Mansion Global – Thames-side Show Apartment

Thames-Side Show Apartment in South Bank Has a Front-Row Seat to the River, Big Ben and the London Eye

The new 13-story building is one of four in the Southbank Place complex and the last to complete.

2-bedroom price: £4.6 million (US $6.2 million)

A show apartment for the new Seven building in the Southbank Place development, this sixth-floor home offers direct views of the River Thames, the London Eye Ferris wheel and the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben.

The 13-story, 92-unit building was “completed a couple of months ago,” said listing agent Miles Wood, sales director of Qatari Diar. There are three other residential buildings in the 5.25-acre Southbank Place development, “all of which have sold. This is the final piece of the puzzle.”

“All of the apartments are oversized,” he said. “This one has two bedrooms and 1,700 square feet, which for London is a large apartment. It feels very grown-up.”

The reception room is “very, very generous, and you’re front row to the river,” Wood said. “The views are exceptional.”

The home features floor-to-ceiling windows to take in the open views and a “deep balcony directly overlooking the river,” he said.

Both bedrooms have walk-in closets, he said. “It’s a high-end kitchen with Miele appliances and a stone island.”

Dressed by Interior Design Studio Natalia Miyar

The apartment has been decorated by the luxury interior design studio Natalia Miyar Atelier using furniture, artworks and fabrics produced by British artisans in a nod to the location’s connection to the Festival of Britain, according to the agency. The national exhibition celebrating Britain’s contributions to science, industry and the arts was held in 1951 on the site Southbank Place now occupies.

Stats
The 1,702-square-foot home has two bedrooms, two full bathrooms and one partial bathroom. There is also a private 96-square-foot balcony.

Amenities include underground parking, a 24-hour concierge, private lounges and a 17,000 square-foot private health club, which is located below the development and includes a 25-meter swimming pool, his and hers steam and sauna rooms, a gym, workout rooms, relaxation pods, treatment rooms and a hair and beauty studio.
