A striking three-bedroom apartment on the second floor of a converted riverside warehouse, this property offers exceptional space and genuine river views. At nearly 1,926 sq ft, the layout feels more like a house than a flat, with an expansive reception room, high ceilings, exposed brickwork and original steel beams that create a dramatic living space. The private balcony projects over the Thames and is a rare, hard-to-replicate feature for city living.
The principal bedroom includes built-in wardrobes and an ensuite; two further double bedrooms and a separate modern shower room suit families or professionals needing dedicated work or guest rooms. The semi open-plan contemporary kitchen and defined dining area work well for everyday life and entertaining. Basement storage and permit on-street parking add practical benefits for long-stay needs.
Practical considerations are set out plainly: tenure is a share of freehold with an exceptionally long lease (949 years), but the service charge is above average at £4,338 and council tax is described as quite expensive. The building dates from the late 1960s–1970s and has solid brick walls with assumed lack of insulation; heating is electric boiler and radiators. The area is inner-city and cosmopolitan with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, though local crime rates are high.
This apartment suits buyers seeking a large, characterful riverside home with outstanding entertaining space and long-term tenure security. It will particularly appeal to families or professionals who value strong transport links and proximity to Narrow Street’s cafés and Canary Wharf amenities, while being prepared to manage service costs and some building-era limitations.
