This large one-bedroom apartment in Dalston Square offers unusually generous space for a central London one-bed, with around 860 sq ft of internal area and a private balcony off the open-plan living space. Positioned on the sixth floor of a contemporary development, the flat benefits from excellent natural light, modern fitted kitchen, built-in storage and a well-proportioned bedroom — move-in ready for owner-occupiers or buy-to-let investors.
Residents have strong on-site amenities including a 24-hour concierge, residents' gym and communal roof terrace, which add convenience and lifestyle value. Transport links are excellent with Dalston Junction and Dalston Kingsland close by, providing fast Overground connections into Shoreditch, Highbury & Islington and The City. The apartment is offered chain-free and sits on a long lease (about 109 years).
Practical considerations affect running costs: the average service charge is around £4,000 per year and heating is provided via a mains gas community scheme, which may limit individual control and affect bills. The building has extensive glazing — attractive for light and views but potentially increasing heat loss and maintenance needs. The wider locale is lively and amenity-rich, but crime statistics and area deprivation levels are high, which may be a concern for some purchasers.
Overall this flat will suit first-time buyers seeking a spacious, ready-to-live-in central Dalston home or investors looking for a well-located rental asset. Buyers should factor in communal costs and local area issues when assessing value and suitability.
