Trundle Street, Borough, SE1

Incredible five bedroom penthouse apartment with wow-factor vistas (taking in most of the London skyline's landmarks - north to the city and west to the Southbank) from a life-enhancing wraparound private roof terrace. Find your new home within Lantern Apartments SE1, by KMK Architects of Lambeth Walk.

The location is also top! You are right by Mint Street Park, just four minutes by foot from Borough Underground Station, 10 minutes from Borough Market, Southwark Cathedral and Tate Modern, and 14 from London Bridge Station and The Shard.

One of just 16 homes in the iconic boutique development, this big, bright and genuinely unique abode - pleasingly entered directly by lift - is delivered over two floors and 2448 square feet. The current owners have carried out smart, sensitive and extensive internal renovations during their occupancy, paying particular and welcome attention to custom-made fitted storage throughout (residents also have storage at basement level), and there is enormous flexibility in how you use the multiple rooms on your largest floor.

From the shared entrance lobby on the building's ground floor, take the lift and from here, enter your apartment directly - arriving in your own generous lobby (there is stair access too) at fifth floor level. It is this massive floor that hosts your five bedrooms, three bathrooms, and an independent utility/laundry room. Your principal bedroom has an en suite dressing room as well as en suite bathroom (with both bath and shower). A second oversized double bedroom has your second en suite bathroom, which also has access from the hall.

Up the stairs from your central lobby and you land in your huge open-plan main living space - of over 41 feet by nearly 17 feet. This incorporates seating, dining and kitchen areas. A huge central roof light features. Multiple huge sliding doors open to the terrace (where the views have to be seen to be believed, and the chsnging seasons can be enjoyed), and even on a dull day, the light simply floods in. Built-in bespoke bench seating with storage impresses, as does the sleek modern kitchen with central island, stone counters, a gadget tap, and high-end appliances.

All commutes are crazily easy, as are weekend adventures/shopping trips/social meets. Nearby Borough Market and Bermondsey Street have world-class spots for eating and drinking. The Bermondsey Beer Mile (now closer to two!), Maltby Street Market and Bermondsey Square are all also nearby.

Families are perhaps surprisingly well-served in this position. Beyond the nursery on the ground floor of the building, great state schools are within very close proximity; these include The Cathedral School (of St Saviour and St Mary Overie) and Saint Joseph's (primaries), and Haberdashers' Borough Academy (secondary).
