A bright, raised-ground one-bedroom flat in an industrial-style gated development, offering compact city living in the heart of Spitalfields. The reception room and separate modern kitchen create a practical daily layout, while a generous bedroom with built-in storage suits a single person or couple.
Residents benefit from secure entry and access to communal gardens, and Aldgate East and local bus routes are within easy walking distance for rapid links across the city. The property sits moments from shops, cafés and the vibrant markets of Spitalfields and Commercial Street.
Practical considerations are straightforward: the flat is small at 433 sq ft, with a lease of 91 years remaining. Service charges are relatively high and broadband speeds in the block are reported as very slow, which may affect home working. The surrounding area is inner-city and multicultural but records higher crime and very high deprivation indices; buyers should visit at different times to confirm suitability.
Overall this is a well-presented, low-maintenance city flat that suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking a central one-bedroom in a lively part of London, provided they accept the size, service costs and local area characteristics.
