Bright, chain-free two-bed with balcony and parking near Old Street.
Two bedrooms and two bathrooms, suitable for sharers or guests
Bright two-bedroom apartment set between Clerkenwell and Old Street, designed as an efficient urban home or pied-à-terre. The open-plan living/kitchen leads to a private balcony with views across Radnor Park, bringing natural light into the principal spaces. Two bedrooms and two bathrooms add practical flexibility for sharers or guests.
The building is a converted, modern-industrial development with double glazing and gas central heating. The sale is chain free and comes with a share of freehold plus access to two communal off-street parking spaces — a rare perk for the area. Excellent transport links (Old Street, Barbican, Moorgate and Farringdon nearby) make central London working commutes straightforward.
Notable practical points: the apartment is compact at approximately 590 sq ft, with an average service charge of around £2,125 per year and a lease of 98 years remaining — factors an informed first-time buyer should consider for mortgage and long-term costs. EPC rating C and mains gas heating are positives for running costs.
The neighbourhood is inner-city and cosmopolitan with many amenities, cafes and cultural venues close by. However, local data flags higher crime levels and area deprivation; prospective buyers should visit at different times to judge street feel and security firsthand.
