Summary - Solander Gardens, Shadwell, London, E1 E1 0DW
1 bed 1 bath Studio
Compact, light-filled apartment ideal for first-time buyers or investors.
Bright studio with balcony and separate kitchen
A bright studio arranged with a distinct living area, separate kitchen and contemporary bathroom — compact but well laid out for single occupancy or a couple. Large windows and a balcony bring natural light to the main room, and neutral decor means it’s ready to personalise. The building dates from the mid-20th century and the apartment benefits from double glazing and mains gas central heating.
Practical points suit first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors: the flat comes with a long lease (101 years) and straightforward room layout across c.342 sq ft. Local transport links at Shadwell and Wapping, plus a wide range of shops, cafes and amenities, place central London minutes away, making commuting and letting convenient.
Be clear about the material considerations: the property is leasehold with an annual service charge of about £1,824 and a low ground rent. The wider neighbourhood scores as very deprived and crime is above average, which may affect long-term resale values and rental income assumptions. The 1950s–60s construction suggests cavity walls with no assumed insulation, so further energy upgrades could be needed.
Overall this property offers an affordable central-London entry point with immediate rental or occupation potential, but buyers should factor in service charges, neighbourhood profile and likely retrofit costs when judging long-term value.
