Set on the seventh floor of Unex Tower, this spacious one-bedroom apartment offers 660 sq ft of open-plan living with full-height windows and a private winter garden. The layout suits a single professional or couple who value natural light, city views and immediate access to Stratford’s transport hub and Westfield shopping. Residents benefit from a 24-hour concierge, roof terrace and secure bike storage.
Practical details support peace of mind: an EPC rating B, 116 years remaining on the lease, and manageable council tax. Service charges (£2,872pa) and ground rent (£350pa) contribute to communal services including a community heating scheme; check these ongoing costs against your budget. Broadband is reported as very slow — important if you work from home.
Location is the apartment’s strongest selling point: 0.1 miles from Stratford Station with rapid links to Canary Wharf, the City and West London, plus an abundance of shops, restaurants and amenities on the doorstep. Be aware the immediate area records very high crime and is classified as deprived; service provision and security at the development are positives but local safety and neighbourhood conditions should be considered.
This apartment offers an attractive city base with clear rental or owner-occupier potential, especially for buyers prioritising connectivity and modern building amenities. It will particularly suit buyers ready to accept inner-city trade-offs (area deprivation, higher crime statistics and slow broadband) in exchange for location and views.
