Description
Set on the 30th floor of coveted development One Blackfriars, on the banks of the Thames, this two-bedroom apartment is defined by its expansive living spaces, exceptional views, convenient location and contemporary finish. One Blackfriars is an architectural marvel designed by the renowned British architect Ian Simpson of SimpsonHaugh and Partners. The stunning tower, inspired by the Lansetti II vase by Finnish artist Timo Sarpaneva, has a curved geometry and a transparent glass surface and has become a landmark on London's South Bank, an area rich in cultural heritage and artistic influence. Internally, the apartment has a large reception and kitchen, which is open-plan. Here, minimal cabinetry conceals top-of-the-line appliances and the worktops are topped with a pared-back natural stone. Stone floors run underfoot and floor-to-ceiling windows frame breathtaking views of the London skyline and the Thames below. Each of the ensuite bedrooms has fitted wardrobes and plush carpets, while bathrooms boast heated stone wall panels, walk-in showers, and anti-mist mirrors. A powder room and a utility room complete the plan, while a wraparound terrace surrounds the apartment and can be accessed by most of the apartment’s rooms. One Blackfriars has a 24-hour Harrods Estates concierge service that can help with everything from travel arrangements to event tickets and dinner parties. Valet parking is also available and there is a dedicated sky garden, an executive lounge on the 32nd floor, a private cinema, a wine-tasting room, and a golf simulator. The wellness facilities include a 20-metre swimming pool, a thermal suite and a state-of-the-art gym. Strategically located for convenient access across London and beyond, One Blackfriars is near Gatwick, Heathrow, and City Airport, with St Pancras International giving easy access to Europe.
