Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Wow, this home is like a vibrant rainbow – we absolutely love all the colours and textures (it may not be for you if you prefer a calming, neutral scheme, though). Children between 2 and 12 years old aren't allowed here, and we can see why – it's filled with sumptuous fabrics, funky furniture, modern artwork and ornaments. There’s plenty of room to entertain in the open-plan living space, and you can admire the views of London, including the Shard, as you enjoy your meal. It's perfect for couples, friends, and also work colleagues, as there's a dedicated workspace here. Situated in Bermondsey, you're a ten-minute walk from London Bridge and close to delicious eateries and pubs.
