Bermondsey Offering Super Local Lifestyle In The Capital
Bermondsey is widely considered to be the capital’s coolest district – a hotspot for independent food producers, fashion, art and culture. The Sunday Times has chosen SE1 as one of the best places to live in the capital in successive years – celebrating its authentic vibe and maze of quirky streets, galleries, independent retailers and designers in spectacular former industrial buildings.
The area also has an amazing sense of community, with many residents and people working there staying local to shop, with bookshops, beekeepers and glass makers and some of the best food, craft beer and gin producers in London to be found within a short walk.
At the centre of this exciting district, the first residents have now moved into new neighbourhood London Square Bermondsey and are making the most of their new lifestyle, close to all the attractions of Bermondsey Street, a 12-minute walk to London Bridge station with Jubilee, Northern lines and national rail. The Thames Path is just three minutes on from London Bridge, with riverboat services to the east to Canary Wharf and Greenwich and to the West End and beyond. There is an excellent cycle route network, with an 11-minute cycle route to Bank station and good bus links.
For buyers looking to move to SE1, London Square Bermondsey is the perfect blend of old and new, echoing the area’s rich industrial past with a collection of converted and restored heritage buildings alongside striking new build, creating highly individual apartments and duplexes. There will also be galleries and studio spaces for Tannery Arts, which works with emerging artists, and a new Co-op food store at street level. Lime Square, a beautifully landscaped communal garden has just been completed at the heart of the scheme, with attractive plants and shrubs and seating areas for residents. There are also leafy corners, a number of communal courtyards and walkways throughout the four-acre development.
Award-winning developer London Square is selling a collection of one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments in The Pickle Factory and The Tannery, including a number of highly individual apartments with quirky, stand-out interiors, plus a range of duplexes, all with excellent specification and detailing, from contemporary, clean lines to warehouse style detailing. Many have dual aspect, and in some cases, triple aspect, maximising light and space, with some apartments enjoying fabulous views across the capital, with open plan living areas for relaxing or entertaining. All apartments have private outdoor space, balcony or a private terrace, with concierge and an on-site gym, equipped with the latest cardio and conditioning machines.
Jo McDonagh, sales and marketing director of London Square, said: “Bermondsey is one of the few areas of the capital which can truly be called authentic, with independent producers and retailers creating amazing food and goods that can only be found in SE1. We are seeing a lot of interest from buyers who want to live at the heart of that creative buzz and walk or cycle to work in the City and West End.”
Apartments are from £640,000 and duplexes from £1.25million. Find out more about London Square Bermondsey.
