Island life in the East End

3rd March 2017

London City Island, a new development on the Leamouth Peninsula, offers a variety of apartments across its seven towers, from one-bedroom apartments to expansive penthouses. Each structure is shaded differently, to reflect the local area’s maritime history. This is also one island it would be virtually impossible to get stranded on; the 12-acre site is linked to Canning Town by a new 260 ft footbridge, offering easy access to the Jubilee Line and DLR, with Bond Street just 25 minutes away. There will be plenty to keep residents onshore, however, with an Arts Club housing a library, games room and dedicated gym, as well as the future arrival of the English National Ballet headquarters and school, and the London Film School. Prices start from £499,500.
