Set on the riverfront at Papermill Wharf, this unusually large one-bedroom apartment offers about 825 sq ft of bright, dual-aspect living with direct views across the Thames and Canary Wharf. The private balcony, secure underground parking and on-site concierge add convenience and lifestyle appeal for commuting professionals or couples seeking riverside living close to Canary Wharf.
The home has a separate fitted kitchen, generous bedroom with fitted wardrobes and a roomy bathroom. The building benefits from lift access, CCTV entry phone and an EWS1 certificate rated B1 (expiry 10 March 2025). The property is chain free and held on a share of freehold with a very long lease (996 years).
Buyers should note practical considerations: heating is electric via room heaters, the EPC rating is E, and the annual service charge is relatively high at £6,102. Council tax is above average and local recorded crime is above average — factors to weigh alongside the strong location and parking provision.
This apartment suits a purchaser looking for a spacious one-bedroom riverside home with parking and easy access to Canary Wharf, or an investor targeting strong rental demand in a well-connected central location. The flat is largely move-in ready but has scope for cosmetic updates and energy-efficiency improvements.
