Contemporary sixth-floor apartment ideal for first-time buyers or a city pied-à-terre.
Private balcony with city views
Light-filled studio on the sixth floor, Wilson Tower, offers a simple, contemporary base in Aldgate. The open-plan reception and modern kitchen flow into a generous sleeping area and a stylish shower room, with a private balcony that brings in city views. Built after 2012 and fitted with double glazing, the apartment feels fresh and low-maintenance.
Residents benefit from a secure block with lift access, concierge and on-site gym — practical extras for a first-time buyer or someone seeking a city pied-à-terre. Transport connections are strong, with Aldgate and Shadwell stations only moments away, and local shops and amenities immediately accessible.
Practical details: the flat is leasehold with approximately 240 years remaining and connected to a community heating scheme. The immediate neighbourhood is an inner-city, mixed-employment area with higher-than-average deprivation indicators; crime is reported as average. The property is therefore well suited to buyers prioritising location, convenience and modern finishes, but less suitable for those seeking a quiet suburban setting.
Overall this apartment is a compact, modern entry into central London ownership — attractive for first-time purchasers or investors looking for a lettable, low-upkeep city property. Buyers should note the leasehold tenure and communal heating arrangement when assessing running costs and future plans.
