Luxury living at a stone's throw from Central London

What with the local council's recent multibillion pound regeneration efforts and burgeoning commercial interest in the area, there's never been a better time to look for penthouses in Croydon. London property markets are fast-moving and ever-developing; areas that were previously overlooked have enjoyed rapid rejuvenation and can look forward to soaring property prices, so now is the perfect time to buy.

As for which properties are an especially sound choice to purchase, there are many reasons why one should not look past ISLAND's penthouses in Croydon, right at the epicentre of London's biggest up-and-coming area, and at prices that won't cost the Earth.

ISLAND's penthouses are based on the 17th and 18th floors of the building and offer chic, contemporary decoration across an impressive 203 square metres of internal living space, alongside a sprawling terrace, from which one can enjoy breathtaking views of the city.

For such high specifications, you might have normally expected to sacrifice your proximity to Central London, or pay an exorbitant price. However, thanks to Croydon's increased connectivity with the rest of London and the affordable prices of ISLAND penthouses, this is no longer the case.

The development is strategically situated only 16 minutes from Victoria and 12 minutes from London Bridge, so you can enjoy your luxury accommodation without feeling disconnected from the city. Both of these stations connect to London's extensive underground system.

From Victoria, it's only a quick trip along the Circle or District lines to reach Embankment, where you can stroll along the banks of the Thames, enjoy the enthralling views across the river, take advantage of the tasty treats and wonderful bargains on offer from riverside street markets, or even take in a show at the National Theatre.

From London Bridge, meanwhile, it's just a hop, skip, and jump to Covent Garden with its beautiful restaurants, world famous shopping and handy proximity to the theatre district.

Of course, growing business development in Croydon has resulted in plans to extend the underground system there, so you might soon be able to bypass Victoria and London Bridge entirely! It is just another fantastic reason to invest in one of our penthouses in Croydon, without forfeiting the opulence and variety of London living.
