Shard Offers Highest Apartments In London
Published on 02-10-2008 by Skyscrapernews.com
Much of is often written about the quality of accommodation by developers looking at hyping their latest residential scheme but in the case of the Shard, the P.R guff may well be true.
Called "the finest apartments in London", each will be individually bespoke according to the wishes of the client although an example is on offer in the brochure showing the sort of specification that could reasonably be expected.
It's a duplex with a reception area, attached cloak room and guest toilet whilst off this are the main open plan living areas, with double height ceilings and a media room or library to watch the latest HD movies in.
The apartments also offer some unusual kitchen facilities for the gastronome. Not only is there a standard kitchen but also a preparation/delivery area linked in to its own service lift.
These apartments are serviced by the luxury Shangra-La hotel which will also be located in the building and this means you will be able to order your own caviar and champagne up for the latest posh party complete with waiters on hand to impress your guests.
Attached to the living area on the north eastern corner is double height winter garden whilst the south western corner of the lower floor also has a winter garden integrated with a staircase.
Upstairs the master bedroom as you would expect comes with a dressing room and it's own bathroom but in addition to this is another attached area which could be a winter garden, spa or indeed both. The other side of the stairs there's space for a personal gym, and then the guest bedroom with an ensuite bathroom and its own dressing area.
All of this is without mentioning the views that will be on offer. Even the lowest of apartments will be higher up now than any residential space ever built whilst the penthouse will have a floor level taller than the roof height of any other building in London except the Pinnacle. These views will be maximised thanks to the floor to ceiling glass which wraps around the entire apartments flooding them with light.
There are only going to be a dozen or so apartments on offer and with such a limited amount there's no list price - you'd be better off guessing a telephone number. Billionaires will no doubt discretely bid against each other making the sky the limit for the price.
