Chain-free one-bedroom apartment moments from Brick Lane — great central location with a private balcony..
Chain-free one-bedroom with private balcony
Set just off Brick Lane in Shoreditch, this chain-free one-bedroom apartment offers a bright living room, private balcony and modern kitchen — ideal for a first-time buyer seeking central city living or a buy-to-let investor wanting strong rental appeal. The flat is in good decorative order with wood-style flooring, double glazing and gas central heating.
Floor space is efficient across an average-sized 519 sq ft (approx 48.2 sqm) layout: a generous double bedroom, a well-proportioned reception with balcony access, a bathroom plus separate W/C, and a contemporary kitchen. Transport links are strong — Liverpool Street, Aldgate and Shoreditch High Street are all within walking distance — and local amenities include markets, cafés and parks nearby.
Notable costs and constraints: the property is leasehold with approximately 100 years remaining, an annual service charge around £3,000 and a nominal ground rent of £10. The building is mid-20th century solid brick construction (likely without cavity insulation) and glazing was fitted before 2002, which may mean future upgrading and maintenance costs. The immediate area is lively and cosmopolitan but sits within a generally deprived ward, which may affect long-term resale considerations.
