Summary - Flat 21, Horseley Court, 4 Candle Street E1 4RX
Top-floor one-bedroom with private balcony and canal/City views
Bright, top-floor one-bedroom apartment with dual-aspect views over Regents Canal and the City, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking a well-connected urban home. The open-plan kitchen/reception is south-east facing and floods with natural light through large windows, while a private balcony extends the living space for morning coffee or evening skyline views.
The apartment is presented with wooden flooring throughout and includes a double bedroom, modern shower room and useful entrance storage. At around 550 sq ft, the layout feels generous for its size and suits single professionals or couples wanting a low-maintenance city base close to Stepney Green, Mile End and Limehouse DLR stations.
Practical points to note: the flat is leasehold with 107 years remaining, an annual service charge of about £2,352 and a small ground rent of £150. Heating is by electric storage heaters, which are less efficient than gas and may increase running costs. The wider area shows signs of deprivation, although local crime levels are very low and transport, broadband and local amenities are excellent.
Overall this is a sensible, well-located purchase for someone entering the London market who values natural light, views and transport links. Buyers seeking lower running costs or freehold ownership should factor in the electric heating and leasehold charges when budgeting.
