Up on the seventh floor, this East London apartment earns its views – floor-to-ceiling windows frame the cityscape, and a large private balcony makes morning coffee feel a little ceremonial. The living space is bright and calm, with a considered contemporary feel that works just as well for a working week as a city break. Mile End Tube Station is under a ten-minute walk, putting Liverpool Street five minutes away by Central line – so the city's landmarks, from Tower Bridge to Tate Modern, are well within reach without the central London price tag.

About Mile End
Popular with people who commute to work in the City of London, Mile End is a neighbourhood experiencing increasing interest. Steeped in history, the area features a mix of architecture, ranging from eighteenth-century terraced houses to converted warehouses and post-war tower blocks. As this is a residential area in East London, it's best if you don't mind the peace and quiet. Though as you're on the central line, you can be in Oxford Circus in less than twenty minutes, which is pretty ideal if you're not too fussed about being in the heart of the action.
