High local crime and area deprivation — buyer caution advised
Set on Cheshire Street, moments from Brick Lane and Shoreditch High Street station, this ground-floor apartment offers generous, flexible living in the heart of east London. The large open-plan reception and newly fitted contemporary kitchen open onto a private rear courtyard, giving unusually generous indoor-outdoor space for a central flat. The apartment is recorded at approximately 746–780 sq ft (sources vary), making it noticeably larger than many one-bedroom city flats.
The long lease (974 years) and clear layout give practical ownership security and scope for changes. There is potential to reconfigure the space into a two-bedroom apartment subject to planning consent, which creates added appeal for first-time buyers seeking room to grow or investors targeting higher rental yields.
Charges and location considerations are factual and important: the property is leasehold with an annual service charge of £3,703.50 (includes water rates) and a small ground rent of £100 per year. The local area is inner-city cosmopolitan with excellent transport links and amenities, but it also records higher crime levels and pockets of deprivation — factors buyers should weigh against the lifestyle benefits of Shoreditch and Brick Lane.
This apartment will suit buyers who prioritise central location, space, and conversion potential over tranquillity. The build dates (1996–2002) and pre-2002 double glazing are practical details; heating is mains gas boiler and radiators. Viewings are recommended for those wanting a spacious, adaptable flat in an active urban neighbourhood.
