Positioned on the top floor of the highly regarded London City Island development, this exceptional two-bedroom penthouse offers an impressive 1,239 sq ft of accommodation including its substantial 347 sq ft private terrace. Presented in excellent condition throughout and offered chain free, the property combines generous internal space with an extraordinary amount of private outdoor space and far-reaching views across London.

The standout feature is undoubtedly the expansive wrap-around terrace, providing an impressive extension of the living space and multiple areas to sit, dine and entertain while taking in the surrounding views. Inside, the apartment benefits from floor-to-ceiling glazing, creating an exceptionally bright and open feel across the principal living space. The reception room is arranged around a contemporary open-plan kitchen, which is fitted with a comprehensive range of integrated appliances and provides an ideal setting for both everyday living and entertaining.

Both bedrooms are genuine doubles and offer excellent proportions, with fitted storage incorporated into each. The principal bedroom benefits from its own stylish en-suite bathroom, while a further well-appointed bathroom serves the rest of the apartment. Storage is well catered for throughout the property, adding to the practicality of what is otherwise a particularly impressive penthouse residence. A private parking space is also included.

Residents of London City Island have access to an extensive selection of on-site amenities, including 24-hour concierge and security, a residents' gym, spa facilities, sauna, steam room and an outdoor heated swimming pool, alongside beautifully maintained communal gardens.

The Island is also home to the English National Ballet, while the Royal Academy of Music is currently in the process of moving in, further establishing London City Island as a home for the creative community. This is a real asset to the area, adding to its distinctive character and appeal.

The Island is also home to Trinity Buoy Wharf, a place rich in history and creativity, which is home to Longplayer and numerous sculptures by artist Andrew Baldwin. There is also an art school supported by King Charles, further adding to the Island's growing reputation as a hub for arts and culture. Together, these institutions and creative spaces provide an insight into why the Island is such a special and unique place to live.

For families, the Island also benefits from a nursery school, an important amenity for new and growing families, while the development is also particularly pet friendly.
