UNCLE Elephant & Castle, Residential tower in Elephant and Castle, London, United Kingdom
UNCLE Elephant & Castle is a 45-story residential tower located in the Elephant and Castle district of London. The building contains apartments with fully equipped kitchens and furnished interiors that follow a consistent design approach.
The tower was completed in 2018 and introduced the build-to-rent housing model to the Southwark area. This marked a shift in how residential developments approached long-term rental properties in south London.
The tower functions as a social hub for residents through its shared spaces that encourage interaction and community building. These communal areas shape how people connect in their daily lives.
The building offers 24-hour concierge service and onsite gym facilities for residents to use. Maintenance and repair requests are handled within two days.
Each apartment integrates technology systems such as high-speed internet and digital temperature controls throughout the units. This level of automation was relatively uncommon in London residential buildings when the tower opened.
