This bright two-bedroom first-floor apartment on Underwood Road offers a contemporary, open-plan layout ideal for a first-time buyer seeking space and light in a central location. Floor-to-ceiling south-facing glazing floods the living area and leads to a private balcony, creating an airy feel across 804 sq ft. The generous master bedroom fits a king-size bed; the second bedroom suits a double bed and home workspace.
The development is newly built (post-2012) and includes useful communal amenities: a roof terrace with city views, secure fob/videophone entry and indoor bicycle storage. The kitchen is fitted with integrated appliances including dishwasher and washer/dryer; the bathroom is larger than typical local flats. Excellent transport links (Whitechapel Elizabeth line nearby) make the City and wider London easily reachable.
Practical costs and tenure are important: the flat is leasehold with 114 years remaining, an annual service charge of about £2,600 and ground rent around £400. Broadband speeds are reported slow despite excellent mobile signal; consider this if you work from home. The wider neighbourhood is lively and well connected but classified as deprived with average crime levels, which may not suit everyone.
Overall, this apartment suits buyers prioritising central location, natural light and contemporary living. It offers immediate move-in condition with scope for personalisation, balanced by leasehold running costs and local infrastructure limitations.
