Private garden — rare outdoors space for an inner‑city flat

Long leasehold tenure; buyers should confirm remaining term
462 sq ft; compact one-bedroom layout, efficient use of space
EPC C; double glazing present, install date unknown
Solid brick walls with no confirmed insulation — potential heating costs
Above-average local crime and pockets of area deprivation
Excellent mobile signal and fast broadband for home working
This recently refurbished one-bedroom flat on Albion Road blends Victorian character with contemporary finishes, making it a strong option for first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors. The spacious reception room and high ceilings create an airy feeling, while the modern kitchen and bathroom offer move-in-ready convenience. A private garden is a rare and valuable addition for inner-city living — useful for entertaining, drying laundry or relaxing outdoors.
Practical strengths include a long lease, an EPC rating of C and affordable Council Tax (band C). The apartment is compact at 462 sq ft but well laid out for urban living, with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal for remote working. Its location close to Newington Green’s cafés, shops and transport links puts central London and the City within easy reach.
Be upfront about the material drawbacks: the building dates from before 1900 and walls are solid brick with no confirmed insulation, which may mean higher heating costs despite double glazing of unknown installation date. Crime in the immediate area is above average and the wider locality shows pockets of deprivation — factors to weigh when considering resale or rental prospects. The property is leasehold; buyers should verify the remaining lease length and any service charges.
Overall, this flat offers a rare private garden and freshly refurbished interiors in a sought-after Stoke Newington location. It suits buyers seeking immediate occupancy with scope to increase value through targeted improvements (insulation, window upgrades) or investors looking for a compact, well-connected city rental.
