This sixth-floor one-bedroom apartment offers clear panoramic views across the London skyline and a private balcony, making it an attractive compact home for a single buyer or couple. The reception room is well-proportioned and opens onto the balcony, extending usable living space. The fitted kitchen and three-piece bathroom are functional and present in a neutral, rental-ready condition.
Practical positives include good transport links to Canary Wharf and central London, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. At approximately 553 sq ft (51.4 sqm) the layout provides sensible circulation between living and sleeping areas, with built-in bedroom storage and large windows bringing generous natural light.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold flat with 88 years remaining, an annual service charge around £2,900 and a nominal ground rent of £10. Heating is by electric storage heaters, the building is a system-built block likely without modern wall insulation, and the glazing install date is unknown — these factors may affect running costs and future upgrade needs.
The area is inner-city and very deprived with higher crime levels than average; that context affects investor yield expectations and personal security considerations. For a buyer wanting a central, well-connected one-bed with skyline views — whether a first-time buyer or a buy-to-let investor willing to accept management costs and potential refurbishment — this flat represents straightforward urban living with clear improvement opportunities.
