Set on the 18th floor of Icon Tower, this one-bedroom apartment offers a bright, contemporary home with a private balcony and wide city views — ideal for a first-time buyer seeking easy transport links. The open-plan living space, floor-to-ceiling glazing and integrated kitchen make efficient use of about 541 sqft, creating a compact but comfortable urban home.
Practical comforts include 24-hour concierge, secure access, and proximity to both North Acton (Central Line, 2 minutes) and Acton Main Line (Elizabeth Line, 8 minutes). The building’s recent construction (2021) and long lease (995 years) reduce long-term ownership uncertainty, while fast broadband and excellent mobile signal suit remote working and streaming.
Buyers should note the service charge and running costs: an above-average service charge (£4,760 pa) and a separate community heating scheme may limit independent heating control. Ground rent is average (£461 pa). The property sits in an area with higher crime levels, which may concern some purchasers despite concierge and secure-entry provisions.
This apartment suits a first-time buyer wanting a low-maintenance, well-connected base or an investor targeting rental demand from established renting families and commuter professionals. It’s compact and largely move-in ready, but prospective buyers should factor ongoing service charges and the urban location into affordability and lifestyle plans.
