximately 540 sq ft and comes with an exceptionally long lease (985 years), removing immediate lease-related risks.
Be aware of the running costs: an annual service charge of £7,572 and ground rent of £950 are both above average and will affect net yield or monthly outgoings. Crime in the area is reported as above average and council tax is higher than typical; buyers should factor these into budgets and insurance costs.
This property is well placed for transport links (Tower Hill, London Bridge, DLR) and local amenities including Borough Market and riverside attractions. It suits first-time buyers seeking a turnkey city base or investors seeking a desirable, well-serviced rental in SE1, provided they accept the higher service costs and inner-city environment.
