High-floor two-bedroom apartment in Saffron Wharf, part of the London Dock redevelopment, offers turnkey buy-to-let appeal with premium communal amenities. The open-plan living space, private balcony and two bathrooms suit professional tenants or sharers; the apartment’s 773 sq.ft. and modern specification minimise immediate refurbishment needs.
Residents benefit from extensive on-site facilities: 24-hour concierge, gym, swimming pool, cinema room, virtual golf suite, communal terrace and garden — all strong rental marketing points for short- and long-term lets. Excellent transport links and a dense local leisure and dining scene increase tenant demand in this inner-city location.
Practical considerations are clear and should factor into yield calculations. The property is leasehold (peppercorn ground rent) with a very long lease remaining (964 years) but carries a high annual service charge of £5,300 and above-average council tax. Heating is provided by a community scheme, so check metering and costs before purchase.
Overall, this is a modern, low-maintenance investment in a very affluent, well-connected part of E1W. The strong amenity package supports premium rents, but higher running costs and service charges will affect net yields and should be modelled by prospective buyers.
