Set across two floors, this bright two-bedroom duplex maisonette offers a practical entry into Wapping living. The property has its own front door, allocated parking directly outside and direct access to well-kept communal gardens — a rare combination for a central location. The south-facing reception room brings generous daylight while built-in storage and an expansive kitchen-diner make everyday living straightforward.
Practical benefits include a share of the freehold, a very long 993‑year lease, recent major works completed to the block, EWS1 compliance and resident amenities such as a gym, secure bike storage and on-site porter. Broadband is ultrafast and the location is well served by riverside walks, parks, cafés and easy walking links to Tower Hill and the City.
Be aware of a few trade-offs: heating is all-electric via room heaters, which can increase running costs compared with gas systems; the service charge is approximately £3,600 per year; and the lease currently prohibits pets. The home was constructed in the 1930s–40s with solid brick walls (no added cavity insulation assumed), so consider insulation and heating upgrades if lower energy bills are a priority.
This maisonette suits a first-time buyer or a couple seeking a central, characterful base with outside space and parking. It offers straightforward living now with sensible potential to add value through energy improvements and modernisation of finishes.
