Bermondsey Square, London, SE1

Dating from the early 1790?s, and quietly located in the corner of the historic Bermondsey Square, this Grade II Listed property has been renovated in recent years to create a contemporary residence over four floors. Numerous original features have been retained throughout the house, including early Georgian floor boards, fire places (with operating chimneys), sash windows and wood panelling.
