The open-plan kitchen/living room opens onto a private balcony, creating a bright, sociable space for relaxing or entertaining. The double bedroom benefits from floor-to-ceiling glazing and built-in storage, while the bathroom includes a bath with an overhead shower.
The building was designed for energy efficiency: solar panels, water-based underfloor heating throughout and a mechanical ventilation/heat-recovery system reduce running demand and improve winter comfort. Residents also have lift access, communal roof terrace, bicycle storage and secure telecom entry. The flat is offered chain free with a long lease (114 years) and an EPC rating of C.
Important practical points are clear: the property is leasehold with an average service charge of about £3,000 per year, and main heating is electric (underfloor) on an unspecified tariff. The area has very high recorded crime levels, which may affect insurance and personal security perceptions. The flat’s 581 sq ft is average-sized and suits single buyers, couples or investors seeking a well-specified urban rental.
Overall, this is a modern, low-maintenance apartment with strong commuter access and sustainability features. Buyers should factor in ongoing service charges, the leasehold tenure and local crime statistics when assessing affordability and suitability.
