Set directly on the River Thames with uninterrupted views towards the Palace of Westminster, this 1,275 sq ft two-bedroom apartment offers rare lateral space in central London. The property sits within The Dumont, part of a premium riverside development, and benefits from secure parking, a large storage locker and 24-hour concierge. Onsite leisure includes an infinity pool, spa, gym, cinema, residents’ bar and communal lounge — amenities that support a comfortable city lifestyle or high-demand rental proposition.
The interior is open-plan and generously proportioned with floor-to-ceiling glazing to maximise the river aspect; ceilings are high and rooms feel bright and airy. There are two double bedrooms and two bathrooms, plus good built-in storage and circulation space. The balcony provides a direct riverside panorama though external space is limited; there is no private garden.
Practical points are straightforward: the apartment is chain-free and sits on an exceptionally long lease (987 years). Broadband and mobile signals are strong and the location delivers excellent transport links to the South Bank, Nine Elms and wider central London. Flood risk is very low.
Notable costs and considerations are material. Service charges are very high at approximately £13,870 per annum, ground rent is £800 and council tax is described as very expensive — buyers should factor these ongoing costs into long-term affordability. The property is leasehold and heated via a community scheme (check communal heating terms). The surrounding area is inner-city and characterised by high-density development; crime is average and some parts of the wider area show signs of deprivation, which may influence resale or rental demographics.
This apartment will suit purchasers seeking a high-spec riverside pied-à-terre, an executive townhouse alternative in central London, or investors targeting premium river-view rentals. It delivers a rare combination of space, views and five-star building facilities, but carries significant running costs that are important to assess before proceeding.
