This bright two-bedroom flat occupies two floors within a purpose-built block and offers roomy, modern living with two private balconies. The reception room and separate kitchen feel contemporary thanks to laminate flooring, white cabinetry and large windows that maximise daylight. At 849 sq ft the apartment is larger than many inner-London two-beds and includes ample storage and a stylish bathroom and WC. Lift access makes upper-floor living easier.
Transport and day-to-day convenience are strong selling points: Commercial Street shops are moments away and Limehouse station is within easy reach for fast links across the city. Local amenities include supermarkets, cafés, places of worship and leisure facilities, while several well-rated primary and secondary schools are close by.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold and heated via a community mains-gas scheme, so buyers should budget for service charges and communal heating costs. The building dates from 1967–1975 with cavity walls assumed to have no insulation, which may affect energy bills unless upgraded. The wider area is classified as deprived and crime levels are average; prospective buyers should view to assess neighbourhood suitability.
Overall this is a spacious, modern-feeling flat well suited to first-time buyers or professionals seeking roomy accommodation with good transport links and outdoor space, provided they are comfortable with leasehold ownership and communal heating arrangements.
