Streamlight by Swan Housing Association

Description

Streamlight offers an exciting future, combining the advantages of living in London in a chic new eco-friendly apartment, with the benefits of a minimal commute, perhaps even a walk, into the office. Set in the heart of London’s Docklands, a vibrant community with an abundance of leisure activities on the doorstep, Streamlight apartments enjoy fabulous views across the river taking in the O2 Arena in one direction, or the iconic One Canada Square building at Canary Wharf in another. The Olympic Village at Stratford is a short DLR ride away, offering a multitude of opportunities to see the Games in 2012 and enjoy the world class facilities thereafter.

Leisure facilities

Streamlight is situated within London’s wider working and residential communities which stretch from Clerkenwell to City Airport and from the Barbican to Tower Bridge. London offers access to the world’s most successful businesses.

It is also perfectly placed for those who delight in cultural activities with leading arts venues, heritage sites and shopping amenities close by. Explore along the Thames riverside and reach out to celebrated arts performances at The Royal Festival Hall and The National Theatre.

View awe-inspiring visual art collections at the Tate Modern and the Hayward Gallery and see the history of London come to life at the Tower of London.

London’s Docklands, once the hub of world shipping has enjoyed a renaissance in the past 20 years, emerging proudly as a great place to live as well as a thriving district for commerce and industry.

Blackwall Way, where Streamlight stands in the North East corner of the Isle of Dogs, is exceptionally well placed to enjoy the many aspects of work, rest and play that the area offers. It is a few minutes walk to Canary Wharf from Streamlight – a great opportunity to opt out of public transport and opt in to a healthy commute to a nearby office.

With the Docklands Light Railway just a few minutes walk away at Blackwall, the rest of London is, as they say, your oyster. But with so much to do just a stone’s throw from home you’ll be sure to spend a large proportion of your time enjoying the neighbourhood’s own attractions.

Billingsgate Market is the place to buy the freshest fish and shellfish, the O2 Arena offers a fantastic event programme of top acts, and you’ll be spoilt for choice with the variety of superb shops, pubs and restaurants locally.

Local shopping

Enjoy shopping? Indoor shopping malls at Westfield and Canary Wharf provide a modern and contemporary approach. However, if you prefer a leisurely day surrounding yourself with beautiful fashion boutiques, cafes and restaurants for every palate then Covent Garden, with its street entertainers, is the perfect stop for you to be in the heart of this magnificent city.

Nearest schools:

• Woolmore Primary School (0.3 miles) 
• Tower Hamlets College - Secondary (0.5 miles) 
• Culloden Primary School (0.5 miles) 

Transport links

International travel from London City Airport is particularly handy for a range of business and leisure destinations and Gatwick, Heathrow and Stansted are also extremely accessible.

The Blackwall Tunnel close by leads the way by car to South London, the A20 and A21, while the A13 and A12 major arterial roads take drivers eastwards to the M25 and M11.
