Bright 2-bed second-floor flat near Bromley-by-Bow with balcony and quick transport links.
Large open-plan reception with modern kitchen and balcony access
This bright two-bedroom second-floor apartment offers practical city living with a large open-plan reception and a private balcony overlooking Anderson Square. At about 797 sq ft, the layout feels generous for its size: two double bedrooms, a family bathroom and a useful storage cupboard make it a flexible home for couples or first-time buyers. The kitchen is modern and integrated into the reception room, so you can move in with minimal immediate works.
Location is a clear strength: moments from Bromley-by-Bow Underground with fast links into central London, close to canals, parks and a large Tesco for everyday shopping. The neighbourhood is inner-city and cosmopolitan with a mix of professionals and good local amenities, including several well-rated primary schools and convenient cycle hire and bus routes.
Practical points to note: the property is leasehold and will be sold at auction (prior auction purchase available), and it sits on a community heating scheme. Annual costs include a service charge of around £3,264 and ground rent of approximately £300. There is one bathroom only, so buyers needing two bathrooms should consider that limitation.
Overall this flat suits a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking a low-maintenance, well-located London apartment with strong transport links and nearby green space. The auction route may attract buyers looking to secure a competitive price quickly, but budget for the ongoing service charge and communal heating arrangements when calculating running costs.
