A historic Georgian townhouse dating from 1811 sits within Pier Head, a small enclave of period houses originally built for senior officials of the London Dock Company.
The refurbishment extends to the neighbouring building, a former custom house which is connected to the main house by a glazed link spanning the inner courtyard garden.
The additional accommodation provides home office space at ground floor level, with social spaces above that open onto views of the river Thames.
