Taffrail House, Burrells Wharf Square, Tower Hamlets, London, E14 3TG

A characterful two-bedroom apartment of 64 sq m on the ground floor of Beacon House, part of the gated riverside development of Burrells Wharf on the Isle of Dogs.

The flat has a warehouse feel throughout, with exposed brick walls, an original-style steel beam and wood-effect flooring.

The open-plan living room is lit by a wall of floor-to-ceiling double glazed windows and flows through to a white shaker-style kitchen with granite-effect worktops, a built-in oven and hob and a breakfast bar opening onto the living area.

Both double bedrooms have glazed doors looking out over the development’s courtyard garden, planted with flowers, giving a calm, leafy outlook. One bedroom has a mirrored built-in wardrobe.

The bathroom completes the accommodation. Heating and hot water are supplied by a communal system.

Residents enjoy an on-site gym and swimming pool, a 24-hour concierge and an allocated space in the secure underground car park.

With two double bedrooms, generous living space and a peaceful garden outlook, the flat would make an ideal home for a working family.

Canary Wharf is a short DLR ride away for the daily commute, the on-site gym and pool make it easy to fit exercise around a busy schedule, and the ground floor location makes everyday life with children or a buggy straightforward.

The property is ready to move into now, but the landlord is flexible on the start date. It can also be let furnished or unfurnished to suit the tenant.

Burrells Wharf sits on the Thames at the southern tip of the Isle of Dogs. Island Gardens DLR is within walking distance, with quick links to Canary Wharf, the City and Greenwich.

The Greenwich Foot Tunnel, riverside walks and Mudchute Park are all close by.
