Gated development with 24-hour concierge and leisure suite
Immaculate, move-in condition; EPC rating B and EWS1 in place
Long lease (c.975–980 years) — low leasehold risk
Service charge c.£2,760pa; ground rent £170pa
Electric underfloor heating — higher running costs possible
Located in a very deprived area with very high local crime rates
Light-filled fifth-floor apartment with broad water views, presented in move-in condition and offered chain free. The open-plan living room opens onto a large paved terrace that extends the living space and showcases uninterrupted riverside outlooks — a rare external amenity for a one-bed in the city. The fitted kitchen includes integrated appliances and the property benefits from double glazing and electric underfloor heating throughout.
Century Wharf is a gated development with 24-hour concierge and an extensive leisure suite (pool, gym, sauna and spa). An allocated undercroft parking space and visitor bays are included, and an EWS1 certificate and EPC B are already in place. The lease is extremely long (circa 975–980 years) which removes a common leasehold concern.
Notable costs and area issues are set out plainly: annual service charges are c.£2,760 and ground rent is £170 per year. Heating is electric, which can mean higher running costs compared with gas; the area is identified as very deprived with a very high local crime statistic, and the neighbourhood has a strong student presence. The apartment is compact overall (approx. 603 sq ft) so it suits a single occupant, couple or investor seeking low-maintenance city-river living rather than a family home.
This is a practical, well-specified one-bedroom that will appeal to first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors who prioritise waterside views, communal leisure facilities and secure parking, and who accept the ongoing service charge and urban location characteristics.
