City Retreat with Large Outdoor Terrace near Greenwich and Canary Wharf

Tucked away in a quiet, gated location just 100 metres from the riverbank of the Thames in Island Gardens, this beautiful newly refurbished two-bedroom apartment offers a rare blend of tranquility, design and location.

The space is part of the old Millwall Fire Station, a listed building built in 1905 and an important part of the local history.

This delightful home offers a vibrant living space with a dedicated outdoor terrace, perfect for weekend getaways or longer stays.

Step into a light-filled, two-level haven thoughtfully styled for the modern traveler.

On the ground floor, a spacious open-plan living area with a contemporary kitchen invites you to unwind in style. Sink into the plush sofa, brew an espresso from the Nespresso machine and plan your adventures.

Upstairs, the main bedroom offers restful nights in a plush king-size bed, while the second bedroom downstairs is equally welcoming, also with a king-size bed, ideal for families, friends, or remote workers in search of comfort.

The newly updated bathroom features a shower-over-bath combination and clean, minimalist finishes.

One stunning feature is the large outdoor terrace when you can bask in morning sunlight whilst enjoying breakfast or a coffee, then in the evening it’s the perfect setting for a glass of wine to unwind.

From brand-new furnishings to curated details and abundant natural light, every corner has been carefully styled for luxury, comfort and ease.
