This well-presented two-bedroom apartment on Hooper Street offers a practical, comfortable home for a first-time buyer looking to move into central London. Arranged on the third floor, the property benefits from a bright, spacious reception room that opens onto a private balcony, plus a modern adjoining kitchen and two double bedrooms. At approximately 855 sq ft, the layout provides generous living space and two bathrooms for everyday convenience.
The building includes concierge and lift access, and the apartment sits within an inner-city, cosmopolitan pocket with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal—useful for remote working and streaming. Local amenities are abundant, from supermarkets and cafes to cinemas and transport links, making commuting and weekend life straightforward.
Important considerations: the property is leasehold, so buyers should verify lease length, ground rent and service charge details. The local crime level is recorded as very high and the area is characterised as a multicultural student neighbourhood, which can mean increased footfall and occasional noise. These factors are material to comfort and running costs and should be checked before committing.
Overall, this apartment offers roomy accommodation and a private balcony in a well-connected central location. It will suit a buyer seeking a well-located, move-in-ready flat with scope to personalise, provided they are comfortable with leasehold ownership and the realities of an active inner-city neighbourhood.
