Galliard Homes are delighted to launch a magnificent Manhattan style 2,356 sqft duplex penthouse with a large roof terrace, with interiors by Olivia Alexandra Interior Design, occupying the top two floors of the 42-story Maine Tower in London Docklands, the penthouse providing unparalleled views from 450 feet above Canary Wharf. Obviously, nothing can compare to actually living in Manhattan, that is why retiring in Manhattan, as well as other areas of New York, is seen as an amazing place to settle down in, with homes like this dotted all over the place, however, having it on your doorstep in England makes up for that.

One of the most elevated homes in London, the 450 feet high three-bedroom penthouse is on sale for 3.35 million and forms the crown jewel of Maine Tower, part of Galliard’s Harbour Central development which provides a Manhattan-style ‘vertical village’ in London’s Canary Wharf. Along with spacious and luxurious living and entertaining spaces the penthouse has a large private roof terrace that offers truly breathtaking views over London and Canary Wharf’s iconic skyline.

Interior designer Olivia Alexandra of Olivia Alexandra Interior Design has lived and spent time in many different countries, and draws on her passion for travel, along with the vibrant interplay between fashion and luxury interiors, to help inspire her work. With the penthouse at Maine, Tower Olivia has created a stunning interior design scheme inspired by Manhattan living and the fashion boutiques and hotels of Madison Avenue and Fifth Avenue. The penthouse has beautiful and elegant bespoke sofas, Deco style features chairs and a sculptural staircase that connects the two floors of the duplex.

Olivia Alexandra was also inspired by the glittering high-rise Docklands buildings all around Maine Tower and has designed the interiors to showcase the views, with clever details including sheer curtains in the main reception room to let in the surrounding skyscraper lights at night and cast shadows into the plush fire-lit space.

The Maine Tower penthouse is one of the most prestigious properties for sale in London Docklands today providing three VIP bedroom suites, alongside a spacious entrance hall, main dining/reception room, family kitchen and breakfast room, utility room, and family bathroom.

On entering through the reception hall residents and guests will be met by an elegant sweeping staircase that leads up to the principal open plan reception room, dining area, and family kitchen.

With full height glazing and cascades of natural light, the large reception and entertaining area have Oak timber flooring, a coffered ceiling with feature lighting, and a main living area with a large media screen surrounded by bespoke shelving and joinery.

There is an adjoining 8-seat dining area with the reception space leading to the large fully fitted family kitchen which has a central kitchen island/breakfast bar crafted from a black of veined marble, complete with sleek white kitchen units with marble worktops and glass-fronted cabinets with exquisite bronze detailing.

The penthouse roof terrace is landscaped and fully furnished, with external lighting and its own power and water supply. The terrace has been designed as an outside living and entertaining space perfect for al-fresco dining, sun lounging, or simply taking in the ever-changing panorama and breathtaking vistas that are assured at being over 400 feet above the London Docklands.

The lower floor of the duplex houses the VIP bedroom suites and bathrooms. The principal bedroom suite provides stunning views of Canary Wharf’s towers and has bespoke lacquered wardrobes and a luxurious ensuite bathroom finished with stone floors and walls, a bathtub, and a separate walk-in shower, complete with bespoke fitted vanity units with stone countertops.
