Summary - 25 Strahan Road E3 5DA
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Characterful two-bed near parks and fast city links.
Top-floor two-bedroom period conversion, high ceilings and sash windows
Set on the top floor of a period conversion in a conservation area, this two-bedroom flat blends original Victorian features with central convenience. High ceilings, sash windows, wooden floors and original fireplaces create characterful living spaces and generous natural light. At about 581 sq ft, the layout is compact and efficient, suitable for those seeking a character home close to central London.
The apartment is well placed for commuters: Mile End station and bus routes are nearby, with the City around 15 minutes and Canary Wharf about 20 minutes. Mile End Park and Victoria Park are within easy reach, offering green space, leisure facilities and weekend markets. Local amenities are comprehensive, from cafes and shops to health services and cycle hire.
Practical points are straightforward: the property is leasehold with about 163 years remaining and is offered chain free. Construction is original solid-brick stock (c.1900–1929) likely with limited wall insulation; the building uses mains gas boiler and radiators. Crime levels in the area are above average and the wider neighbourhood scores as deprived, which are important considerations for some buyers.
This apartment will suit first-time buyers or professionals who value period character and location over internal space, or investors seeking a centrally located rental with strong transport links. Some updating or energy improvements would enhance comfort and long-term running costs, but the flat provides a ready-made, characterful base in a popular east London pocket.
