Large-feel one-bed with private terrace and excellent transport links.
- Private terrace with glass-railed balcony, direct from reception
A bright, modern one-bedroom flat on Merchant Street offering a rare private terrace and generous living space for this size. At about 608 sq ft, the interior feels larger than a typical one-bedroom, with large windows and direct terrace access that flood the open-plan reception with sunlight. The kitchen and bathroom are contemporary and the bedroom benefits from built-in wardrobe storage.
Built between 2003–2006 with double glazing and gas central heating, the property is ready to move into with minimal immediate work. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal make it convenient for home working, while strong Transport for London links connect you quickly to Mile End, Bow Road, Stratford and Canary Wharf.
Practical points to note: the flat is leasehold with a ground rent of £250; the current service charge and remaining lease length should be checked. The local area is classed as deprived and described as a Bangladeshi mixed-employment, inner-city cosmopolitan neighbourhood — amenities and several highly rated primary and secondary schools are nearby, but some buyers may find the immediate area busy.
This property suits a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking a low-maintenance, well-connected one-bedroom with outside space. It offers immediate comfort and rental appeal but make enquiries about ongoing service charges, lease length and any communal maintenance liabilities before committing.
