Where is 9 Millbank?

It’s hard to imagine a more prestigious location than 9 Millbank, gracing the banks of the River Thames just south of the Palace of Westminster, near to many of London’s most iconic landmarks. This Grade II listed building creates an elegant gateway at the end of Lambeth Bridge, with its mirror image home to MI5. 

For residents of 9 Millbank, you simply couldn’t be in a better location for exploring Westminster and the West End of London, with its endless selection of theatres, museums, shopping, restaurants, bars, and more. 

This central address is also within easy reach of several tube stations, including Westminster, St James’s Park, and Pimlico, and Waterloo Station is just across the river for mainline services. Heathrow airport can also be reached by car or tube in around an hour. 

Key Features of 9 Millbank

Grand History and Contemporary Living

9 Millbank’s defining feature is the rich mix of old and new – the restoration of a stunning 1920s Grade II listed building into homes that exemplify contemporary sophistication and capture the very essence of British luxury and style. Along with the original office building, the impressive former Imperial Chemical Industries' (ICI) headquarters, a new building was created alongside to complement and enhance the entire development. This new addition also features stunning homes as well as commercial space at ground level, enhancing Horseferry Road and this entire riverside neighbourhood. 

Inside the exquisitely renovated residences you’ll find original features and architectural detail just as majestic and beautiful as the exterior, making these homes truly unique and special. Soaring vaulted ceilings, decorative plaster mouldings, luxurious wood panelling, and grand columns – it’s hard to imagine a more arresting living space in central London. 

All residents will have access to state-of-the-art amenities designed by Goddard Littlefair including a gym, swimming pool with spa and treatment room, cinema screening room, meeting rooms, secure underground parking and 24-hour concierge.

Shopping, Dining, and Culture

It’s hard to beat London for fantastic shopping, from the designer stores of New Bond Street to the tailors of Savile Row, to Harrods and Harvey Nichols in Knightsbridge, all within easy reach of 9 Millbank. And of course, there’s Regent Street and Oxford Street for every major brand you can think of, as well as some much-loved treasures like Hamleys and Selfridges.

Whenever you’re in the mood for some fine dining, London will provide you with a full selection of world-class restaurants, from innovative Indian cuisine at The Cinnamon Club to classic British elegance at The Dining Room at the Goring Hotel – a favourite of the Royal Family. For everyday bites you’ll find sophisticated coffee shops around every corner, and plenty of specialist delis and purveyors of fine produce. 

With this address you’ll never be starved of culture either, with some of London – and the world’s – most famous landmarks and historic sites on your doorstep. Westminster Abbey, Buckingham Palace, the National Gallery on Trafalgar Square, they’re all within easy reach whenever you want to soak up some unique history and culture. In the evening you could enjoy some ballet or a spot of opera at the Royal Opera House, or take in the latest West End show on Shaftsbury Avenue. 

Sustainable Design 

Throughout the restoration of this historic building, sustainability has been at the heart of the design philosophy. From the materials used to the green spaces, every detail has been carefully planned. All solid timber used in the construction has been responsibly sourced from certified forests, and historic fixtures and features of the building have been retained and meticulously restored, minimising the need for new materials and the amount of waste produced during construction. 

There are also plenty of features that will maximise sustainability throughout the building’s life, as well as enable more sustainable lifestyle for its residents. Taps are flow controlled and toilets are all dual flush, and a rainwater harvesting system will capture rainfall to be reused to water landscaped areas. The building has a communal combined heat and power system to reduce associated carbon emissions, while individual apartments have been designed to be as energy efficient as possible with LED lighting, thermostatically controlled heating, and the best in insulation. Residents will have access to electric car charging points for 25 vehicles, with space set aside to double this capacity. There are also 204 cycle parking spaces.

9 Millbank will boast beautiful landscaping with five different species of tree, and a host of different plants and flowers. It will also feature a green roof, helping to improve air quality and provide habitats for butterflies and other wildlife.
