Second-floor Victorian conversion with high ceilings and wood floors
A light-filled one-bedroom period conversion on the second floor, this compact flat offers high ceilings, exposed wood floors and far-reaching London skyline views. The open-plan kitchen/living room faces Hackney City Farm, while the bedroom at the rear benefits from storage and skyline vistas. Chain-free and with 109 years remaining on the lease, it suits buyers seeking immediate central London living.
The location is a key strength: Broadway Market, Columbia Road and Victoria Park are within easy reach, and Overground connections (Cambridge Heath/Hoxton ~0.4 miles, Bethnal Green ~0.9 miles) put Shoreditch and the City close by. The property is in a lively, inner-city cosmopolitan area with plentiful local amenities, cafés and transport options.
Important practical points: the flat is small at approximately 435 sq ft and carries a service charge around £3,819 pa plus a ground rent of £250. Heating is via a community mains-gas scheme and double glazing is fitted (install date unknown). Broadband speeds are reported as very slow, which may affect remote working.
This conversion will suit a first-time buyer or city professional prioritising location, character and skyline views over generous space. It also offers straightforward rental potential for investors looking for a well-located central-London one-bed, but factor in running costs and the modest floor area.
