Summary - 478 CABLE STREET LONDON E1W 3DR
2 bed 1 bath Maisonette
Spacious two-bed maisonette with balcony and lift, close to Shadwell transport links.
Bright reception room with large windows and balcony
A bright two-bedroom maisonette arranged over two levels, this property offers spacious living and a private balcony in the heart of Wapping. The reception room benefits from large windows and an open feel, while a modern separate kitchen provides practical everyday space. The apartment totals approximately 845 sq ft — a generous footprint for a city two-bed.
The scheme sits within a secure purpose-built block with lift access and is moments from shops on Commercial Road and transport links (Shadwell nearby). Local amenities and several well-rated primary and secondary schools are within walking distance, making it practical for first-time buyers wanting strong local connections.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold and constructed before 1900 with solid brick walls (no confirmed insulation), so buyers should be aware of potential retrofit or maintenance costs to improve thermal efficiency. There is one main bathroom plus a separate WC; broadband speeds are average. Crime is recorded as average and the wider area shows higher levels of deprivation, which may influence resale or rental yields.
Overall this maisonette will suit a first-time buyer or investor looking for a centrally located two-bedroom with immediate liveable accommodation and scope to add value through energy upgrades or cosmetic refurbishment. Flood risk is low and the building’s lift and balcony add everyday convenience in an inner-city location.
