This bright, 630 sq ft one-bedroom apartment in the 250 City Road development offers straightforward, contemporary living for a first-time buyer or city professional. The open-plan kitchen/reception opens onto a generous private terrace, extending the living space for entertaining or outdoor relaxation. Fixtures in the kitchen and bathroom are modern and well finished, so the apartment is liveable from day one.
Practical strengths include lift access, double glazing, a long remaining lease of 117 years and chain-free sale — all rare conveniences that simplify moving and future resale. Transport links are strong: Angel, Old Street and Barbican stations are within easy reach, and the nearby canal provides pleasant walking routes and local cafés.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold property on a community heating scheme (mains gas), with communal grounds and communal management responsibilities. The immediate area scores as inner-city, with high crime levels and pockets of deprivation reported; that may affect perception and resale in the short term. Council tax is moderate.
Overall, the apartment suits someone seeking a low-maintenance, well-specified one-bed close to major transport hubs. It offers immediate comfort with clear potential to personalise the open-plan space, while practical buyers should factor communal costs, the leasehold status and local area issues into their decision.
