This bright two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment in Canary Wharf offers a practical city base with private balcony and direct views of the River Thames. Located on the second floor, the layout is traditional and suits everyday urban living, and the property is offered chain free with a long lease (968 years) and share of freehold — no ground rent to pay.
Practical benefits include an allocated off-street parking space and fast mobile and broadband connectivity, making the home convenient for commuting or hybrid working. South Quay and Crossharbour DLR stations are within walking distance, providing Bank in around 20 minutes and Greenwich nearby. The development sits next to the expanding Wood Wharf area, which will increase local amenity and potential demand.
Running costs require consideration: the service charge is higher than average at £4,005 per year and council tax is described as expensive. The wider area records above-average crime, so buyers should factor in security and insurance consequences. The living room shows signs of wear and would benefit from modernization to maximise appeal and resale value.
Overall, this apartment suits first-time buyers or professionals seeking a well-located, low-maintenance London home with river views and parking. It also presents rental potential to investors given the strong Canary Wharf rental market, though higher service charges and local crime levels should be weighed when calculating yields.
