Set on the first floor of a well-regarded modern development on Packington Street, this one-bedroom apartment offers low-maintenance central Islington living with bright, contemporary interiors. The open-plan reception benefits from floor-to-ceiling glazing and a south-west-facing balcony, bringing excellent afternoon sunlight into the living space. A fitted modern kitchen and built-in wardrobes in the bedroom keep the apartment streamlined and move-in ready. Practical details suit buyers seeking straightforward ownership: the property is chain free, has an EWS1 pass, lift access, secure entry and bike storage. Transport links are strong — Angel Underground is around 0.6 miles away — and local shops, cafés and green spaces are within easy walking distance. Costs and context are clear: the flat is leasehold with approximately 111 years remaining, an annual service charge of about £2,412 and a small ground rent of £156. The immediate neighbourhood is inner-city and mixed in employment; local area deprivation indicators are high and crime is average, reflecting an urban environment with both amenities and typical city drawbacks. Overall, this compact apartment suits a first-time buyer or investor wanting a modern, well-located London base with low upkeep and straightforward access to the City, provided they accept communal costs and an inner-city setting.
