Set within a gated warehouse-style development in the heart of Shoreditch, this one-bedroom apartment offers a bright open-plan reception with a Juliet balcony and high ceilings. The 517 sq ft layout maximises space with wooden floors and a modern fitted kitchen — ideal for city living and entertaining. Shoreditch High Street station is just 0.2 miles away, with Liverpool Street within easy walking distance, placing central London transport links on your doorstep.
The property is practical for a first-time buyer seeking a contemporary urban base: double glazing, recent construction (2003–2006) and compact, efficient rooms reduce immediate maintenance demands. The flat is leasehold and council tax band C; the gated setting provides a degree of privacy and a parking area on site.
Buyers should note material facts plainly: heating is electric via room heaters rather than mains gas, broadband speeds in the area are reported very slow, and local crime levels are high. The surrounding area is centrally vibrant but classified as deprived and mixed-employment; some may find noise and busy streets typical of Shoreditch nightlife.
This apartment suits someone prioritising location, style and low-maintenance city living over countryside space or fast home broadband. It could also work as a buy-to-let in a strong rental market, though purchasers should check lease length, service charges and rental yields before committing.
