Summer is finally upon us: the weather is heating up and the nights are longer. At Genesis’ Jessops Building at New Providence Wharf in Poplar, E14, residents needn’t rush for the last train, as home is just a short walk from Canary Wharf’s nightlife. A range of homes are available at the exclusive development, meaning there’s something for all potential purchasers looking to secure a city pad at the iconic New Providence Wharf.

Jessops Building at New Providence Wharf is a collection of modern apartments available to buy through shared ownership. The development is located close to a range of local amenities, including the bars and restaurants of Canary Wharf to the west, Stratford Westfield City to the north, and the O2 Arena south across the River Thames.

Currently available at Jessop’s Building is a selection of one and two bedroom apartments, with stunning contemporary specification. They offer spacious accommodation, with balconies to most apartments, making them perfect for al fresco dining in the summer months. Kitchens feature fitted units with integrated Bosch appliances, including dishwasher and washing machine, as well as granite worktops and chrome fixtures and fittings. The bedrooms are a generous size, and throughout the apartments, full height windows offer plenty of natural light.

A hub of activity, New Providence Wharf is becoming a destination in its own right. The area is bustling with an array of eateries and bars, hotels and leisure facilities, all in the shadow of Canary Wharf. Across the river, the O2 Arena boasts one of the largest live venues, home to various sports and entertainment shows, as well as a choice of bars and restaurants, cinema and the famous Indigo2 nightclub. Less than 30 minutes away from New Providence Wharf by tube is Westfield Stratford City, the largest urban shopping mall in Europe, boasting over 500 shops, a cinema, bowling alley and casino.

New Providence Wharf boasts a superb range of local transport options. Just a few minutes’ walk from the development is Blackwall DLR station, from where trains take you to Bank in 13 minutes and into Canary Wharf in six minutes, making the new homes ideal for City workers and commuters alike. Several bus routes also operate in the local area, with destinations including Trafalgar Square, Stratford and Highbury & Islington.

The homes at New Providence Wharf are available through a shared ownership scheme allowing buyers to purchase between 25% and 75% of the property, paying subsidised rent on the remainder. Residents can then increase their share at any time, all the way up to 100% and outright ownership. The scheme is specifically designed for first time buyers whose household income is less than £71,000 a year and priority will be given to those who live or work in Tower Hamlets.

Prices at New Providence Wharf start from £95,563 for a 25% share based on the full market value of £382,250 for a one bedroom apartment. To register your interest and for more information, visit genesishahomes.org.uk.
