Summary - 26-27 Basin Approach E14 7JA
4 bed 3 bath Flat
Exceptionally large 4-bed duplex with wrap-around terrace, marina access and three parking spaces.
Rare 2,722 sq ft duplex penthouse across two floors
This rare duplex penthouse offers expansive, flexible living across 2,722 sq ft on the 5th and 6th floors, ideal for a family or executive household seeking space and entertaining rooms in a central Docklands location. The top-floor open-plan reception and kitchen open onto a substantial wrap-around terrace with west-to-east aspects, creating a dramatic social hub with strong natural light and marina/city views. The master suite is generous and has its own balcony; two further bedrooms also have en suite bathrooms, plus a separate TV room and utility room for family use.
Practical benefits include three secure underground parking spaces, 24-hour concierge and a very long lease (approx. 172 years). The property is offered chain-free, which can speed completion. Its position on Basin Approach places Limehouse DLR/rail station within around 250 metres’ walk, with easy links to Canary Wharf and the City and a wide range of local amenities on Narrow Street and Commercial Road.
Buyers should note clear ongoing costs: a high service charge (approx. £16,145 pa) and very expensive council tax. Heating is electric with room heaters rather than a communal gas/heating system, which may raise running costs. The apartment is leasehold and was formed by combining two units—this creates generous space but could mean non-standard layouts and future maintenance considerations. Double glazing is present but install dates are unknown.
Overall, this apartment is a standout, spacious city penthouse with strong transport links and private parking, suited to buyers prioritising internal space, terraces and convenience. It will particularly suit families or professionals who can accommodate the higher service and running costs and who value a rare large duplex in Limehouse Marina.
