Well-connected modern flat ideal for commuters seeking central living.
16th-floor apartment with private balcony and Shard views
Located on the 16th floor of the Crawford Building, this two-bedroom, two-bath apartment delivers bright open-plan living with a private balcony and direct views towards the Shard. The modern fit-out and large windows maximise light and the layout suits sharers or a young family wanting separate bedrooms and bathrooms. A 24-hour concierge adds convenience and security for residents.
Transport is a standout: Aldgate and nearby Crossrail links are within easy walking distance, putting the City and wider London within quick reach. The property sits within a busy, multicultural inner-city neighbourhood with a wide range of shops, eateries and amenities on the doorstep.
Practical points to note: the home is leasehold with 124 years remaining and a relatively high ground rent (£510). Council tax is above average and the immediate area records very high crime levels; these are important considerations for budgeting and lifestyle. Heating is provided via a community scheme rather than an independent system.
Overall, this apartment suits a commuter couple or first-time buyers seeking a modern, well-located city base with long lease security and strong transport connections, while being honest about the higher ongoing costs and urban location.
