A bright, compact apartment on Glenarm Road offering immediate move-in convenience and clear potential to return to a one-bedroom layout. The large south-facing windows flood the living space with light, making the most of the apartment’s circa 400 sq ft. Its third-floor position in a small, low-rise development gives a quiet cul-de-sac setting close to Chatsworth Road and Hackney Central.
This property will suit first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors wanting a well-connected, easy-to-manage London home. The current studio layout already feels generous; adding a simple partition wall would create a proper one-bedroom flat without structural work. The flat benefits from double glazing, a modern combi boiler, built-in storage, secure entry and off-street parking.
Important practical points: the lease has 90 years remaining, the service charge is around £1,200 per year and ground rent is nominal. The wider area is inner-city Hackney with excellent transport links and many local amenities, but it has a high crime level and is classified as very deprived — factors to weigh when considering long-term value and insurance costs.
Overall this chain-free flat offers bright, low-maintenance city living with straightforward scope to convert to a one-bedroom home, positioned for easy access to parks, Overground stations and local shops.
