Set on the seventh floor, this stylish two-bedroom flat offers light-filled living with an open-plan kitchen and a generous reception room opening onto a private balcony. At about 732 sq ft, the layout suits first-time buyers who want comfortable space plus a spot to relax outdoors and enjoy city views.
The development includes concierge and modern communal areas, and the flat benefits from double glazing and fast broadband — useful for remote working or streaming. There are two good-sized double bedrooms and a sleek bathroom; the property was built in the mid-2000s and presents as move-in ready for buyers who prefer minimal immediate works.
Practical points to note: the home is leasehold with 103 years remaining and a small ground rent of £250. Heating is electric via room heaters, which can mean higher running costs compared with gas central heating. The area is an inner-city, multicultural neighbourhood with excellent local amenities and transport links, but reported crime levels are above average.
This flat will appeal to first-time buyers seeking a modern apartment in a vibrant part of London, and to those who prioritise location, on-site concierge and a private balcony. Buyers wanting low heating costs or a property with gas central heating should factor potential upgrades into their budget.
