Summary - 1, GAINSBOROUGH STUDIOS SOUTH, POOLE STREET N1 5EE
2 bed 2 bath Flat
Stylish seventh-floor apartment moments from Shoreditch Park and Old Street.
Two double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes
Situated on the seventh floor of a landmark Gainsborough development, this newly refurbished two-double-bedroom flat offers bright, contemporary living moments from Shoreditch Park. The open-plan kitchen/living/dining area features a high-spec bespoke kitchen and solid oak parquet flooring, while both bedrooms include built-in wardrobes and a modern bathroom. The apartment faces a quiet courtyard, providing a peaceful aspect despite the central location.
Practical details suit buyers seeking a move-in-ready London home: 745 sq ft of accommodation, a very long lease (975 years), and double glazing. Onsite amenities include a 24-hour concierge and a gym within the development (membership not included), plus a Co-Op and coffee shop on site. Excellent transport links to Old Street, Essex Road and Highbury & Islington put the City and wider London within easy reach.
Buyers should note ongoing costs and heating type. The service charge is above average at £5,000pa and there is an annual ground rent of £200. Main heating is by electric room heaters rather than a central gas system, which may affect running costs. The development is car-free with on-street parking only, and the wider neighbourhood is a multicultural, inner-city area with mixed socioeconomic indicators.
Overall, this flat will appeal to first-time buyers or professionals wanting a stylish, ready-to-live-in apartment close to Shoreditch’s amenities and transport — provided they are comfortable with higher service charges and electric heating.
