Some places just make you stop for a second when you walk in. This one bedroom apartment up on the forty sixth floor of Landmark Pinnacle in Canary Wharf has that kind of effect. I stepped inside and honestly I could not help heading to the window right away because the view really does pull you in. Standing there looking out you get this sweeping look at London in every direction and it just feels quieter and bigger somehow away from all the street noise. You actually start to understand why people who live here are always mentioning the feeling of calm you get above the city.
Life on the forty sixth floor is not something you can really imagine unless you have done it yourself. When you press the button for your floor and the lift rises higher and higher you almost feel like you are leaving the everyday behind. Then the doors open and you get this soft hush in the air which is really peaceful. The apartment itself just works the way you want it to. The bedroom is bright and has a cosy feel but does not feel closed in at all. The built in wardrobes are such a plus because there is a spot for everything and you are not dealing with extra furniture. You will see there is balcony access from both the bedroom and living room which is actually great if you want a bit of air in the evening or a quiet outside coffee in the morning. I actually stood out there while a flock of birds flew by and for a minute forgot how high up I was.
The kitchen sits neatly in the corner of the main space but it does not feel like it was an afterthought which happens a lot in London apartments. Here there is enough room for all your groceries and a proper worktop if you actually want to cook a meal and not just reheat something from the shop downstairs. The open plan layout keeps everything feeling open and flowing which I think really matters in a one bed place. The laundry area is there too and you do not really notice it until you need it which honestly is how it should be. The bathroom has a bathtub that really lets you wind down after a long week and not just rush through your routine.
What surprised me about Landmark Pinnacle is how much is organised for people who actually live here. Right at the entrance there is a nice welcome from the concierge team so you never really worry about packages or letting people in unexpectedly. Security is strong but it is a quiet sort of safety where you just feel settled. Down on the first floor you have a cinema room which is actually used a fair bit but it never seems to get packed out. The garden lounge on level twenty seven is a clever bit of green space and on a weekend it is not unusual to see families or a small group of kids taking a break from screens or playing around. There is also a games room and that adds a nice relaxed feel that goes beyond just heading home after work.
If you are into fitness there is a decent gym set up with bright windows and enough gear that it actually feels like somewhere you would want to use. Head up to the fifty sixth floor and you get this impressive dining area just for residents so you can have dinner with friends and not even need to leave the building. Up top on seventy five the rooftop gardens are something you have got to see for yourself. I thought the wind would be wild but most days it is actually pretty peaceful and the view over London at sunset is unreal.
So if you are after a one bed apartment for sale in Canary Wharf with the Type B layout this spot gives you both energy and calm in the right measure. The underground and DLR are easy to reach so commutes are simple. Local coffees are actually good and evening walks around here never feel rushed. The best way to know if this London apartment is the one is to come stand and look out the window yourself. If you want to ask anything or just have a relaxed walk through drop me a line any time.
