This bright two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment in Carillon Court offers well-proportioned living across approximately 666 sq ft. The open-plan living/kitchen opens onto a west-facing balcony with city views and evening light, while the principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room. Located on the third floor with lift access, the flat is in a modern block built after 2007 and has double glazing throughout.
Practical running costs and tenure are clear: the property is leasehold with about 106 years remaining, an average service charge of £2,800 and a small ground rent of £250. Heating is by electric room heaters and the main fuel is electricity, so factor in higher energy costs compared with gas-heated flats.
The location places you close to Brick Lane, Whitechapel and Aldgate East, with abundant local shops, markets and transport links — mobile signal is excellent, broadband speeds average. However, the neighbourhood records very high crime and is classified as very deprived, which will influence long-term yields and resale appeal for some buyers.
Overall this apartment suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking a modern, low-maintenance city base with good connectivity and clear running costs. Buyers should weigh the strong location and contemporary finish against local area challenges and the electric heating system when deciding to view.
