Sky-High Living: Inside London’s Ultra-Luxury Penthouses

London’s skyline is home to a new elite of sky‑high living. Ultra‑luxury penthouses have emerged in top developments such as One Hyde Park in Knightsbridge, 1 Mayfair in Mayfair, 60 Curzon, Wardian London, One Park Drive, and iconic towers like Pan Peninsula and DAMAC Tower Nine Elms. These residences combine prestige, panoramic views, and bespoke craftsmanship.

At One Hyde Park, apartments start around £5 million for one‑bedrooms, while penthouses have traded in the realm of £136 million to nearly £200 million—often touted as the most expensive residential in Britain. Just down the lane, 1 Mayfair, a new John Caudwell development, is projecting price tags topping £200 million for each of its three penthouses in a boutique Portland‑stone building with interiors by Robert A.M. Stern and Juan Pablo Molyneux.

60 Curzon, slated for completion in 2025, offers two penthouses in a 32‑unit Art Deco–inspired building; prices are by request, but one‑bedroom flats are listed at around USD 4.45 million, two‑beds from $13.95 million, so penthouse pricing is expected in the tens of millions.

At One Park Drive overlooking Canary Wharf, duplex penthouses on floors 56–57 launched in late 2022; while exact pricing is private, the building’s penthouse won “Best Apartment” honors and typical penthouses in similar developments fetch upward of £10–20 million.Most expensive Apartments For Sale in London.

Each penthouse combines expansive terraces with views from Hyde Park to Canary Wharf, interiors with marble, walnut, silk‑lined walls, and concierge, spa and valet amenities. Security is discreet and high-level, and service charges—often tens of thousands per year—underscore the exclusivity.

In ultra‑luxury London penthouses, sky‑high addresses become symbols of wealth and taste—where the cityscape is framed through floor‑to‑ceiling glazing, and homes are less about space, more about making a statement above it all.
