Set on London City Island, this two double-bedroom apartment offers generous open-plan living with two private balconies and far-reaching London skyline views. Rooms are bright with high ceilings, a modern fitted kitchen and principal en-suite — a straightforward, comfortable home or a turnkey rental for professionals.
Residents benefit from extensive on-site amenities: a concierge, landscaped communal gardens and access to the City Island Social Club with gym, pool and spa. Transport is excellent, with Canning Town, Royal Victoria DLR and the Crossrail interchange close by, plus frequent buses and a short walk to Canary Wharf.
Practical points are clear and factual: the property is leasehold (very long lease of 985 years), with an above-average service charge (£7,000) and a notable ground rent (£750). Council tax is described as very expensive. These running costs are important for budgeting and for investors assessing yield.
Overall this is a modern, well-specified flat in a sought-after riverside development — ideal for buyers wanting low-maintenance living with strong transport links, or investors targeting assured demand from City and Canary Wharf commuters. Be aware of the higher ongoing charges when comparing total ownership costs.
