Bermondsey is a historic part of London on the shores of the River Thames – but this home is anything but traditional. Windows surround the open-plan living space, offering views over leafy Southwark Park. The furnishings are sleek and stylish, our favourites being the glass dining table and leather armchair – we can just imagine sitting here with a book. However, the best part of this house might be the private balcony. Enjoy a morning coffee here, admiring the views over the surrounding trees, and feel like you're a world away from the busy city streets. While you might be tempted by the endless array of restaurants in the city, on those nights when you fancy a home-cooked meal the kitchen has everything you'll need to rustle something up. Don't forget to explore the local area while you're here too – Maltby Street Market is a must-visit for delicious food, and there are plenty of riverside pubs where you can enjoy a drink as the sun sets.
Home truths: *This home is close to a busy road, so you may hear some traffic noise
*There is no furniture on the balcony
