Set beside Greenland Dock, this one-bedroom apartment delivers bright, waterside living with fast connections to central London. Large windows fill the open-plan living/kitchen with light and the nearby Southwark Park and riverside promenade extend your living space outdoors. The building’s modern-industrial, warehouse-style character gives the flat visual appeal and a sense of place.
Practical details suit first-time buyers: a 516 sqft layout with an average-sized bedroom, double glazing, an EPC B and very low flood risk. Surrey Quays Overground (≈0.2 miles) and Canada Water Underground (≈0.4 miles) are within easy walking distance, which keeps commuting straightforward and supports rental demand if you ever decide to let.
Be clear about costs and constraints: the property is leasehold with about 95 years remaining, an annual service charge around £2,000 and electric storage heating (no communal gas). Storage heaters and electric fuel can increase running costs compared with gas heating. Crime is reported above average for the area, so factor local safety measures into plans.
For a first-time buyer who values waterside character, nearby green space and very good transport links, this apartment is a convenient, well-located entry into the market. It’s also suitable for an investor seeking steady rental demand, though running costs and service charges should be included in affordability calculations.
