The open-plan reception and kitchen create a social, light-filled hub, while both double bedrooms benefit from large windows and far-reaching city views. Communal amenities include a residents’ gym, concierge, lift access and secure bike storage.
The location is highly connected: Hackney Downs station is a short walk with Liverpool Street reachable in under 15 minutes, and Mare Street’s shops, cafés and nightlife are around the corner. Green space is immediate — Hackney Downs Park is minutes away, with London Fields and Victoria Park an easy ride.
Practical details are straightforward: the property is leasehold with 114 years remaining, an average service charge of £2,196 per year (£183 pcm) and ground rent £350 per year. Heating runs on a community scheme and the building was constructed post-2012 with double glazing and modern finishes throughout.
Buyers should note local context: the area records higher crime levels and is classified as very deprived, which may affect long-term resale or rental demand. For buyers seeking a bright, low-maintenance modern home or a well-located investment close to excellent transport links, this apartment offers strong day-to-day convenience and comfortable living.
