Swedish Quays is a complex of 95 flats and houses. Built in the late 1980s by Roger Malcom Homes and designed by David Price and Gordon Cullen, the latter being Britain's most influential planning theorist and architectural illustrator of the post-war period. The development was given Grade II listed status in 2018 due to its multi-layered detailing, use of good quality materials and its contextually astute design. There are two communal gardens in the centre of the courtyards.

Set in peaceful surroundings, the Thames Path and Greenland Pier are just moments away, providing a scenic commute to the City and Canary Wharf via the river bus. Canada Water (Jubilee & Overground) and Surrey Quays (Overground) stations are within walking distance, as are local amenities, including Surrey Docks Fitness & Watersports Centre, cafés, restaurants, supermarkets, and a yoga studio within the nearby Plough Way developments.

The property stands to benefit from substantial investment in the area, including the £5.6 billion, 53-acre Canada Water Masterplan, with London’s first new high street in over a century. Additionally, a new electric ferry service, launching later this year, will provide six crossings per hour for pedestrians and cyclists between Rotherhithe and Canary Wharf.

Leasehold with a share of the freehold. The service charge is £1,795 for the year to September 2025 (includes building insurance and external upkeep), there is no ground rent to pay and the lease has 961 years remaining. Southwark Council Tax Band: F.
