Untapped and undervalued: Docklands living for under £400k

Silvertown, the former industrial hub just south of the Royal Docks, is undergoing something of a renaissance, with a £3.7bn investment programme bringing a business park, shops, restaurants and even a floating village to the area. Development is already well underway, and a one-bedroom apartment at Royal Albert Wharf can be had from as little as £385,000. However, Jon Hall, of developer Mount Anvil, says that prices are rising quickly, with average inflation 1.7 times higher than the surrounding E16 postcode. The company’s Royal Docks West project, a 19-level tower of 105 studio, one-, two- and three-bedroom homes, is due to be completed in the autumn; a two-bedroom apartment in the building starts at £590,000.
