Bright, canal-side living meets low-maintenance modern design in this one-bedroom apartment at Canalside Square. The open-plan living area has full-height windows and a private balcony that capture natural light and views over landscaped communal gardens, making the compact living space feel larger than its 522 sqft footprint. A high-spec integrated kitchen, built-in wardrobes and underfloor heating add contemporary convenience for everyday city life.
This first-floor flat is practical for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking a well-presented, ready-to-move-in home with strong transport links to Angel, Essex Road and Old Street. The development offers secure cycle storage and a car-free layout with parking by permit, reducing maintenance tasks and simplifying London living.
Important practical facts are clear: the property is leasehold with c.116 years remaining, a service charge of approximately £1,815.75 pa and a small ground rent of £150. Heating is provided via a communal scheme rather than an individual gas boiler, which may affect running costs and control. Council Tax sits in band D under Islington.
The surrounding area is an inner-city, cosmopolitan setting with excellent local amenities and green spaces nearby, but it sits within a wider area classed as constrained and relatively deprived. That context means strong rental demand and central convenience come alongside the typical noise and density of inner London living. Overall, this is a tidy, modern urban flat that emphasizes light, location and low-maintenance living, best suited to buyers prioritising connectivity and contemporary finishes over private outdoor space.
