The Alaska Building is an iconic converted architectural gem, and combines two former factories, one dating from 1869 and the other from 1932, designed by Wallis, Gilbert and Partners, who were also responsible for the Hoover Building in Perivale. Newer block, including the one containing the flat, were added in the late 1990's, capturing the factory-look but utilising modern construction techniques and facilities. The residents have owned the freehold since 2000, giving autonomy over service charges and investment security.

The Alaska Building is known for its sense of community and enjoys a high level of convenience and security, with electronic pedestrian and vehicle gates, CCTV and a 24-hour concierge desk.

Please note that the seller is currently awaiting the new 2025 Service Charge budget, so do make your own enquiries.

The Alaska Building is a gated development within a short distance of London Bridge station, with excellent bus links to various parts of London, including the City, West End, Shoreditch and Hampstead Heath.
