A bright, high-spec one-bedroom apartment on the third floor of a modern development beside Greenland Dock. The 639 sqft home includes an open-plan living area, a generous bedroom with fitted wardrobe, a large covered balcony and a separate 65 sqft ground-floor storage unit with high ceilings. Built in 2016 and immaculately maintained, it benefits from integrated appliances, underfloor-heated bathroom, lift access, concierge and superfast Hyperoptic broadband.
Practical strengths include an EPC B rating, 238 years remaining on the lease and chain-free sale, making this straightforward for first-time buyers or investors. The shared rooftop terrace and tranquil dockside walks give a leafy, surprisingly calm feel despite the inner-city setting. Transport links are strong: Canada Water and Surrey Quays are walkable, and River Bus services are close by.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold property with an annual service charge of £4,372 (year to April 2026) and ground rent £523.35 pa (RPI-linked review next due March 2034). On-street permit parking only. The local area scores as deprived with above-average crime statistics—factors to consider for some buyers and investors.
Overall this is a well-presented, low-maintenance urban flat with good long-lease security and storage, suited to first-time purchasers or buy-to-let investors seeking strong connectivity and future area uplift from nearby regeneration.
