Nammu Rivermead, Richmond upon Thames

Rivermead is a Grade II listed property in Kingston Upon Thames, just a few seconds' walk from the River Thames. Nammu operates the building, which opened in late 2023 following a full refurbishment, and the result keeps its original character fully intact alongside the practicalities of a modern office.

Ornate details, high ceilings and original fireplaces run through the working floors, giving the day a sense of occasion that most refurbished offices can't match. Meeting rooms are on hand for client calls, bike storage and shower facilities suit anyone arriving on two wheels, and the communal kitchen and breakout space offer a proper change of scene between tasks. Disabled access and 24-hour entry mean the building works around however the day happens to run.

Hampton Wick station is four minutes on foot, and Kingston station is a fourteen-minute walk, both within easy reach for anyone moving around south-west London. Kingston Upon Thames itself brings a strong run of riverside cafes, pubs and restaurants, with the town centre's shops and bars close enough for an after-work stop. The riverside setting gives this part of Kingston a calmer, more residential feel than much of the rest of the town.
