1 bed flat for sale

Provost Street, London N1

A 660 sq ft one-bedroom flat on the third floor of 41 Provost Street, a riba Award-winning 2006 building about five minutes’ walk from Old Street station. The lease has 102 years to run, the sale is sold with vacant possession, and the legal pack is already prepared.

The flat sits between Angel, Shoreditch and the City, each about 15 minutes on foot, with Upper Street, Hoxton Square and Liverpool Street all walkable. Closer still are Whitecross Street market, Shoreditch Park and the Regent’s Canal at Wenlock Basin, each under ten minutes. The building has a settled, friendly community with an active residents’ group, and the cafés and restaurants of Old Street and Hoxton are on the doorstep.

The flat faces the development’s private internal garden, so it is quiet and private. The open-plan living, dining and kitchen space runs 30 ft from the entrance to full-height glazing and a 15 ft balcony above mature trees. The kitchen has a breakfast bar and an integrated oven and hob, with room for a dining table. The double bedroom (15 ft 3 by 9 ft 2) has a built-in wardrobe and its own door onto the balcony, with the same garden view. The bathroom has a full-size bath with shower over. Storage is unusually good for a one-bedroom flat: A second built-in wardrobe in the hallway, a walk-in store and a further cupboard.

The building has a concierge Monday to Saturday, two lifts, daily cleaning of the common parts and a covered, secure cycle store. The service charge is £2,334.24 a year and the ground rent £250 a year. The freeholder, Peabody, has confirmed the building’s external wall position in writing, and that letter and the Landlord’s Certificate under the Building Safety Act are both in the legal pack.

EPC rating B (score 85, assessed April 2026), with the certificate estimating £518 a year for heating, hot water and lighting. Council

Tax band D.

Old Street (Northern line, and National Rail to Moorgate) is about five minutes’ walk; Hoxton Overground is ten, Shoreditch High Street and Barbican about fifteen. Provost Street itself is a quiet residential street.

The guide price of £475,000 works out at about £720 per sq ft, a lower rate than the smaller one-bedroom flats sold in the building since 2024. For investors, one-bedroom flats in the building let at around £2,500 a month, a gross yield above 6 per cent at the guide price.
