Light-filled third-floor apartment offering a practical, modern layout across 711 sq ft. The open-plan living and kitchen area feels spacious and benefits from a southerly/westerly aspect that brings direct sunlight into the main room. Two double bedrooms and a family bathroom make this a versatile home for a single occupant, couple or small family.
The flat sits in a contemporary development constructed in the mid-2000s and is offered chain free on a leasehold with 107 years remaining. Finished in neutral tones with timber-effect flooring and integrated kitchen appliances, the property is market-ready and will suit first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors wanting immediate occupancy or rental potential.
Notable running costs and building specifics are important to consider: the current service charge is £2,234.88 and heating is provided by electric storage heaters, which can affect energy bills. There is no private garden, but residents have access to a garage for parking and the location provides easy access to green spaces including Hackney Marshes and Victoria Park.
The apartment is well-located for local amenities, cafés, and transport links into central London. Nearby schools have good Ofsted ratings, which supports family use. The surrounding neighbourhood is lively and diverse, though local crime levels are reported as very high and the wider area shows significant deprivation, factors to weigh when considering long-term resale or lettings.
