A luxurious four-bedroom riverside penthouse with 2,599sq ft of space over two floors and fantastic views of the London skyline has gone on the market for £6million.
The spectacular home has three terraces, all of which boast incredible panoramic views overlooking Tower Bridge, the Shard, the Thames and the London city skyline.
The stylish duplex is located in the historic Victorian goods warehouse of Butler’s Wharf, which has made its name for being one of the most sought after addressed on the waterfront.
Butler’s Wharf was built in 1873 as a shipping wharf and warehouse complex for exotic goods like tea, coffee, fruit and fine fabrics that had been imported to London from Asia and the Caribbean.
Today, it is known as the flagship residential building on the Tower Bridge riverside.

When the docks in Shad Thames closed in the late 1960s, early 70s, the building was used as a film set and artists’ space – even featuring prominently in a 1983 Doctor Who episode about the Daleks.
Then, in the late 1980s, it was converted into residential properties by British designer Sir Terence Conran.
In fact, the restaurants that Conran launched – including Le Pont de la Tour, where the Clintons and Blairs famously dined in the 1990s – are still there today.

Three of the four bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms and two have walk-in wardrobes
On the sixth floor there are four bedrooms, three of which have en-suite bathrooms and two have walk-in wardrobes.
Most impressively, the property also features a walled garden with a unique water feature, which can be accessed from the main bedroom.
It also has two secure underground parking spaces and 24-hour concierge service. But the new owner will need to pay a £15,000 service charge each year.
Speaking about the incredible property, Jon Byers, director at Anderson Rose who are selling the apartment, said: ‘This duplex penthouse is one of the neighbourhood’s finest homes.
‘As we come into the spring and summer seasons, residents can entertain across the penthouse’s three terraces whilst providing their guests with some of London’s most magical views.
‘The duplex is a London gem which we anticipate will garner much interest and not remain on the market for very long.’
