Bright two-bedroom apartment on St Anne Street offers compact, well-laid-out waterside living in Limehouse. At about 599 sq ft the apartment delivers two double bedrooms, an ensuite plus a family bathroom, a private balcony with canal views and a residents' roof garden — features that suit first-time buyers seeking an attractive central base with good transport links (Westferry DLR 0.3 mile).
Practical running costs are mixed: the property is on a long lease (982 years) and has an EPC B, but it sits within a community heating scheme and carries a high average service charge (£2,222) plus a relatively high ground rent (£700). The local area is inner-city and described as deprived with higher crime rates; buyers should weigh proximity to amenities and transport against these factors.
This apartment is best for buyers who prioritise location, transport and canal-side living over generous internal space. It’s ready to occupy with modern finishes and fast broadband/mobile availability, but budget for ongoing service charges and consider local safety and amenity factors when viewing.
