Weston Street, Bermondsey, SE1

Crafted by the award-winning architects Allford Hall Monaghan Morris (AHMM), this remarkable Bermondsey development showcases a refined fusion of modern design and skilled craftsmanship. With its tiered silhouette, brick exterior, and bold cantilevered balconies, the building brings a playful, Tetris-inspired rhythm to the urban landscape.

Step inside, and you’ll find an apartment thoughtfully designed with a harmonious blend of textures and materials. Cast concrete walls, subtly patterned with the grain of timber formwork, are paired with custom walnut joinery to create a warm and sophisticated atmosphere. The layout breaks from convention, and traditional doors are replaced by a sequence of interconnecting spaces that flow across half-levels, connected by graceful walnut staircases.

The moment you step inside, expansive floor-to-ceiling glazing draws the eye outward. Perched on the building’s top floor, ‘The Treehouse’ is nestled among the treetops, with foliage spilling into view and enveloping the glass in greenery connecting the home with nature, providing a sense of stillness and quiet. The kitchen sets a refined tone, with seamless Corian worktops, Siemens appliances, and a centrally placed induction hob that encourages social cooking, making it both functional and welcoming.

A dining area, seamlessly connected to the kitchen, looks out over the formal sitting room on the lower ground level, with full height French double-glazed doors opening onto a cantilevered south-facing balcony. The two double bedrooms, each with its own en-suite, are strategically placed on separate levels to ensure a sense of privacy and calm.

Throughout the apartment, the spaciousness and natural light are increasingly apparent. From the entrance, a short flight of stairs up reveals a wide, full-length living area, illuminated by expansive oak-framed double-glazed windows. A large fully glazed door extends the living area outward, where a south-facing roof terrace provides a peaceful escape high above the city streets. The apartment provides a remarkable sense of tranquility, whilst being so centrally located.

Located in the vibrant heart of Bermondsey and overlooking the leafy expanse of Leathermarket Gardens, Weston Street offers immediate access to the area's dynamic food and cultural offerings. Just five minutes away, Borough Market serves up some of the finest fresh produce in London, while Bermondsey Street is home to a mix of independent cafés, restaurants, pubs, and galleries. On weekends, the nearby Maltby Street Market draws crowds with its street food and craft beer stalls.

Commuting is effortless, with London Bridge station only a three-minute walk away, providing connections to the Northern and Jubilee lines, along with National Rail services. The City is also easily accessible; a fifteen-minute stroll across London Bridge brings you right into the financial centre.
