Elephant Park, Elephant & Castle, SE1

Transformed from a series of unlovely roundabouts into a selection of tastefully appointed apartments, Elephant Park is one of the landmark developments in the SE1 area and West Grove is right at its heart. The influence of the nearby Southbank area is evident in the tech-friendly spaces that surround the area and this, together with a focus on sustainable materials, makes it attractive to young professionals looking to rent near the City. The neighbourhood is also popular with students, media professionals and civil servants who are drawn to this exciting space with its new coffee shops, pubs and restaurants.

Well-proportioned one, two and three bedroom apartments benefit from balcony access with grandstand views of a world-famous London skyline that stretches from Westminster to Tower Bridge. A fully-equipped gym, roof terrace and landscaped gardens form a perfect combination of stress-busting options: getting home from work has never been so relaxing, especially as the development is within walking distance from London Bridge. All amenities are kept in good order by a professional 24 hr Concierge operation.

Latin American food restaurants and shops are a major feature in this part of London and a walk along the river will take residents through the culinary delights of Borough Market. A Thameslink station is located right on the doorstep of the development and runs a direct service to St Pancras Eurostar terminal and Luton Airport to the north and southwards to Gatwick Airport. Two underground stops are just a short walk away. The Northern Line runs up through the Square Mile and the Bakerloo Line connects to Oxford Street in the heart of the West End.
