Private balcony with direct South Dock views
Set on South Dock, this two-bedroom, two-bath apartment delivers 770 sqft of practical living with a private balcony and direct water views. The layout is traditional and well-proportioned, suited to professionals wanting quick access to Canary Wharf or investors seeking a strong rental location. Allocated off-street parking and a share of freehold are useful ownership perks.
The building is modern (circa 1996–2002) and double-glazed; the living room benefits from high ceilings and ample natural light. Heating is via electric storage heaters and the main fuel is electricity — an economical or comfort trade-off worth noting depending on usage and tariffs. The property is chain free and offered ready to move into but will suit buyers who value location over large internal space.
Important practical points: the service charge is above average (£4,936 pa) and council tax is described as expensive, which affects ongoing costs. The local area is inner-city cosmopolitan with excellent mobile and broadband connectivity, many amenities, and fast links to Canary Wharf, but recorded crime levels are high in the immediate area. Flood risk is very low.
Overall, this is a convenient dockside flat for someone prioritising a waterside setting and quick Wharf access. It will appeal to professionals wanting a low-maintenance base or investors targeting strong rental demand, provided they accept higher running costs and the urban crime context.
