Set on the sixth floor of a modern canal-side development, this 1,534 sq ft three-double-bedroom apartment delivers a rare expanse of open-plan living in N1. The principal reception extends to around 700 sq ft, with two balconies that look over the Regents Canal, filling the interior with daylight and offering a peaceful waterside aspect. Three bathrooms, an allocated underground parking space and concierge add practical convenience for a professional household or family.
The apartment is presented in a contemporary, neutral finish: tiled floors, recessed lighting, integrated kitchen units and double glazing. The layout works well for comfortable family living or professional sharers — a large master with en suite plus two further doubles and a second en suite/family bathroom make the plan flexible. The long lease (c. 979 years) and chain-free sale simplify purchase logistics.
Notable running costs are material: an annual service charge of £9,750 and a ground rent of £400 are payable, so factor these into affordability calculations. Heating is electric with underfloor distribution — efficient for comfort but likely more costly than gas alternatives. Constructed in the early 2000s, the building is modern but buyers should check service charge accounts and communal maintenance plans.
Positioned moments from Angel and Old Street stations, the flat benefits from excellent connections, fast broadband and a low-crime, inner-city setting close to Upper Street and Shoreditch. This is a sizeable, well-specified apartment for buyers seeking a spacious, low-maintenance home or a high-demand rental asset in central Islington.
