New Homes in Tower Bridge
With Tower Hamlets at its northern end and Southwark to the south, the Tower Bridge area is dominated by its eponymous international landmark. Straddling London’s beating heart - the River Thames - houses near Tower Bridge put you close to all the city’s biggest draws.
Since opening in 1894, Tower Bridge has seen a lot of change as Central London expands ever outwards.

Things to see and do in Tower Bridge
There’s only one place to start in this area. Tower Bridge may me relatively young in London terms, but it has a grand reputation and is a jewel in the crown of the capital’s stunning skyline. Speaking of crown jewels, the neighbouring Tower of London is one of the most famous fortifications you’ll find anywhere in the world. Some of the tower’s exhibitions aren’t for the faint-hearted, but you can regain your composure when you stroll back across the bridge to the South Bank area.
Here you can enjoy top cultural draws such as Shakespeare’s Globe and the Tate Modern, gaze up at, or indeed down from, the Shard, and shop at the historic Borough Market. Stroll through Potters Fields Park with its fantastic views of Tower Bridge, explore the latest offerings at the Southbank Centre and head to green spaces like Southwark Park when it’s time to escape the hustle and bustle for a while.
Education
The local school for younger children, Tower Bridge Primary, is on Fair Street and classed as good by Ofsted. The same goes for Snowsfields Primary, while St Joseph’s Roman Catholic Primary, Riverside Primary and St Paul’s Whitechapel CofE have been classed as outstanding by the education board. St Michael’s Catholic College is the outstanding local secondary, while other strong options include Harris Academy Bermondsey and Compass School Southwark.
Tower Bridge transport links
Tower Bridge has all the great transport links you’d expect of such a central spot. Tower Hill Tube station is on the Circle and District lines, and just steps from Fenchurch Street train station. On the south side of the river is London Bridge train station, while Borough has an Underground station on the Northern line. You can also catch a number of local bus routes and ferries from Tower Millennium Pier and London Bridge City Pier.
The Tower Bridge property scene
With a selection of period homes, converted warehouses and luxury apartments, house prices in this area are considerably higher than the London average. From Georgian townhouses to flats with highly desirable views of Tower Bridge, you can also find newly built homes in the area from time to time.
These don’t last for long though, so it’s a good idea to be on board with a scheme like our Movemaker initiative when you’re house-hunting in and around Tower Bridge. Offers like this are a great way to save money, reduce your stress levels, and get ahead of the competition when you buy a new home in London.
