The opportunity to buy into Southbank Place is coming to a close. With the rest of the central London development sold out, only a last act awaits with the forthcoming release of apartments in its final block.
Braeburn Estates, a joint venture between Qatari Diar and Canary Wharf Group, recently unveiled the first images of what that last building – Seven – will be like.
Set to complete and launch to the market in the second half of 2025, the block will house 92 homes, all facing the Thames and the north bank of the river beyond.
One, two, three and four-bedroom apartments will be available as well as penthouses.
Designed by architects Stanton Williams, the properties feature open-plan design and come with a full complement of technological features.
Interior schemes have been created by studio Albion Nord, although with prices starting at £3.85million, buyers are likely to want to put their own stamp on their surroundings.
“We’ve always been passionate about the quality of the spaces we inhabit – how important the details and materials are for our wellbeing and quality of life,” said Stanton Williams principal director, Paul Williams.
“Our aim is always to focus on
those qualities of space, movement through space, how buildings unfold, how natural daylight enters, engages and transforms a building.
“These are the fundamental elements of architecture and that is the main aim of the design for Seven.”
Buyers at the building will get access to the 5.25-acre development’s 17,000sq ft private health club that comes complete with a 25-metre swimming pool, a gym, workout rooms, relaxation pods, treatment rooms and a hair and beauty studio.
“Seven provides the final opportunity to own a piece of London’s iconic skyline at Southbank Place,” said Qatari Diar chief sales and marketing officer, Richard Oakes.
“It not only presents the final chance to live here, but also provides some of the finest apartments available at this landmark development.
“There has been a fantastic response from the market during the initial off-plan sales period, with a number of sales and reservations, which we believe will only gain further momentum as we near completion.”
Located within easy walking distance of the Southbank Centre, Royal Festival Hall and the National Theatre, the development also benefits from the transport links of nearby Waterloo station including a direct Tube link to Canary Wharf.
“The interior and exterior designs at Seven are exceptional,

There’s an understanding at British Land that places need to be a blend of different things. Its vast project to transform Canada Water therefore involves creating places for people to work, go out, enjoy themselves, socialise, eat, drink and dance as well as live.
Its reworking of this part of London has so far seen a sweeping red bridge installed across the dock complete with waterside seating and construction of buildings to its west.
While The Founding houses the first phase’s apartments, the latest chunk of the project to reach completion is Dock Shed.
Modelled after the warehouses that once called the area home, this structure offers a variety of attractions for those considering buying locally. Rising to five storeys, the Allies And Morrison-designed building primarily features 180,000sq ft of workspace, rated BREEAM Outstanding for sustainability.
It boasts a reception area designed by Conran And Partners, which will also host a cafe and open meeting spaces.
For residents and those considering a move, there are two further attractions. Firstly there will be a 5,000sq ft all-day dining restaurant including 900sq ft of outdoor seating for the warmer months.
Secondly, the building will also be home to Canada Water Leisure Centre, operated by Southwark Council. Facilities will include an eight-lane swimming pool, a gym, a sports hall and fitness studios. It’s expected to open in the spring.
As a project, British Land’s regeneration of Canada Water is extensive. In total around 2million sq ft of office space will be provided in its buildings, 1million sq ft of cultural, retail and entertainment space will serve its community and around 3,000 homes will be built over its 15-year run.
The plans include provision for more than 1,250 new trees to be planted, 16 streets to be created – including the first new high street in London for a century – and 12 acres of public
space opened up including a park the size of Leicester Square. The area benefits from rapid connections to Canary Wharf (one stop) and London Bridge (two stops) on the Jubilee line as well as enjoying links to east and south London via the Windrush Line (formerly the Overground).
Average house prices in the area were 7% up on the previous year, although still 5% down on the 2017 peak of £604,280, according to property listings site Rightmove.
key details
Studio, One, two and three-bedroom apartments are currently available at The Founding in Canada Water. Guide prices start at £704,000 for studios, £986,500 for two-beds and £2million for three-beds.
