Secure gated development with parking and easy access to vibrant local amenities.
Ground-floor two-bedroom apartment, 584 sq ft
This well-presented two-bedroom apartment sits on the ground floor of a secure gated development moments from Hackney Road and Columbia Road. The reception room is bright and the separate integrated kitchen keeps living and cooking areas distinct. Off-street parking is rare for the area and adds clear everyday convenience.
The layout is traditional and efficient across 584 sq ft: two well-proportioned bedrooms, a stylish bathroom and useful built-in storage. Heating is by mains gas boiler and double glazing is fitted. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent — useful for home-working or streaming.
Practical points to note: the overall size is small compared with larger London homes and the lease has 85 years remaining, which some buyers or lenders consider short. The wider neighbourhood is classed as very deprived despite being an inner-city cosmopolitan area popular with tech workers; local crime is low and the immediate area offers abundant amenities, good schools and public transport links.
This property suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking a manageable two-bedroom in Shoreditch with parking and secure access. It offers straightforward living now and potential to improve value with cosmetic updating, while the share-of-freehold tenure provides more control than a conventional leasehold.
