ARCHITECTURAL FOCUS
New homes that become available don ’ t tend to stay on the market for very long and this penthouse is one of the crown jewels of the building .
The Circle is clad in in cobalt blue glazed bricks and comprises four quadrants . The street elevations are finished with stock brick matching the surrounding warehouses , whilst a striking blue cylinder façade references storage vessels and the dye and paint works prominent in the area in the 19th century .
In the central courtyard of The Circle is a bronze statue ( designed by Shirley Pace ) of ‘ Jacob ’ a Dray Horse that pulled beer barrels from the famous Anchor Brewhouse , situated next to Tower Bridge , to the Tap Room , a public house popular with the dock and shipyard workers .
Jon Byers , Founder of Anderson Rose , commented : “ The Circle is a building iconic in the local area and a popular place to live . New homes that become available don ’ t tend to stay on the market for very long and this penthouse is one of the crown jewels of the building . It benefits from the rare ability to own a home with a private roof terrace , which adds to the attractiveness of this home , that we ’ re sure will generate a lot of interest .”
Occupying the fourth floor of this superb riverside penthouse are three spacious bedrooms and two bathrooms , as well as a large utility and laundry room .
