New Archers Court is a three-bedroom, two-bathroom penthouse apartment set within a Grade II listed warehouse conversion on the banks of the River Thames in Rotherhithe, SE16. The property is offered with a share of freehold and a new 999-year lease.
The building is one of the original warehouse conversions along this stretch of the Thames. Dating from the 1840s, it originally served as the Riverside Granary for Rotherhithe Village and later operated as the Waterside Theatre, Waterside Works and Heritage Museum. In the 1970s it was known as the Crunchie Frog warehouse club and recording studios. The building received its Grade II listing and was restored and converted into residential apartments in 2006.
The apartment retains a range of original warehouse features, including exposed brickwork, wooden beams, loading bay doors, iron columns and vaulted ceilings. On the fourth floor there are two double bedrooms. The open-plan kitchen, dining and living room benefits from natural light, and a mezzanine area provides a third bedroom or home office.
The development comprises nine residential apartments and benefits from lift access and bike storage.
New Archers Court is located in Rotherhithe Village, a riverside area with a maritime history. Local amenities include the Mayflower pub, the Brunel Museum, Simplicity Restaurant and the Watch House café. Rotherhithe station is approximately 250 yards away, with Canada Water and Bermondsey stations approximately 600 yards away, providing access to the City, West End and central London.
A new 999-year lease starting from the 24th June 2026 has been granted with a peppercorn ground rent and the property also benefits from a share of freehold. The service charge is approximately £6,297.71 per annum. The property falls within Council Tax Band F.

By setting a proxy bid, the system will automatically bid on your behalf to maintain your position as the highest bidder, up to your proxy bid amount. If you are outbid, you will be notified via email so you can opt to increase your bid if you so choose.
If two of more users place identical bids, the bid that was placed first takes precedence, and this includes proxy bids.
Another bidder placed an automatic proxy bid greater or equal to the bid you have just placed. You will need to bid again to stand a chance of winning.
