Set on the 4th floor of Berglen Court, this generous two-bedroom apartment offers 963 sq ft of marina-facing living with one of the development’s largest private terraces. The dual-aspect reception room and semi open-plan kitchen create bright, flexible space for entertaining and day-to-day life, while uninterrupted Limehouse Marina views give a strong sense of place.
Practical benefits include secure private parking in a garage, a 24-hour concierge service, lift access, and a long lease (approx. 173 years). The principal bedroom has an ensuite and there is a stylish guest shower room, making the layout convenient for couples, sharers or a small family wanting waterside living close to Canary Wharf and Limehouse DLR.
Buyers should note the property uses electric storage heaters and has double glazing installed before 2002, which could affect ongoing energy costs. The service charge is relatively high at approximately £7,500 per year and ground rent is £350 annually; council tax is described as expensive. These are important running-cost considerations alongside the leasehold tenure.
Chain free sale, strong local amenities and excellent transport links make this a practical choice for professionals or investors seeking a well-sized, marina-front apartment with immediate occupation potential. Some updating to heating and windows would improve energy performance and running costs, and may also add value.
