Summary - 61, Rectory Square E1 3NG
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Affordable E1 flat with garden access and clear upgrade potential.
Private ground-floor entrance and communal garden access
This ground-floor one-bedroom flat offers practical space and direct access to well-kept communal gardens, making it a quiet city base with outdoor amenity. The private entrance and a spacious reception room create a feeling of separation from communal corridors often found in flats.
The interior is livable but will reward updating: the kitchen is dated and requires refurbishment, and the property has double glazing installed before 2002 and cavity walls without added insulation (assumed). These factors present clear scope to improve energy efficiency and modernise the layout to increase comfort and long‑term value.
Practical details matter: the lease has about 94 years remaining, the service charge averages £1,500 per year and ground rent is £10 (unknown basis). Heating is provided via a community mains-gas scheme. There is no flood risk and local crime levels are very low.
Positioned moments from local shops, transport links and Stepney Green Park, the flat suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking an affordable entry into E1 with straightforward upgrade potential. Nearby well-rated schools and fast broadband add appeal for everyday living.
