Property Oracle says ..
This three-bedroom, two-bathroom penthouse apartment located on Old Street in the vibrant Bunhill area of Islington presents a compelling offering for discerning buyers. The apartment’s modern design, evident in the high-quality finishes and open-plan living areas, are enhanced by abundant natural light from floor-to-ceiling windows. A significant feature is the large private terrace offering city views. The property’s location is a key strength, given its proximity to excellent transport links (Old Street Underground station is nearby), the City of London, and Tech City, alongside numerous amenities and well-regarded schools. While specific square footage data for comparable properties is limited, the listed price appears competitive for a property of this style and standing in this area. The lack of substantial outdoor space beyond the terrace is a point to note for potential buyers seeking a larger garden. However, for those prioritising a luxurious, well-connected, and modern apartment in central London, this property represents a strong choice.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
