This fifth-floor, one-bedroom apartment in Explorer’s Wharf offers a modern, low-maintenance home with direct canal views from a private balcony. The open-plan living area and integrated kitchen deliver a bright, contemporary space ideal for first-time buyers or professionals seeking easy city access. Lift access, a long lease (992 years) and chain-free sale make purchase straightforward.
Residents benefit from on-site amenities including a private gym and secured cycle storage, plus generous built-in storage and good broadband and mobile signal. Transport links are strong: Westferry DLR is within walking distance and buses and Mile End Tube provide swift routes to Canary Wharf and central London.
Practical costs and location realities are stated clearly: the property is leasehold with an average service charge of £1,485 and a small ground rent of £250. The wider area is classified as very deprived, and the development sits in an inner-city, mixed-employment neighbourhood — factors to weigh for lifestyle or rental prospects.
Overall this is an attractively specified, move-in-ready one-bedroom with excellent lease security and waterside appeal. It suits buyers who prioritise location, convenience and contemporary finish, but who are comfortable with service charges and an inner-city setting.
