Premium two-bed shared ownership apartment near Hackney Downs station — move‑in ready.
Premium-sized 2‑bed, approx. 831 sq ft with balcony and strong natural light
This newly renovated two-bedroom apartment on the first floor of Spur House offers generous internal space (approx. 831 sq ft) with a bright south‑west living room and a balcony that captures afternoon sun. The home is finished to a high specification with engineered wood flooring, underfloor heating and a fully fitted kitchen with appliances — move-in ready for a buyer wanting quality without major works.
Location is a clear strength: Hackney Downs station is about 100 metres away (fast links to Liverpool Street ~10 minutes), and London Fields, Mare Street and local cafés, shops and restaurants are all within a short walk. Two double bedrooms and an attractive bathroom suit sharers or a small family, with several highly rated schools nearby.
This is offered as shared ownership, which lowers the deposit and monthly cost to get on the property ladder. You can initially buy 25–75% of the home and stair‑case later; examples in the listing show monthly costs at different share levels. Service charge applies and is significant — factor this into monthly budgeting.
Be aware of the local context: the immediate area records high crime rates and is classified as very deprived. These are material negatives to consider alongside the strong transport links and specification. Buyers should check shared ownership terms and service charge details, and view locally to judge neighbourhood suitability.
