Introducing Node Limehouse
Where East London Docklands Heritage Meets Modern Co-Living — From Maritime Workers to Millennials LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM, August 5, 2025 / / -- Node Living proudly unveils NODE LIMEHOUSE, the latest addition to its innovative global co-living portfolio. Nestled in the heart of Limehouse, an iconic East London district ideally located just 15 minutes walk to Canary Wharf along the scenic River Thames and a 20 minute commute to the City, this stylish, fully furnished residence embraces modern living for a global community. Limehouse is a historic district in London's Tower Hamlets, renowned for its maritime heritage and picturesque riverside settings. With NODE LIMEHOUSE opening this summer, Node continues its mission to cultivate rental communities where residents can live, connect, and thrive. A Historic Site Reimagined, from shipyard to coliving hub, NODE LIMEHOUSE occupies a former docklands building where, over a century ago, significant parts of the RMS Titanic were fabricated. This industrial heritage imparts a unique character to the space, evoking a proud legacy of craftsmanship and ingenuity. Limehouse's dockland transformation, once London's bustling shipbuilding heart, has evolved into a dynamic, waterside neighbourhood boasting charming canals, riverside cafés, pubs, and modern housing, yet retains a strong sense of its industrial roots reflected in NODE LIMEHOUSE's preserved brickwork, beams, and factory aesthetics. Key Features at NODE LIMEHOUSE include move-in ready studios and coliving suites offering a variety of layouts, from 'Cozy Studio' units to larger 'Studio with Terrace', each residence includes thoughtful design, abundant natural light, built-in storage, kitchenette, and dual-purpose dining/work desks. Stays range from 6 to 24 months, flexible to suit the global worker, whether residents seek an extended corporate assignment, a study year abroad, a relocation or locals seeking more authentic connections with their neighbours. Dedicated communal areas are designed by Node's in-house Design Studio to foster connection amongst residents, enriched by Node hallmark 'international community' ethos. Monthly rents are all inclusive of utilities, WiFi and council tax and offer city or canal views, with some units having private terraces. Amenities include high speed WiFi, co-working spaces, library, skylounge, roof terraces, yoga studio, fitness center, sauna + plunge, communal kitchens with dining areas and residents' lounges. About Node Node's mission is to create a better way to live in rental accommodation in global cities. Node creates thoughtfully designed, fully furnished homes — with the success of its first London project in Brixton and now in East London's Limehouse. Node is planning for further expansion in London as the need for community focused rental housing grows.
