This spacious two-bedroom apartment on Narrow Street offers bright, south-facing living with panoramic River Thames and Canary Wharf views. The large open-plan reception flows to two private balconies, creating excellent indoor-outdoor entertaining space and generous natural light throughout.
Comfort and convenience are strong here: the building benefits from concierge service, video entry and double glazing, while the apartment includes an en suite, a separate L-shaped kitchen and two bathrooms. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal suit home working, and Limehouse DLR plus riverside walks put Canary Wharf and the City within easy reach.
Be clear about running costs and tenure: the property is leasehold (share of freehold) with an unusually long lease (c. 971 years), a higher-than-average service charge (£6,000 p.a.) and an annual ground rent (£250). Heating is electric via a boiler and radiators, and council tax is described as expensive — factors worth budgeting for.
This home will suit a first-time buyer or professional couple seeking a ready-to-live-in riverside base with strong transport links and local amenities. It also offers scope for minor cosmetic updates if desired; the building dates from the late 1990s with double glazing installed before 2002.
