Affordable city living at Dockside
The population of Canary Wharf is one of the fastest growing in the UK, thanks to huge investment and development in the area. While the majority of the prime residential developments under construction here are priced beyond the reach of most people, Bellway Homes is offering a range of more reasonably priced property at its Dockside development at Turnberry Quay, a short walk from the heart of Canary Wharf.
Canary Wharf overtook the City of London as Britain’s largest financial centre back in 2012, but its appeal as a place to live is rapidly rising too. The population of Tower Hamlets is set to increase by more than a quarter by 2024 according to a recent study by the ONS with much of that growth focused on Docklands. For those looking for vibrant city living, Canary Wharf is the ideal location with a skyline to rival any international city. The homes at Dockside are perfectly positioned to enjoy this iconic setting, with sweeping waterside views across the quay. Available in a range of one, two and three bedroom layouts, the apartments are ideal for professionals working at Canary Wharf who also want convenient access to its many entertainment and leisure opportunities.
Emma Denton, Head of Sales at Bellway Homes Thames Gateway, comments: “Canary Wharf has really come into its own as a place to live and not just a place to work – it has a real energy and sense of opportunity, yet especially at the weekends, next to the water it can be a very peaceful place too. The lifestyle available at Dockside is the ultimate in convenient city living, perfect for those who want to take advantage of everything Canary Wharf has to offer at a competitive price tag.”
