With thousands of tenants returning to city offices and international workers relocating to the capital, Dexters Wapping has never been busier. Due to the continued success of our presence on Wapping high Street, we are excited to be opening a second office on Garnet Street that will be entirely dedicated to lettings.
With 35 offices in central London and 70 across the capital, Dexters is London’s leading independent Estate Agency. Joining the dots with our offices in Tower Bridge and Canary Wharf, this expansion will only further strengthen our network in east London. This Friday, there will be an opening celebration at the new Wapping office with drinks and cupcakes served to all local residents and clients.
Situated on the river between Aldgate and Limehouse, Wapping is a hidden gem with charming cobbled streets and historic buildings. Once a part of London’s thriving Docklands, the area was a major bomb target during the Second World War and one of the first neighbourhoods to be regenerated in the 1980s.
Today, Wapping offers a wonderful blend of old and new. Lots of former warehouses have been transformed into smart contemporary apartments whilst modern developments can be found around St Katherine Docks.
‘Professionals are drawn to this area because it's in walking distance of both the City and Canary Wharf’, says Zhora Barreira, Manager of Dexters Wapping. ‘But this neighbourhood is also unique because it offers a fantastic riverside lifestyle.
‘Sunday strollers enjoy the Thames Path walkway, while adventure seekers can kayak, canoe and sail in The Shadwell Basin. There’s such a wonderful community feel here. We have lots of independent shops, bakeries and butchers along Wapping Lane, and locals love the Prospect of Whitby, one of London’s oldest pubs dating back to 1520.’
