LARGEST PENTHOUSE IN LONDON SE1
Gracing three floors and offering over 4,600 sq. ft of accommodation the Penthouse
at Benbow House is currently the largest penthouse in the central London SE1
postcode, an area that stretches along the south bank of the River Thames from
Waterloo to beyond Tower Bridge, and is currently available exclusively through
Pastor Real Estate.
The luxurious penthouse offers an open and exceptionally bright reception room,
family and entertainment areas, five spacious bedrooms and two private terraces,
which afford stunning views of London’s famous skyline and River Thames.
The Penthouse at Benbow House has a luxurious and bright interior, with floor to
ceiling glass windows, taking maximum advantage of the view, a formal dining area in
addition to the kitchen area, a galleried library overlooking the main reception and a
wooden panelled study. The property also benefits from two private, secure,
underground car parking spaces and onsite 24-hour concierge.
Located in Bankside on London’s Southbank, Benbow House is near the world famous
New Globe Theatre. William Shakespeare’s original Globe Theatre, which opened in
1599, was closed in 1642 and demolished due to the closure of all theatres in England
at that time. The current New Globe Theatre was built 1997.
The Penthouse at Benbow House is within a 15-minute walk of the heart of the City,
via Southwark Bridge, a two-minute walk to the Tate Modern art gallery as well as
being close to Borough Market and a wide range of restaurants and bars. The area is
well served by public transport: Southwark Underground station (Jubilee line) and
London Bridge station (Main Line trains and Jubilee and Northern lines Underground).
The Millennium Bridge is instantly accessible and offers a short walk to St. Paul’s
Cathedral and its surrounding areas.
The Southbank is now one of the most exciting and vibrant areas of London, with a
huge range of cultural amenities in the area (Purcell Rooms, National Theatre, BFI,
Royal Festival Hall, etc.), with Covent Garden, St Paul’s and the City only a short
journey or walk away across the river. The newest hotel in the area is the illustrious
five-star Mondrian Hotel, recently opened in the listed Sea Containers House, which
brings added focus to area.
Susan Cohen, Head of Sales & Lettings at Pastor Real Estate said, “This is a fantastic
apartment in one of the most vibrant locations in central London, with breath-taking
views of the London skyline and River. It is very centrally located, in the heart of a
unique location that offers so much and is rapidly becoming one of the most sort after
locations in London.
“The location, space, light and parking mean that the Penthouse at Benbow House
appeals to both those working in the City and the Arts. It would make a stunning home
or City ’pied-a-terre’ and is also great for entertaining in all seasons.”
The Penthouse at Benbow House is offered for Sale at an asking price of £8.9 million.
