This bright split-level three-bedroom flat offers generous rooms and outdoor space in a convenient Bethnal Green location. At about 815 sq ft the layout includes a spacious reception room, a modern separate kitchen, a stylish shower room and both a private and a shared balcony — useful for indoor-outdoor living. Good natural light and contemporary finishes make it move-in ready for many buyers.
Practical running costs are partly covered: the service charge (circa £3,196 pa) includes central heating and hot water from a community scheme, and ground rent is low. The property is leasehold with approximately 84 years remaining — enough for mortgage purposes now, but buyers should budget for future lease management or extension costs. The building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and has cavity walls without added insulation (assumed), which may affect future energy upgrades.
Location is a strong selling point: moments from Bethnal Green Underground, short walks to Regents Canal and Victoria Park, with a wide range of shops, cafés and schools nearby. Transport links suit commuters and there are several well-rated primary and secondary schools within easy reach.
Important drawbacks are factual: the area records above-average crime and very high local deprivation, which may matter to some buyers and could affect resale and rental demand. There is a single shower room for three bedrooms and the block’s mid-20th-century construction means planned maintenance and communal costs should be reviewed closely before purchase.
