Skyline@Corio: 167 new flats in SE1, overlooking ornamental gardens
David Spittles5 March 2019

Bermondsey Spa used to be the wrong side of the tracks but design creep from Borough Market and Shad Thames is bringing this off-pitch location in from the cold.

The neighbourhood, in the prized SE1 post code, dates back to 1830 when philanthropist Thomas Keyse created a spa on what was meadows.

In Victorian times it became a centre for the leather trade. Once-derelict railway arches are now home to microbreweries and gourmet food outlets. Buyers are waking up and smelling the coffee.

Skyline@Corio, in Grange Walk, is a clean-cut scheme of 167 flats on the site of a former tannery that made Royal Maundy purses and government Despatch Boxes.

The building’s warm brick façade evokes the area’s traditional warehouses, while flats have generous-sized recessed balconies overlooking ornamental gardens.

Upper level three-bedroom apartments have been released priced from £899,950.
