Set over two floors, this unusually large one-bedroom apartment (1,313 sq ft) offers bright, contemporary living in central Shoreditch. Recently renovated throughout, the property features a fitted shaker kitchen with integrated appliances, underfloor heating and two bathrooms, including an en-suite to the principal bedroom. High ceilings and large windows give a loft-like feel, and there is a private balcony plus access to a shared terrace.
The apartment is leasehold with 103 years remaining, making it suitable for buyers seeking a substantial London pied-à-terre or a rental asset in a well-connected area. Old Street, Shoreditch High Street and Liverpool Street stations are within easy reach, and the neighbourhood offers extensive dining, nightlife and cultural amenities that attract young professionals and short-stay tenants.
Buyers should note practical costs and local factors. The annual service charge is approximately £3,924 and ground rent is £250 per year. Council Tax sits at Band F and local crime levels are reported as very high; the wider area is classified as deprived. The building is a period conversion with solid brick walls and assumed lack of insulation in walls, which may affect long-term running costs and future refurbishment plans.
Overall, this is a spacious, turnkey central-London residence with clear rental and lifestyle appeal, balanced by above-average running costs and local social challenges. It will suit purchasers prioritising space, location and contemporary finish, and those prepared to factor service charges and security considerations into their decision.
