Summary - Colvestone Crescent, London, E8 E8 2LH
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Refurbished one-bedroom top-floor flat near Dalston stations — long lease, move-in ready..
Top-floor Victorian conversion with high ceilings and natural light
A bright top-floor Victorian conversion in central Dalston, recently refurbished to a contemporary standard. The open-plan reception and kitchen catch abundant natural light and create versatile living and dining space suited to city professionals or a couple. The bedroom is well-proportioned and includes built-in storage while the bathroom is modern and fully updated.
This flat is practical for first-time buyers seeking a move-in-ready London home: mains gas heating with boiler and radiators, fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and a long lease of 120 years. Local transport is strong — Dalston Kingsland and Dalston Junction Overground are nearby for swift links to Shoreditch, Islington and central London. Shops, cafés, markets and green spaces such as London Fields are all within easy reach.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold with an average ground rent of £300 and sits in a ward classed as deprived, which may affect future local services and perceptions. The building is traditional solid-brick Victorian construction and likely has limited wall insulation, so heating costs could be higher than in modern insulated blocks. Crime is recorded as average for the area.
Overall this well-presented one-bedroom apartment offers immediate usability and strong local amenities, making it a sensible option for buyers wanting a compact city home or an investor targeting steady rental demand from nearby professionals and students. Buyers should weigh the benefits of a long lease and recent refurbishment against typical Victorian running costs and the leasehold charges.
