Anyone looking to tap into the creative energy and undeniable cool of East London can't go wrong with this stunning three-bedroom flat, just a stone's throw from the heart of Shoreditch. With its privileged sixth-floor vantage point, gaze through floor-to-ceiling windows across the low-rise landscape of East London's Victorian terraces, or breathe in the atmosphere from one of the private balconies. The living space's open layout calls for sociable evenings with friends, while exposed concrete and monolithic kitchen units evoke the area's industrial past. To break up the straight lines and subdued colour palette, your hosts have added eye-catching modern art, gorgeous pieces of pottery and lush houseplants throughout. Just steps away from Shoreditch High St, the apartment is your gateway to the iconic street art, cheap eats, street markets and vibrant nightlife that characterise this corner of the capital. We particularly love the diverse culinary scene here, and you're certainly spoiled for choice when it comes to mouthwatering meals in this cultural melting pot. Within a fifteen-minute walk, you can get stuck into flavourful Vietnamese broths near Hoxton, pick up an iconic salt beef beigel or tuck into a post-pub Indian meal on Brick Lane. At the same time, there's a... plethora of more upmarket options surrounding Liverpool Street station.
