Powerhouse’s allure is steeped in history, tracing over a century while nestled along one of London’s most coveted riverside locales.

Wow, a starting price of GBP 1.1 million sounds exorbitant! Is this really worth it just for some history and a river view?
For many, it’s not just about the view. It’s an investment in a historical landmark. These properties appreciate over time.
But how often do they really go up by that much? History doesn’t pay the mortgage.
True, appreciation is nice but the initial investment risk is huge.
I don’t think Thai investors are that interested because of the history but rather because of the potential financial returns.
Exactly, it’s all about the money. UK’s market has been lucrative for foreign investors.
Another case of gentrification, frankly. These developments push the real charm and less affluent folks out of the area.
Isn’t that the case with all luxury developments though? They target a specific, wealthy clientele.
Gentrification isn’t always bad. It brings life and investment into previously neglected areas.
I see what you mean, but it’s at the cost of diversity. Cities lose their unique flair.
Sure, CK Asset has great international projects, but is this kind of opulence necessary? Housing should be for everyone, not just the rich.
The real estate world thrives on high-end buyers; they’re the ones sustaining these projects.
The design by Sir Terry Farrell sounds intriguing. I appreciate his work but can it succeed in balancing historical aspects with new designs?
His past work has been pretty successful. He knows how to keep the character while adding modern elements.
Am I the only one who finds the commission promotion for agents a little sleazy? It feels like they’re desperate to sell.
Not really. Offering commissions is standard practice to incentivize sales agents. It’s all part of the business.
I get that, but shouldn’t the property sell itself without needing added incentives?
Isn’t this just another playground for the wealthy outside the UK? That leasehold doesn’t seem like a good deal for locals.
While the project seems stunning, I worry about the impact on local Londoners. These kinds of developments rarely benefit them.
Interesting to see such a significant Chinese investment in London. Is this the start of a bigger shift in property ownership?
I think more international buyers could lead to increased competition internationally, driving prices even higher.
I can’t help but be fascinated by Thames-side living. The history, the view… it’s like living in a storybook!
These price points are simply out of reach for the majority. The gap between rich and poor widens with each tower.
That’s just a sign of the times. Exclusivity breeds demand among those who can afford it.
But at what societal cost? That’s the real question.
Is anyone here genuinely interested in buying, or are we all just voyeurs from the sidelines?
As much as I love the idea, I’d need a few lifetimes of savings to buy a shoebox there.
These developments by CK Asset seem more focused on creating status symbols than homes.
I wonder if this will impact local rental markets, pushing prices up even more for regular folks.
