4. Leasehold with ~234 years remaining; typical managed-development rules apply
5. Service charge circa £2,158 pa and separate ground rent payable
6. Compact/average 535 sq ft layout — limited internal space compared with houses
7. Excellent transport links to Canary Wharf and the City; fast broadband
8. Area classed as deprived despite very low crime; consider local factors
This fourth-floor one-bedroom apartment in Mellor House offers straightforward, modern living in Poplar with excellent transport links to Canary Wharf and the City. The large open-plan living area and balcony provide bright, airy space for daily life and entertaining, while built-in storage in the bedroom helps maximise the 535 sq ft layout. Residents benefit from a concierge, on-site gym and landscaped communal gardens, useful extras for convenience and rental appeal.
The property is leasehold with a long lease (around 234 years remaining) and typical new-build running costs: an annual service charge of about £2,158 and a ground rent noted in the particulars. The flat is an average-sized unit within a multi-block development, so internal space is compact compared with houses and nearby green private outdoor space is communal rather than private.
This apartment suits a first-time buyer seeking a low-maintenance city base or an investor targeting steady rental demand from nearby Canary Wharf and local amenities. The building is modern and appears well maintained; however buyers should factor service charges, ground rent and the inner-city setting — an area classed as deprived despite very low crime and excellent digital connectivity — into affordability calculations.
