Occupying a raised ground-floor position within the Alaska Buildings, this substantial apartment offers exceptional lateral space, strong natural light and a clear architectural identity. Extending to just over 2,100 sq ft, the apartment provides space and privacy along with well-balanced proportions throughout.

Alaska Buildings occupies a former industrial site with origins in the late 19th century, later expanded in the early 20th century as the area developed into a centre for warehousing and light manufacturing close to the Thames. The robust brickwork, steel structures and generous glazing remain evident today and informed the thoughtful residential conversion carried out in the late 1990s.

The internal layout unfolds around a vast open-plan living space, where light enters from three aspects and plays across the brickwork, steel columns and warm timber flooring. Curved internal glazing introduces a softer rhythm to the industrial framework, maintaining openness while allowing subtle zoning within the plan.

The kitchen is deliberately understated and precisely detailed. A Bulthaup installation sits comfortably within the space, centred around a large island with integrated storage and breakfast seating. Its clean, minimal lines complement the building’s industrial fabric without drawing attention away from it, allowing the architecture to remain the focal point.

Bedroom accommodation is both generous and adaptable. Two well-proportioned sleeping areas are separated by translucent Reglit glass, offering privacy while preserving the loft aesthetic. The principal bedroom incorporates bespoke storage and connects to a striking bathroom finished in stainless steel and deep cobalt tiling. The layout allows for easy reconfiguration should a future owner wish to introduce a dressing area or alternative bedroom arrangement. The main storage side room has hot and cold water supply and drainage stack and can easily be converted into a wet room or en-suite.

The wider development is well regarded for its sense of space and long-term stability. Residents benefit from secure gated access, 24-hour concierge services, CCTV and an allocated parking space. Landscaped communal gardens sit at the centre of the scheme, arranged around a freshwater pond that provides a calm counterpoint to the surrounding city.

With excellent transportation links and positioned within easy reach of London Bridge, Bankside and the South Bank, this is an apartment of genuine substance, offering space, flexibility and architectural integrity in one of SE1’s most established conversions. The famous gourmet locations of Maltby Market, Borough Market and Bermondsey Street are all on hand.
