Set across two levels, this 718 sq ft duplex in Aragon Tower offers bright, open-plan living with sweeping river views and a private balcony. Large windows flood the reception with light and frame the waterfront outlook — a standout for commuters who value a calm riverside aspect after work. The building provides 24/7 concierge and secure communal spaces, helping create a settled, managed environment.
Practical features include two double bedrooms with built-in storage and a well-appointed bathroom. Transport links are excellent: Thames Clipper services to Canary Wharf and central London, plus nearby Overground and DLR connections make city commuting quick and reliable. The long lease (177 years) and average internal size make this a straightforward purchase for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking strong connectivity.
Buyers should note some ongoing costs and specifics: an above-average service charge of about £4,200pa and ground rent of £350pa, and the property relies on electric room heaters rather than a communal gas system. The apartment is leasehold and sits within a neighbourhood described as deprived in local metrics, though immediate local amenities, schools and transport links are strong.
Overall this is a practical, low-flood-risk riverside home with excellent transport and long lease security. It suits buyers wanting a manageable, modern flat with outdoor space and concierge services, but budget-conscious purchasers should factor in the service charge, ground rent and electric heating when calculating running costs.
