This apartment is right in Bermondsey Village, so you can walk to London Bridge, Tower Bridge, and The City in no time. It’s set in a gated community with a mix of Grade II listed buildings and newer ones, which gives it a nice, tucked-away feel. Inside, it’s got that industrial vibe – think exposed brick, open-plan living, and space to cook and hang out. And the best bit? You can head up to the communal roof terrace for direct views of The Shard and the London Eye – a perfect spot to unwind after exploring the city.
