Alton House is located in Bow, just off the Bow Roundabout, and moments from a host of travel options. There are 3 tube stops within walking distance: Bromley-by-Bow, and Bow Road (District and Hammersmith & City lines) and Bow Church (DLR). There are also a host of bus options including 8, 25, 108, 276, 425, D8, N205, 488, as well as a Boris Bike station at the end of the road.

The flat is completely renovated to a high, modern standard throughout. The lounge-diner offers a choice between grabbing a quick snack at the kitchen or sitting down at the dining table to enjoy a meal with company, or a movie on the wall-mounted HDTV. The sleek kitchen is fully loaded with modern appliances such as a microwave, oven and hob, fridge, freezer, washer-dryer and dishwasher. The crisp clean bathroom is equally well-equipped with a power shower. There is also a separate shower room, and two separate toilets just to speed up the process of getting ready in the mornings.
