This home suits a first-time buyer seeking affordable entry to Dalston and Hackney amenities. Transport links are strong: Hackney Central and Hackney Downs stations are close, and Broadway Market, shops and green spaces like Victoria Park are within easy reach.

Buyers should note the material running costs: an annual service charge around £2,500 and typical ground rent c. £300. This is a leasehold shared ownership sale (35%–100% available) with a community electric heating scheme. The immediate area scores high for crime and a degree of deprivation, which may concern some buyers despite excellent local amenities and fast broadband.
Overall this apartment offers a well-presented, low-maintenance base for first-time buyers or investors wanting rental potential in a well-connected inner-London location, provided they factor ongoing service charges and the neighbourhood profile into their decision.
