This one-bedroom apartment in Bastion House offers contemporary, low-maintenance living with an exceptionally large private balcony (310 sq ft) that genuinely extends the usable space — rare for central London. The open-plan living area is fitted with bespoke graphite-lacquer kitchen units, Siemens integrated appliances, and high-quality finishes throughout, making the flat move-in ready for a buyer who values design and entertaining space.
Positioned between Stoke Newington and Dalston, the location provides easy access to cafés, parks and transport links; Hackney Downs and a variety of amenities are close by. Practical features include underfloor heating, a secure video-entry system, Schindler lift access and a landscaped communal roof terrace with local views. The property is part of a small boutique development of nine homes, offered as a share of freehold and constructed in 2022.
Buyers should note material considerations: the building is in an area with above-average crime statistics and wider area deprivation indicators, which may influence insurance and resale perceptions. The main fuel is electricity with an unspecified tariff and the heating system uses electric boilers and underfloor heating — this can mean higher running costs compared with gas-heated homes. The flat’s total internal area is around 601 sq ft, an average one-bedroom size despite the unusually large balcony.
Overall, this apartment will suit a design-conscious first-time buyer or investor seeking contemporary finishes, generous outdoor space and strong local amenities, provided they accept the urban location’s social and cost considerations.
