This spacious three-bedroom, two-bathroom penthouse in The Taper Building presents a unique opportunity to live in a striking architectural landmark at the heart of Bermondsey.
Designed by MCA Marchini Curran Associates, the building thoughtfully integrates with SE1’s distinctive style and heritage, while the interiors, crafted by Stiff + Trevillion, prioritise natural light and spacious living areas. The building's double-height entrance reception foyer makes a bold statement, with its combination of concrete, steel, and brick, highlighted by feature lighting that accentuates its modern yet heritage-inspired design.
The development comprises 56 private apartments and offers an excellent investment opportunity within Zone 1, just a 5-minute walk from both London Bridge and Borough stations.
The sub penthouse spans across a large terrace, offering expansive outdoor living space and views of the surrounding area. The apartment’s design makes the most of its generous proportions, with light-filled living areas that flow from one room to the next.
With 1,029 sq ft, the apartment features a contemporary kitchen with high-end appliances, integrated storage, and a stylish design that complements the overall aesthetic of the home. Both bathrooms are well-appointed with modern fixtures and finishes. The apartment includes underfloor heating.
Residents of The Taper Building benefit from access to a landscaped garden and green sky terrace. The building is also equipped with a private gym, 24-hour security, video entry to all apartments, and a personal concierge service.
Bermondsey’s vibrant atmosphere offers a perfect blend of history, culture, and modern living. The area is home to a variety of cafes, boutiques, and renowned dining spots such as Jose Pizarro’s tapas bar, alongside the White Cube gallery. London Bridge and Tower Bridge are both within walking distance, as are the upmarket restaurants of The Shard, lively Borough Market, the cultural hub of the South Bank and popular tourist spots such as the HMS Belfast. Cross either bridge to discover the highlights on the northern bank, including the marina at St Katharine Docks and the Tower of London.
For journeys farther afield, The Taper Building is just a five-minute walk from Borough Station and six minutes to London Bridge Station, and you can also catch buses right outside or take the scenic route across town aboard a Thames Clipper.
The redevelopment of Bermondsey Street has injected new life into the area while preserving its small-village charm, making it one of the most desirable locations in London. With excellent transport links, including easy access to major hubs such as London Bridge, this penthouse provides the perfect balance of central city living and a relaxed, community-focused atmosphere.
