Formerly three separate cottages, this charming house now forms one substantial home.
Description
A rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional Grade II listed freehold property in Wapping. Currently arranged as a single dwelling, this character-filled home was originally constructed in 1823 as a terrace of 3 houses, one of which is now presented as a spectacular, open-plan double-height space. Walled gardens on either side of the property offer privacy and a charming outlook.
Upon walking into the property via the Eastern entrance, you are greeted with an impressive porch or garden room with plenty of space for storage, coats and shoes. This leads you to a cosy reception room with a study to the right. The ground floor provides a fully fitted country style kitchen and separate dining area at the centre of the house, with an additional utility area and W/C. To the left, you will find a hallway leading you to the open-plan area that currently accommodates a bright sitting room with dining area, but has also been used as a design studio and showroom. This studio/reception room features a characterful spiral staircase, providing access upstairs whereby you will find three double bedrooms, a roof terrace, wardrobe facilities and two contemporary bathrooms, both with bathtubs and walk-in showers.
At the rear of the house you will find another entrance facing West, with a generously sized garden area with outbuilding which currently houses a garden office.
Location
Dock Cottages is tucked away between The Highway and Glamis Road, the property is within easy reach of both the City and Canary Wharf. The Thames path provides a scenic walk to St Katharine Docks and Tower Bridge (within approximately 1 mile).
Wapping Wall and Wapping High Street provide a range of riverside pubs, restaurants and shops such as The Prospect of Whitby, Il Bordello and Urban Baristas. Wapping Lane offers local bakeries, a butchers, Sainsbury's Local, Post Office and dry cleaners.
Transport links include the 3 and 100 bus route into St Paul's, Aldgate, Liverpool Street, Bethnal Green and Limehouse. Wapping Overground station and the DLR at Limehouse are the closest train lines.
