Occupying a prominent position in The Grainstore at Royal Victoria Dock, this striking two-bedroom duplex blends warehouse character with modern living. The upper floor delivers a dramatic open-plan living, dining and kitchen under double-height ceilings with exposed brick and large industrial windows, while a private terrace extends the social space. The lower level houses two generous double bedrooms, the principal with en-suite and its own balcony.
Practical benefits include secure entry, on-site concierge, a large 939 sq ft footprint and a long lease (circa 174 years). The location is a major selling point: Custom House (Elizabeth Line/DLR), the ExCeL and dockside amenities are all within easy reach, giving fast links to Canary Wharf, the City and central London.
Buyers should note the apartment is leasehold with an above-average service charge (circa £5,000 pa), an average ground rent (£300 pa) and relatively high council tax. Heating is electric via room heaters rather than gas central heating, which can affect running costs compared with gas-heated homes.
Overall, this property will suit professionals or a small family seeking a low-maintenance, characterful waterside home with strong transport links and entertaining space. There is clear potential for cosmetic personalisation, particularly if you desire alternative heating solutions or wish to reconfigure finishes to taste.
