Summary - DONEGAL HOUSE FLAT 74 CAMBRIDGE HEATH ROAD LONDON E1 5QS
Two double bedrooms across two levels, bright reception room
Separate kitchen keeps living and cooking distinct
Approximately 829 sq ft — decent space for central London
Leasehold with ~84 years remaining — lease extension likely needed
Annual service charge £1,804; ground rent £10 per year
Solid brick construction; likely no wall insulation (energy upgrades may be needed)
High local crime and area deprivation — consider security and insurance
Excellent transport links: Whitechapel and Bethnal Green within walking distance
Set across the fourth and fifth floors, this two-bedroom maisonette offers comfortable, well-lit living in a convenient E1 location. The reception room is a good size and the separate kitchen keeps cooking and living space distinct—practical for couples or first-time buyers who want clear room separation.
Transport links are a clear strength: Whitechapel and Bethnal Green stations are within walking distance, with direct routes into the City and West End. Local amenities, shops and markets are immediately accessible, and nearby schools include several rated Good or Outstanding, making the area workable for a small family or professionals.
There are important practical considerations. The flat is leasehold with approximately 84 years remaining — short enough that a lease extension or lender checks will be required. Annual service charge is £1,804 and ground rent is £10 per year. The block dates from the mid-20th century and walls are likely uninsulated solid brick, so buyers should budget for energy-efficiency improvements if needed.
This property suits buyers seeking an affordable central London base with immediate access to transport and amenities, and who are comfortable managing a medium-term leasehold and common-charge costs. It also has simple renovation potential for those wanting to increase comfort or value over time.
