Set within a Grade II-listed Victorian warehouse, this generous two-bedroom conversion offers dramatic loft-style living across approximately 1,100 sq ft. South-facing Crittall windows, exposed brickwork and high timber beams create authentic industrial character, while a bright open-plan reception and a mezzanine-style study/walk-in wardrobe add flexible living and home-working space. Two allocated parking spaces, step-free access and fast fibre broadband add practical convenience for everyday life.
The apartment combines period features with modern comforts: quartz surfaces in the galley kitchen, underfloor heating in parts of the flat, and integrated appliances. With Custom House station and the Elizabeth Line 0.3 miles away, the location suits commuters and professionals wanting quick links to Canary Wharf and the City. The dockside setting also provides waterside leisure and local cafés, with good primary and secondary schools nearby.
Buyers should consider a few material points before viewing. The building’s listed status will restrict external and internal alterations and can complicate permissions. Annual service charge (£7,698) is above average and ground rent (£250) and council tax band F add to running costs. Main heating relies on electric room heaters in places; some solid-brick walls are likely uninsulated, which may affect heating bills and could require retrofit work.
Overall this is a striking, chain-free warehouse apartment that will suit purchasers who value scale, character and waterside living, and who are comfortable with ongoing running costs and listed-building constraints. The long lease (174 years) and two parking spaces are notable practical benefits.
