Second-floor riverside apartment with large private balcony
A bright, spacious two-bedroom apartment in a modern riverside development, this second-floor home offers open-plan living, a large balcony and generous room sizes across approximately 910 sq ft. Floor-to-ceiling windows and architrave lighting create an airy, contemporary feel; the kitchen is sleek with integrated appliances and undercabinet lighting for a clean finish. Both double bedrooms have fitted wardrobes, with a chic bathroom plus an ensuite shower room.
Residents benefit from 24-hour concierge, a communal gym and secure access, and the building is EWS1 B1 compliant. Transport links are strong: Royal Victoria DLR is nearby, Custom House Crossrail station is a short journey away, and London City Airport is easily accessible — useful for commuters and frequent flyers. The lease is very long at 990 years and the property sits in an established area popular with renting families.
Notable running costs and local context: the service charge is £4,256 pa (above average) and ground rent is £450 pa; heating is provided via a community scheme, which can limit individual control over costs and timings. The wider area is classed as deprived despite local pockets of investment, so buyers should weigh long-term regeneration potential against current social indicators.
This property suits those seeking a comfortable, modern riverside home with excellent transport links and communal amenities, or investors targeting strong rental demand from established renting families and city professionals. The layout and balcony offer good scope for entertaining and personalised finishing touches.
