Industrial-character two-bed near Victoria Park with soaring 3.1m ceilings.
Triple-aspect apartment with panoramic park and Canary Wharf views
This triple-aspect two-bedroom apartment in Albany Works pairs dramatic warehouse character with contemporary living. High 3.1m ceilings, Crittall-style windows and exposed brick create an airy, light-filled environment with panoramic views over Victoria Park, Queen Elizabeth Park and Canary Wharf. The open-plan living space, bespoke birch plywood kitchen and a dedicated home office make the layout especially versatile for working from home.
At 845 sq ft the flat feels generous for a two-bedroom and includes two bathrooms, recent bathroom refurbishment with integrated utility, and useful built-in storage off the master bedroom. Practical details include double glazing, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, and allocated off-street parking often available to rent.
Important considerations: the property is leasehold with 103 years remaining and a modest ground rent of £250. The building is a former warehouse with solid brick walls (no built-in insulation assumed) — upgrading thermal insulation could be advisable. The area is classified as very deprived with a high local crime rate, which may affect long-term resale or rental appeal despite excellent transport links and proximity to green space.
This apartment will suit first-time buyers or professionals who value characterful, spacious interiors and park access, and who are comfortable managing typical considerations of a period conversion in an inner-city location. Its size, on-site character and strong natural light offer clear potential for owners wanting a distinctive London home or a city rental with strong transport connectivity.
