Set on the third floor of a mid-20th century purpose-built block, this roomy one-bedroom flat offers comfortable, well-proportioned accommodation and a private balcony. The generous reception room has space for dining and daily living; the separate kitchen, while serviceable, dates from the mid-century and will benefit from updating. Total area is around 581 sq ft — a comfortable size for a first home in central London.
Practical details include a separate bathroom and WC, good broadband and excellent mobile signal, and on-site vehicle parking within the communal landscaped setting. The property is a leasehold and located in an inner-city, mixed-employment area close to Mile End Road and Whitechapel station, giving fast links across the city and a wide range of shops and local amenities on the doorstep.
Buyers should note material negatives honestly: the immediate area is classified as deprived and records very high crime levels, and the kitchen and some internal finishes will need modernisation. These factors affect both living comfort and resale/letting assumptions, though the flat’s size, balcony and transport links give practical upside for many first-time buyers.
This flat will suit a buyer seeking an affordable entry into Tower Hamlets with immediate access to central London, who is prepared to refresh the interior to personal taste. Alternatively, it could interest investors mindful of rental demand near transport and local schools, but both buyer types should factor in the leasehold status and local safety considerations when viewing and budgeting.
