As the architectural backdrop of the capital evolves, so too does its residential landscape. The latest designs in luxurious homes are embracing this evolution, and the rise of penthouse living is becoming ever-more popular amongst the city’s homeowners. For those that choose to live their life elevated above the cityscape, the awe- inspiring views at their feet are enough to evoke a sense of serenity and seclusion like no other. The beauty of penthouse living is that these indulgencies are readily available; an endless source of inspiration that can be accessed on a daily basis. At One Tower Bridge, the luxury residential scheme on the bank of London’s River Thames, the latest collection of magnificent duplex penthouses is soon to be released, signalling the most anticipated addition to London’s penthouse portfolio. Built by one of the UK’s leading developers, Berkeley Homes, the exquisite homes are as inspirational as they are impressive, exhibiting a synthesis of elegant interiors and stunning design in an area of cultural significance. Sitting atop the scheme’s flagship river-facing building, Cambridge House, these extravagant penthouses are the jewel in the crown of London’s newest landmark. Situated at the foot of Tower Bridge, the penthouses command prestige like no other. Few individuals can boast of the historical influences that have shaped their homes in such a poignant and meaningful way. Perfectly positioned between London’s old and new, the penthouses take residence in an area of historical importance that cannot be replicated, combining rich heritage and contemporary style. For most, the pinnacle of penthouse living is dictated by what’s on the outside of the glass. At One Tower Bridge, the palatial penthouses capture views that stitch the capital’s most recognisable landmarks together in one iconic vista. Boasting a prime riverfront location, the enduring icons of St Paul’s, the Tower of London and Tower Bridge are woven with the contemporary characters of the Shard and the thriving business districts of the City and Canary Wharf, yet the unmistakable River Thames remains an elegant focal point in an unrivalled panorama.
