Spacious two-bedroom, two-bath apartment offering over 1,100 sq ft of lateral living in a sought-after Old Street location. The open-plan kitchen and living area, wooden floors throughout and a sizeable master with en suite provide comfortable, practical living for first-time buyers or couples wanting space to grow.
Set on the fourth floor of an Edwardian building, the home benefits from a long lease (971 years) and double glazing. The immediate area is supremely well connected — Angel, Old Street and Kings Cross are all within easy walking distance, with plentiful shops, cafés and transport links on the doorstep.
Buyers should note the apartment uses electric room heaters rather than a full central heating system, and the building’s walls are solid brick with presumed no added insulation. Annual service charges are approximately £3,000 with a £200 ground rent; council tax is in a higher band. The surrounding neighbourhood records higher crime statistics and some measures of local deprivation, factors to weigh alongside the excellent central location.
For those seeking roomy, characterful accommodation near Islington’s shops and transport, this apartment delivers scale and convenience with straightforward potential to personalise and upgrade heating and insulation over time.
