This canal-facing two-bedroom apartment offers compact, well-arranged living in a quiet Limehouse location, ideal for first-time buyers seeking waterfront access and transport links to Canary Wharf. The layout includes a spacious reception, separate kitchen, two double bedrooms and two bathrooms, plus a Juliet balcony and private terrace to enjoy canal views.
Practical benefits include allocated off-street parking, an exceptionally long lease (971 years) and gas central heating with double glazing. The building is modern (early 1990s) and benefits from communal upkeep and a day porter for added convenience.
Buyers should note the property is small at about 468 sq ft, making it best suited to those accepting compact city living. Service charges (£6,128 pa) and a relatively high ground rent (£519 pa) are material ongoing costs and should be factored into affordability calculations.

Proximity to Limehouse Basin, the Thames and Canary Wharf benefits both lifestyle and commuter convenience.
