Bike to work from Bellway’s Dockside apartments
Over two million people across the country now cycle at least once a week, an all-time high according to British Cycling, the sport’s UK governing body. Meanwhile the UK topped the list of countries that participated in the recent Bike to Work Day, with 37.5% of commuters opting for a two-wheel commute. Cycling enthusiasts in search of a new home now have a fantastic option at Bellway’s Dockside, where it’s just a five minute bike ride to London’s financial district of Canary Wharf in E14, and the network of riverside cycle routes along the banks of the Thames.
Dockside comprises a brand new collection of one, two and three bedroom contemporary apartments, offering both waterside views as well as modern amenities. The location is the perfect place for city workers who prefer the cycling commute to and from work.
Bellway’s Head of Sales Emma Denton comments: “Cycling is now a very popular way to get to work; it’s cost effective, eco-friendly and a great way to keep fit, but the distance between home and work often puts people off. The apartments at Dockside are ideal for those looking for a convenient, modern home, where the commute to work is short - located just one mile from Canary Wharf - perfect for those working in the capital’s financial hub.”
The apartments at Dockside are designed to a high quality specification, with the contemporary kitchens boasting a full range of integrated appliances such as a fridge/freezer and electric oven. The living / dining areas follow an open plan design, which is spacious and light-filled.
Bedrooms are generously proportioned, with the master bedrooms benefiting from built-in wardrobes and en suite shower rooms. The bathrooms feature modern, white sanitaryware and chrome fixtures and fittings, while the en suites include full height tiling.
Cycling isn’t the only way for residents get outdoors, as most of the apartments include private balconies – many of which boast waterside views, providing a private sun trap to be enjoyed in the warmer months. Residents also benefit from access to a concierge, ideal for modern city lifestyles.
Dockside is situated in a fantastic area for local amenities and leisure activities. Nearby Canary Wharf is not just a place of work, but is also home to three shopping malls, each boasting a range of high-street and high-end brands, as well as a wide range of restaurants, bars and cafes.
For those who prefer other means of transport, Crossharbour DLR station is just a three minute walk away, providing just a three stop service to Canary Wharf. From there, the Jubilee line offers direct journeys across the capital to Stratford and Bond Street. 2018 will see Canary Wharf become home to Crossrail, linking Essex and Kent to Buckinghamshire and Berkshire with direct train services across London. For international and domestic air travel London City Airport can be reached in less than 30 minutes by public transport.
