Set on the sixth floor of a contemporary Cavendish Square development, this chain-free one-bedroom flat offers a practical open-plan layout, private balcony and concierge service. At about 544 sq ft the apartment feels like a typical central-London one-bed: bright living space, integrated storage and a double bedroom suited to a single professional or couple.
Transport is a clear strength: Gallions Reach DLR is roughly 0.3 miles away, giving fast links into Canary Wharf and the City. The lease is long (about 173 years remaining) and there’s no ground rent, making mortgage and longer-term planning straightforward. Annual service charge is circa £1,800 and council tax sits in an affordable band.
Be realistic about the local context. The wider area scores as deprived with above-average crime statistics; some buyers will weigh that against price and rental demand. Heating is provided via a community scheme, which can affect running costs and control compared with an individual boiler. Overall, this is a convenient, well-presented urban flat that suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking a practical Canary Wharf base with immediate access to transport.
