Canary Wharf is a unique place to live and work.
Arising from the ashes of the traditional dock industries, the last 15 years
has seen Canary Wharf explode into a world-class financial and business centre,
with over 90,000 employees.
Canary Wharf - Apartments and more
To meet the demand from this young and dynamic
workforce, developers have constructed a wide-range of high-specification,
luxury accommodation. These range from family town houses to warehouse lofts,
penthouses and multi-million pound apartment blocks. Combined with smart
dockside bars, restaurants and designer shopping, this means that, if you are
looking for the best in urban lifestyle, a property in Canary Wharf is for you.
What should you think about?
These are just a few pointers for selecting
property within Canary Wharf:
·
Location – The defining
factor. How far do you want to be from transport or work? A view over the
Thames or the quays? Those with views
are much sought-after!
·
Transport and parking -
Parking is very limited but with good transport links – Jubilee line, DLR,
buses and river taxi – you can easily get to where you want to be.
·
Facilities –
Many developments include a fully fitted gymnasium, indoor private pool, and
even a cocktail bar!
·
Service Charges –
these can vary considerably depending on the facilities; ranging from £1500 for
smaller apartments up to £22,000 for desirable penthouses.
Discovery Dock is one of the leading residential developments in Canary Wharf. It
brings together all that’s best in a Canary Wharf property; fabulous waterside
location, great facilities and easy access to work and play.
The two Discovery Dock apartment buildings - Discovery Dock West and Discovery Dock East – overlook the water at South Dock, but their position on Marsh
Wall means that you are only 5 minutes walk from Canary Wharf’s business
centre, Underground and DLR stations.
