High-spec one-bedroom with balcony, pool, spa and long lease — chain free.
14th-floor corner apartment with private balcony and wide city views
A bright, corner 14th-floor one-bedroom apartment offering spacious open-plan living and striking city views from a private balcony. The apartment is finished to a high standard with parquet flooring, a fully integrated kitchen with island, floor-to-ceiling windows in the bedroom and an easy flow between living and outdoor space — well suited to a first-time buyer looking for turn-key city living.
Residents benefit from substantial on-site facilities including a heated swimming pool, spa/sauna, gym, roof garden and cinema, plus concierge. Practical points that add security and resale appeal include an EWS1 A2 rating, a long lease of 245 years and sale with no onward chain.
Buyers should note the ownership costs and some location factors. Service charges run at approximately £867 per quarter (£3,468 pa) and ground rent is £250 pa. Heating is electric (room heaters), which can increase running costs compared with mains gas. Broadband speeds are reported as very slow locally. The property sits within a cosmopolitan, student-heavy neighbourhood that has seen investment but is also recorded as a very deprived/constrained area; this brings both lively local amenities and some socioeconomic challenges.
Overall this is a well-appointed, ready-to-live-in city apartment with strong communal amenities and long lease security. It will suit a first-time buyer or investor seeking immediate occupancy and facilities-led lifestyle, provided they accept the service charges, electric heating and less reliable broadband in the area.
