Summary - Flat 39 Ensign House Tavern Quay, Rope Street, LONDON SE16 7EX
2 bed 2 bath Apartment
Contemporary first-floor apartment with concierge and excellent transport links.
805 sq ft of open-plan living with private balcony and dock views
A bright, contemporary two-bedroom apartment on the first floor of Ensign House, offering about 805 sq ft of well-planned living space. The open-plan kitchen/living area leads onto a private balcony with views across Greenland Dock, creating a relaxing waterside aspect for morning coffee or evening downtime. The principal bedroom includes an en-suite and fitted wardrobes; a second double and a family bathroom complete the accommodation.
Practical features include abundant hallway storage, a 24-hour concierge and excellent transport links — Surrey Quays and Nelson Dock Pier are both about 0.4 miles away, with Canada Water and Rotherhithe stations also within easy reach. The long lease (circa 238 years) and established management arrangements give ownership certainty, and fast broadband plus strong mobile signal suit home-working needs.
Buyers should note there is no private garden and outdoor space is limited to the balcony; the building relies on communal amenity rather than private grounds. Annual service charges are significant (c. £6,787.60 for 2025), council tax band is above average and the local area records above-average crime statistics — factors to budget for and consider when weighing suitability.
This apartment will appeal to first-time buyers seeking a move-in-ready, well-specified home with excellent transport and commuter access to Canary Wharf and central London. It may also interest buy-to-let investors: an indicative rental figure implies reasonable returns, though running costs and local area characteristics should be factored into yield calculations.
