FLOOR PLANS for The Boulevard

Stunning new 1, 2 and 3 Bedroom Apartments in the heart of Southwark

Introducing The Boulevard by Latimer Homes, a boutique collection of new apartments located in the heart of Blackfriars Road, one of London’s only true boulevards.

An exclusive Zone 1 development, in close proximity to key transport links, and the best of the creative, cultural and social experiences London has to offer, The Boulevard has been designed to reflect and enhance the unique character and iconic heritage of the area.

Location

The Boulevard lies in the heart of London, in Southwark, one of the city’s most eclectic and dynamic neighbourhoods. An enviable leafy location on Blackfriars Road is befitting of the SE1 postcode.

From this very central position, the city is yours to explore: its riverside playgrounds and old and new landmarks, world-class culture and cutting-edge arts scenes, incredible dining and ever-expanding café society.

Key highlights

Many of the cultural and lifestyle experiences that define London as a true global giant are within easy reach, such as Tate Modern, The Globe Theatre and Royal Festival Hall on the Southbank, and the National Gallery and the West End just north of the river.

Closer still is The Cut, with its twin creative anchors The Old Vic and The Young Vic, and the eclectic Old Union Yard Arches.

Local food & drink

• Lantana. This Aussie café on Southwark Street is a good spot for Sunday brunch or coffee and cake. They make an excellent flat white with their famous house blend
• The Laughing Gravy. Modern British food in an old foundry on Blackfriars Road. Fresh seasonal flavours, great cocktails and consistently good reviews.
• The Ring. An ode to the arena that once stood opposite, this boxing-themed bar has memorabilia on the walls, hot dogs on the menu and craft beers on tap.
• Meson Don Felipe. This much-loved tapas bar on The Cut is a cosy spot for a pre-theatre supper. Jamón and Rioja meet Old and New Vics.
• Numnum. This Chinese noodle, rice bowl and stir-fry joint is tucked under a railway arch on Scoresby Street. For lunch on the run, or takeouts on speed dial.
• ’O Ver. Pizza purists will love this simple but delicious Neapolitan restaurant. Southern Italian street food, pasta and authentic wood-fired pizzas straight from the oven.

Culture & entertainment
