The Dumont, Vauxhall, SE1

As far as prime riverfront locations in London go, it would be hard to find one more auspicious than the one enjoyed by residents of The Dumont. Occupying the central position in a trio of St James developments, these luxurious apartments are in the sweet spot that allows views across the Thames of both the Chelsea Embankment and the Houses of Parliament. Residents can easily access the cultural attractions of the Southbank and the new buzz emanating from Nine Elms as both these districts are within walking distance from their front door.

As the Zone 1 centrepiece of what is now known as the Albert Embankment Plaza, The Dumont is a paragon of architectural and design excellence. The studio, one, two and three bedroom apartments are arranged over thirty floors and offer stylish and contemporary living spaces that are ideal for corporate professionals who need to be near the centre of the Capital. A choice of superbly-equipped amenities are situated within the development and are managed by a professional 24hr concierge service. They include an infinity pool, gym, spa and games room, complete with bowling alley.

Vauxhall Underground Station is a short walk away and runs a Tube service directly into the West End via the Victoria Line. A mainline link to Waterloo Station is also available which connects to a dedicated City shuttle service to Bank Station.
