Contemporary one-bed flat moments from Brick Lane and Spitalfields markets.
Gated development, raised ground floor apartment
A contemporary one-bedroom raised ground-floor flat in a gated development, perfectly placed between Spitalfields and Brick Lane. The dual-aspect open-plan living space and modern finishes create an airy, city-centre home or rental suited to someone seeking immediate access to markets, eateries and nightlife.
Practical benefits include double glazing, a 103-year lease remaining and a compact 481 sq ft layout that’s straightforward to maintain. Excellent mobile signal supports home working and streaming, while proximity to multiple transport links makes central London commutes simple.
Important negatives to note: heating is by electric room heaters (no gas central heating), and broadband speeds are very slow — upgrades may be needed. The wider area records higher crime levels and local deprivation, which could influence reselling or family choices. Leasehold tenure applies; buyers should check service charges and ground rent commitments.
This flat suits a first-time buyer wanting an affordable entry to an inner-city postcode or an investor seeking a well-located one-bed with strong rental demand. The property is ready to occupy but may benefit from minor modernisation and a broadband/heating update to maximise comfort and future value.
