Dock East (Boatman’s House)

Boatman’s House – Modern Riverside Living in the Isle of Dogs

Modern architecture and a tranquil river landscape \"Boatman’s House\" has the perfect combination of both. Situated in the heart of East London's Isle of Dogs at 2 Selsdon Way, this first-class development turns a former commercial site into a new style yet old-fashioned sweet haven to live in. With 108 flats in one, two and three bed formats, each with its own balcony and carefully planned interiors, Boatman’s House conveys the taste of life.

The planning seeks to stress functionality, comfort and visual beauty, offering a quiet place that people can easily access. Set amidst Millwall Dock, Boatman’s House offers its residents an exceptional waterfront lifestyle. It stands within walking distance from parks and cafes, so they are almost self-contained with essential services such as health, education, administration and shopping all on site. It has been carefully detailed in designed and built to modern standards to reflect Londongreen's commitment to quality, sustainability and long-term value for home buyers and investors.

Isle of Dogs is an East London location that is gaining more popularity, combining the calm of the Riverside with the speed of a rapidly growing city. Nearby facilities include everything from schools and sports clubs to gyms or stadia, shopping centres and parks such as the Mudchute Park and Farm. Its mix of modern infrastructure and established community spaces provides an ideal environment in which both families and professionals can live. And with the continued regeneration in Docklands, this area continues to attract a very strong interest from those who want to buy homes or invest in what many think of as one of London’s fastest-growing residential estates.

Architecture and Design

Boatman's House exemplifies a refined architectural approach that respects its surroundings while bringing in a sophisticated contemporary aesthetic. The design saw the conversion of around 50,000 square feet of former offices; this entailed adding two new levels and remodelling the facade to give it a distinctly residential character. Inside, the open layout is combined with large windows and quality finishes to create fresh and inviting living spaces. In this photo gallery are images that show how interior design and features tinkered with for daily life affect each other.

Balcony in each apartment expedites natural air and gives wonderful views over Millwall Dock or the landscaped courtyard. Communal areas are arranged for socialising after a hard day's slog, but with secure entry systems and professional management, providing tranquillity along with privacy. The merger of style, practicability and location makes Boatman's House the benchmark for modern living in East London.

Investment Potential

A combination of first-rate location fundamentals and well-conceived design makes Boatman’s House an appealing choice for both homebuyers and investors. The unit price reflects not only the high quality of construction associated with the area but also sustained growth in value for properties throughout the Isle of Dogs. Yields on rental in the area generally average between 2.5 and 4.5 per cent annually, with the expected capital appreciation from 7 to 10 per cent a year.

To those who observe carefully, our development is an investment in both way of life and long-term financial security. Boatsman builders will offer you transportation opportunities, and living near rivers means serenity, as mythology has told us long before the closing years of Tang East London.
