Light-filled modern flat near Angel with balcony and strong transport links.
First-floor one-bedroom, open-plan living with balcony
Set on the first floor of a modern car-free development, this bright one-bedroom apartment offers efficient city living a short walk from Angel Underground and Upper Street. Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the open-plan kitchen/reception with light and a private balcony provides a small outdoor spot for morning coffee. The flat is well finished with hardwood flooring, integrated kitchen units and built-in mirrored wardrobes.
Practical details suit a first-time buyer: a 111-year lease, double glazing, and dedicated cycle storage for commuter convenience. The property benefits from excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for remote working — and good local schooling options and amenities nearby.
Buyers should note the higher-than-average communal costs: an annual service charge of approximately £2,649 and a small ground rent of £150. Parking is on-street only and the development is car-free. Heating runs via a community mains-gas scheme rather than individual boilers.
The area is lively and well connected to central London, which supports rental demand but also brings typical inner-city drawbacks: the neighbourhood registers as very deprived in wider area indices and local crime levels are average. There is no private garden and the apartment’s 506 sq ft footprint is compact, though well arranged for city living.
