Light-filled third-floor apartment in a central Hoxton block, ideal for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking immediate city living. The flat offers a separate kitchen, a good-sized double bedroom and a bright reception with large windows overlooking communal courtyard gardens. Practical fixtures, laminate flooring and furnished presentation mean move-in ready comfort.
Important ownership facts affect long-term costs and flexibility. The property is leasehold with 88 years remaining, a service charge of about £1,656pa and a nominal ground rent of £10pa. The block is Grade II listed, which may restrict alterations and can complicate permission for changes or extensions.
Built in the late 1960s–1970s with system-built construction, the building likely has limited wall insulation and double glazing installed before 2002; further upgrading may be needed for thermal performance. Transport and local amenities are excellent — Hoxton Overground and Columbia Road are close by — though the surrounding area scores high for deprivation, so buyers should weigh community context as well as convenience.
Overall this compact 481 sq ft flat suits a single occupant or couple wanting an affordable central London entry point, or an investor targeting central Hoxton rental demand. Check mortgageability because of the remaining lease and confirm listing constraints before proceeding.
