Modern fifth-floor apartment with long lease and residents' gym, ideal for first-time buyers.
Private balcony with direct canal views
This fifth-floor, one-bedroom apartment in Explorer’s Wharf offers a bright open-plan living space with a private balcony and direct Limehouse Cut canal views. The contemporary finish, integrated kitchen appliances and generous built-in storage make the 550 sq ft layout easy to live in from day one.
Residents benefit from secure entry, lift access, a private gym and cycle storage. Transport links are strong: Westferry DLR is about 0.6 miles away and Canary Wharf is reachable on foot or by a short DLR ride, putting central London and financial hubs within easy reach.
Practical details support peace of mind: the lease has around 992 years remaining and there is no chain. Annual service charge and ground rent apply and are modest for the development, but buyers should factor these into running costs.
Be aware of the local context: the wider area scores high on deprivation metrics despite low crime and excellent mobile/broadband connectivity. The flat is leasehold and would suit someone who values canal-side living, transport convenience and a well-maintained modern block, rather than those seeking a quiet suburban setting.
