Fishguard Way, London, E16

Smartly finished and substantially spacious, this two bedroom, two bathroom third floor apartment has a wealth of social space and striking views of The Thames, all just a short walk from the Docklands Light Railway. You’re also buying a share of the freehold.

Blonde hardwood floors run underfoot, giving way to terracotta style tiles in the kitchen and carpet in the two double bedrooms. The riverside balcony is a standout and you also have the London gold dust addition of private underground parking.

King George V station for the DLR is just ten minutes on foot from your new front door, while cross the river on the Woolwich Ferry ñ just fifteen minutes away - for a marvellous choice of wining and dining spots. You also have the greenery of Royal Victoria Gardens on your doorstep.

YOUR NEW HOME

Everything starts with a proper hallway for a full house feel. The double doors straight ahead open up onto your 250 square foot open plan lounge and kitchen, where a generous suite of honey coloured timber cabinets and dark quartz style counters artfully zone the kitchen area.

It’s all laid semi open to the lounge, a substantial social space between the kitchen and the doors out to your balcony. Itís the perfect spot for a coffee or evening glass of wine, and nicely sheltered so you can enjoy the riverside views all year round.

Back out in the hallway, there’s some substantial integrated storage on the right ñ always a welcome bonus in London apartment living. Across the hall is your family bathroom, with smoky slate style vinyl underfoot, a full-sized tub and sleek integrated suite.

The principal bedroom is a 100 square foot double, softly carpeted with those elevated third floor views and an en suite shower room, smartly finished in more white tilework and slate coloured vinyl, and complete with dedicated shower cubicle.

Finally, bedroom two is a still more substantial double, totalling around 140 square feet, and finished in the same soft white paintwork, and with more rooftop views.

YOUR NEW NEIGHBOURHOOD

You’re part of a peaceful, residential neighbourhood here, part of the Royal Docks, just moments from the River Thames and spoilt for both blue and green natural space.

As well as the Thames itself you have the greenery of Royal Victoria Gardens just five minutes from your new front door. A little further afield Thames Barrier Park offers beautifully landscaped gardens and spectacular views of one of London's most famous landmarks.

The shops and amenities of Albert Road are close at hand, for all your day-to-day essentials along with traditional neighbourhood pubs like the Henley Arms and Royal Standard. Head east towards Royal Albert Wharf and you'll find still more wining and dining options, including Galyons Bar & Kitchen, a handsome waterside gastropub occupying the historic former Gallions Hotel.

For transport, King George V DLR station is your local connection, just ten minutes away on foot, with direct services towards Canning Town, Stratford and Bank. London City Airport is just one stop away, while Stratford opens up the Central, Jubilee and Elizabeth lines, London Overground and National Rail.

You can even catch the free Woolwich Ferry just fifteen minutes from your new front door, putting the historic Royal Arsenal and Woolwich town centre within easy reach. Here you'll find a fine choice of independent restaurants, cafes and pubs, including the characterful Dial Arch and The Guard House, both housed in the atmospheric old military architecture of the Royal Arsenal.

With the quiet pleasures of riverside living, plus the convenience of London on your doorstep, this is a superb choice for anyone who demands the best of both worlds.
