A bright, modern one-bedroom apartment on Plumbers Row offering efficient city living in E1. The semi open-plan reception and fully integrated kitchen open onto a Juliette balcony, bringing in natural light throughout the day. Residents benefit from on-site gym, roof terrace, 24-hour concierge and secure bicycle storage — practical extras for an urban lifestyle.
At about 474 sq ft, the layout suits a single buyer or couple wanting central access to Aldgate, Spitalfields and Shoreditch. Built around 1996–2002 with double glazing installed, the flat feels contemporary and low-maintenance. Council Tax Band C and the compact size keep running costs manageable, while excellent mobile signal and fast broadband support home working.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold and heated by electric room heaters rather than a communal gas system, which can affect ongoing energy costs. The surrounding neighbourhood is inner-city and classified as deprived with average crime levels; this central location trades a quieter suburb for immediate access to shops, transport hubs and nightlife.
This apartment appeals to first-time buyers seeking a city base with communal amenities and good transport links. It also offers straightforward letting potential for investors, though tenure and heating should be checked before proceeding.
