Bright, newly refurbished flat with concierge and strong transport links.
Fourth-floor apartment with generous balcony and courtyard aspect
A recently refurbished two-double-bedroom apartment on the fourth floor of a landmark canal-side development. The open-plan living/kitchen/dining room opens through floor-to-ceiling sliding doors onto a generous balcony overlooking the internal courtyard, giving bright, flexible entertaining space and outdoor access. The layout includes a master bedroom with en-suite, a second double bedroom with built-in storage, and a separate bathroom.
Practical features include double glazing, engineered wood floors, integrated kitchen appliances and a long lease (975 years). The building offers a 24-hour concierge, on-site gym (membership not included), an on-site Co‑Op and coffee shop, and excellent transport links to Old Street, Essex Road and Highbury & Islington.
Buyers should note some recurring costs and constraints: a relatively high service charge (£6,000pa) and a modest ground rent (£200pa), plus electric storage heating rather than gas central heating. The development is car‑free so parking is on-street only. The wider area is a multicultural, inner‑city neighbourhood with strong student and creative presence — lively and well connected, but busier than residential suburbs.
Overall this is a contemporary, low‑maintenance apartment with a generous footprint for central London (approx. 870 sq ft). It will suit professionals seeking an attractive city base, couples wanting outdoor space and concierge services, or investors targeting strong rental demand in Shoreditch and Hoxton.
