Two double bedrooms and two bathrooms, over 840 sq ft
Set on Fishguard Way in the secure Galleons Lock development, this bright two-bedroom apartment offers more than 840 sq ft of open-plan living and direct river views from the balcony. The layout suits first-time buyers, couples or investors seeking a low-maintenance city base with allocated underground parking and 24-hour on-site security.
Internally the apartment is well presented with two double bedrooms, two bathrooms and a large living/kitchen area with generous glazing that maximises light. The building dates from the early 2000s and benefits from an extended 173-year lease, an EWS1 A1 rating and fast broadband — useful for home working.
Buyers should note the running costs: an average annual service charge of around £3,301 and above-average council tax. Heating is by electric storage heaters, which may be more expensive than gas alternatives for some households. Mobile signal is average; however the location is well connected to Galleons Reach and King George V DLR stations and local bus routes.
Overall this is a practical riverside apartment in an affluent, low-crime area with secure parking and communal management in place. It will suit purchasers wanting a move-in-ready home close to transport links or investors attracted to reliable rental demand in the locality.
