This well-presented, chain-free apartment sits in the Seacon Wharf development close to Canary Wharf. The open-plan living/kitchen leads onto a south-facing balcony with embankment views, and the layout is compact and efficiently arranged for single occupants or couples.
Residents benefit from concierge, secure gated entry, allocated off-street parking and on-site leisure facilities. The property has a long lease (978 years) and sits in a managed development with landscaped communal areas and good broadband and mobile coverage.
Notable running costs include a service charge of about £3,500 per year and an annual ground rent of £700. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than gas or communal systems, which may mean higher energy bills compared with gas-heated homes.
The apartment is best suited to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking a low-maintenance city base with excellent transport links to Canary Wharf and central London. The compact footprint requires careful furniture planning but offers straightforward rental appeal and long-term security from the very long lease.
