Samantha Laurie takes a look at the development transforming Vauxhall’s former telephone exchange
Londoners are used to being told that this area or that is up and coming but when your neighbours are the US Embassy and Apple HQ, there’s little doubt that Keybridge is located slap bang in the middle of prime regeneration territory.
Situated six minutes walk from Vauxhall station and a short stroll from the river, the development includes the UK’s tallest residential block tower (a whopping 37 storeys) and now the second phase of the project, Keybridge Capital comprising 125 luxury one, two and three-bedroom flats is on the market. With generous floor plans, floor-to-ceiling windows and doors, each home enjoys a private winter garden, balcony or terrace and residents have access to a luxury spa and gym, a 15-metre swimming pool, sauna and steam room, a 24-hour concierge, underground carpark (available by separate negotiation) and use of the Keybridge Club Lounge, with hotdesks, wifi and meeting areas for those working from home.
Set within beautifully landscaped gardens, which will include a new public square, residents won’t be short of entertainment here: Vauxhall is fast becoming culture central with a string of galleries such as the Gasworks Gallery, the Amstel Gallery and Damien Hirst’s Newport Street Gallery and there’s a booming foodie scene. Such attractions haven’t gone unnoticed – the latest Knight Frank research shows property prices in Vauxhall have increased by 79% since 2010, compared to 37% across central London. So you wont be surprised to hear that prices for a studio apartment start at £555,000.
