Secure gated development with residents’ off-street parking
Excellent transport links: Whitechapel and Stepney Green nearby
Leasehold with 83 years remaining — urgent extension likely needed
Service charge c. £4,379 pa (above-average)
No onward chain; quick completion possible

Set on Mile End Road, this larger-than-average three-bedroom flat offers generous living space and a sunny south-facing balcony with Canary Wharf views. The living room flows to the balcony, and the fitted kitchen/diner provides enough space for everyday meals. The property is chain free and benefits from secure gated entry, residents’ parking and ample built-in storage.
Practical aspects are straightforward: double glazing, a modern shower room, separate WC, and a community heating scheme. Transport links are excellent with Whitechapel and Stepney Green stations nearby and frequent buses to the City and West End. Several well-rated schools are within easy reach, making the location convenient for families and commuters.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the flat is leasehold with 83 years remaining — a short lease that will require prompt extension; the service charge is relatively high at around £4,379 per year; and the building sits in an area with very high recorded crime rates. The heating is on a community scheme and there are modest communal maintenance obligations.
This property will suit a first-time buyer willing to manage a lease extension or an investor seeking a ready-to-rent London flat with good transport links. Viewings are recommended for those prioritising space, location and a south-facing balcony over a long lease and low ongoing charges.
