Summary - UNIVERSITY HOUSE, 16 FLAT 4 VICTORIA PARK SQUARE LONDON E2 9PE
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Characterful central home opposite Museum Gardens, ideal for first-time buyers.
High ceilings and large sash windows provide excellent natural light
Set in a converted Victorian building opposite the leafy Museum Gardens, this one-bedroom flat offers classic period proportions with modern city convenience. High ceilings and large sash windows create a bright, airy reception room; a separate kitchen and communal courtyard add practical living space. At 441 sq ft, the apartment is an average-sized city home suited to a single professional or couple seeking central living.
The location is the flat’s strongest selling point: Bethnal Green’s cafés, restaurants and transport links are on the doorstep, with Bethnal Green tube within walking distance. Connectivity is excellent — fast broadband and strong mobile signal — making the flat well suited to remote working or commuting. Nearby schools include several highly rated primaries and good secondary options.
Buyers should note material facts plainly. The property is leasehold with a long lease, an annual service charge around £2,440 and a small ground rent of £100. Constructed c.1900–1929 with solid brick walls (likely uninsulated), heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators; further insulation or upgrades could reduce running costs. The wider area scores as deprived and local crime levels are high, which may concern some purchasers.
Overall, this is a characterful first-home or investment opportunity in a very central location. It suits someone who values period detail and proximity to London amenities and is comfortable managing leasehold charges and local area issues, or who sees potential to add value through targeted improvements.
