For Sale by "Modern Method of Auction" A beautiful 2nd floor apartment boasting breathtaking views of the historic Ropemakers Fields, charming Regents Canal, and the iconic Canary Wharf skyline. Situated within a gated community comprising only 12 residences, it features a southwest-facing balcony and a private garage. Its prime location ensures convenient access to Canary Wharf, The City, and beyond.
Spanning over 80 square meters, this generously sized and bright apartment is meticulously designed to maximize the stunning views and bathe the interiors in natural light.
The spacious living area provides abundant space for both a lounge and dining area. Flooded with natural light through floor-to-ceiling doors and windows, it also provides access to a generous balcony showcasing views of the park, canal, and London skyline—an inviting retreat for relaxation. The living area seamlessly connects to the well-equipped kitchen, boasting an array of floor and wall cabinets, ample countertop space, and a selection of integrated appliances for added convenience.
The generous master bedroom boasts south-facing floor-to-ceiling windows and doors, which open onto a Juliette balcony, filling the space with natural light and providing breathtaking views of the park, canal, and London skyline. Complete with built-in wardrobes and ample room for additional bedroom furnishings, it also offers direct access to its private, well-equipped ensuite. The second bedroom, also south-facing and generously sized, offers space for fitted wardrobes and a compact office setup. Completing the accommodation is a well-appointed guest bathroom. Additionally, a hallway cupboard offers a convenient storage option.
The property includes its own garage ensuring a safe and secure parking solution along with extra storage space. The development is situated within the broader Basin estate, offering the convenience of a porter and 24-hour security service for added peace of mind.
The current owners have particularly appreciated the peace and quiet the apartment offers, as well as the sense of security provided by this small, private gated development—tucked away in a tranquil corner of the marina.
Limehouse offers peace and tranquillity wherever you look. Take a stroll down Narrow Street and admire some of the beautiful Georgian architecture, or maybe you would prefer to visit the historic basin with its array of boats and barges. The Regents Canal offers miles of towpaths with lots to discover on its route, or maybe take a picnic by the bandstand in Ropemakers Park. This is amazing considering how close you are to the bustling business centre of Canary Wharf.
