1 Bedroom Apartment in Harbour Central, London

Some places just feel like they belong in a film. Maine Tower in Canary Wharf absolutely gives that impression. I remember when I first walked in I actually had to stop for a few seconds just to look around and take it all in. There is something really different about being right in the center of London and at the same time feeling like you have your own private space high above the busy city. Honestly these are not your typical London apartments. They have that sense where you just want to settle in and stay for a while rather than just pass through. And even with all that shine and polish of a brand new development you can sense some real warmth as soon as you arrive.

You notice it straight away when you open the door. There is a kind of freshness to the colors but they do not feel cold or clinical. Whoever put these interiors together really cared about making the space easy to live with. It is not all for show either. The furniture is already set up and it looks like that sofa might become your favorite place to crash after a long day. The kitchen does not just look the part either. You have all those Smeg appliances right where you would want them and this is a kitchen you could actually cook in. People love to say that nobody really cooks in London but if you like making something at home you will get a lot of use out of this kitchen. It feels practical and just right for experimenting with a new recipe now and then.

Sometimes you want to stay in and just have a bit of quiet. The living room is one of those spaces where you could watch the light change throughout the day. There is this programmable mood lighting setup so you can make it just as bright or soft as you like. It is nice in the bedrooms too since everyone sleeps better with their own kind of light. I remember standing by the big windows and just looking out at the skyline for a while. The higher you go the more the city seems to change and you might find yourself just stopping with a coffee in your hand looking out at all those rooftops and boats on the Thames. At night the city lights up and you get this peaceful feeling of being close but never crowded in.

Having your own private terrace here is actually one of the best things. Some people eat breakfast out there while others just spread out with a book or get their morning sun. You can still hear some of the city sounds but it always feels like your own patch of sky and open air right in the middle of Canary Wharf. Residents at Maine Tower get to use the building's health spa too which is more than just a quick stop. You have a sauna steam room and even a special suite for relaxing when you want to unwind. And the gym is fully equipped with everything you need. Sometimes people get together for Pilates or personal training and if you are into fitness you might actually look forward to your workouts here. Afterwards the steam room pretty much melts away any of the day's stress.

The lounge area is one more space that people tend to settle into after a busy day. You will find quieter corners too like a little library with touches by Nicola Fontanella. If movies are your thing the screening room is honestly great for watching something new with friends. Plus with the full time concierge service life here just runs a bit smoother. It is as if everything you need is just handled before you worry about it.

What really stands out though is how connected you are. Maine Tower is right here in Harbour Central so you are surrounded by fine dining and some of London's best restaurants. The shops are close by and there is always a neighborhood place to meet friends for a drink. You still find those quieter moments too kids biking around or someone heading out for a run near the river. The main transport hub is only about ten minutes away so you can jump on the DLR Tube or Crossrail or even take the Thames bus anytime.
