Set on the river in Seacon Tower, this one-bedroom apartment delivers bright, water-facing living with a private riverside balcony and communal gardens. The open-plan layout suits modern urban living and benefits from views across the Thames and easy access to Canary Wharf’s transport links and amenities.
Practical strengths include a very long lease (975 years), chain-free sale, on-site concierge, residents’ gym and secure gated access. The flat’s 470 sq ft layout is efficient for a single occupant or couple and is well placed for buy-to-let demand given nearby transport and local amenities.
Buyers should note the material running costs: a service charge of £4,700 per year (above average) and an unspecified ground rent. Main heating is by electric room heaters rather than gas central heating, and the property is compact — best suited to couples, singles or investors rather than families needing lots of space.
Overall this is a contemporary, conveniently located riverside flat offering ready access to Canary Wharf employment and leisure hubs. It represents clear appeal for first-time buyers or investors seeking a low-risk leasehold holding with strong rental potential, provided the higher service charge and electric heating are acceptable.
