Tabernacle Street Shoreditch

Cradled between the urban East End and the bright lights of the city, the aptly named City Road offers a cosy vantage point from which to observe all of London life. This home sits high in a brand new, portered block, its private balcony taking in an extraordinary panorama that encompasses all human life. There's an ancient cemetery, the avant-garde architectural statement that is the Gherkin, tumbledown estates and smart rooftop penthouses. London is spread before you, the ultimate living landscape. And all you need to do is open your eyes, and look.
