Narrow Street, London, E14

Guide Price £2,250,000 to £2,400,000

This is a genuinely special riverfront home, tucked away in one of this areas most charming and historic settings. Barge Wharf sits within a conservation area, surrounded by a row of beautiful Georgian houses and just moments from Ropemakers Fields, with its tennis courts, open-air gym and green open space.

The building itself is a thoughtfully converted former barge warehouse, now home to just four apartments, all owned and managed by the residents. This particular home has its own private entrance, giving it much more of a house-like feel, and has been cleverly designed by East London architect Laurence Quinn to make the most of the space and light.

Arranged over three levels, the layout is both practical and flexible. The entrance level offers a spacious hallway with plenty of storage, along with a generous second bedroom and en-suite. Upstairs, the principal bedroom feels like its own retreat, complete with a walk-in dressing room and a beautifully finished bathroom.

There’s also a separate study, perfect for working from home or easily used as a third bedroom, as well as a smart shower room with utility space neatly tucked away.

The real heart of the home is the main living space. With its high ceilings, exposed brickwork and open-plan layout, it’s a room that feels both impressive and welcoming. The kitchen is slightly raised at the rear, designed with cooking and entertaining in mind, and features a breakfast island and integrated appliances.

Bi-fold doors open out onto a full-width, south-facing terrace, bringing in fantastic natural light and offering uninterrupted views across the Thames towards The Shard, the City and Canary Wharf. It’s a space that’s just as good for a quiet morning coffee as it is for hosting friends on a summer evening.

The property is offered with a share of freehold. There is an option for on-street resident parking.

Outside

Overhanging the river, this south-facing terrace enjoys breathtaking 180-degree views across Canary Wharf and the City. An exceptional setting for both relaxing and entertaining year-round.

Situation

Barge Wharf is perfectly placed at the eastern end of Narrow Street, just a short stroll from Canary Wharf, so everything is right on your doorstep. The area has a great energy, with a mix of shops, cafés, restaurants, bars and cinemas, plus plenty going on throughout the year. Just across the road, Ropemakers Field is ideal for a game of tennis or an outdoor workout, and the Virgin Active gym and spa with its Thames-facing infinity pool is only a few minutes away.
