Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Located in the riverside area of Wapping, this home is less than a ten-minute stroll from the Thames. You’ll also have the London landmarks of Tower Bridge and the Tower of London within a fifteen-minute walk. And for easy access to the rest of the capital, Wapping station is thirteen minutes away by foot. The home itself boasts a private balcony – the perfect spot to enjoy a drink from the mini bar – and a sociable, open-plan living area. We think this contemporary pad is a great option for a couple or solo traveller wanting a comfortable base in a convenient location.

Local guide
About Wapping
Undoubtedly one of London's most atmospheric riverside areas, packed with maritime history and still retaining a real Dickensian feel to many parts of it on account of its many cobbled streets. The old wharfs and spice and tea warehouses that the area is filled with have almost all now been snapped up and converted by hip media types, wanting to live the NY-style loft dream. The area is also well-known for its many historic riverside pubs, gloriously cosy in wintertime and good for sun soaking come summertime.
