A well‑appointed one‑bedroom fourth‑floor apartment in a modern development just off Holborn Viaduct. The flat benefits from oak wood flooring, polished granite worktops, a fully fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, and a contemporary bathroom. Practical extras include double glazing, a long lease (999 years from 2002), and 24‑hour porterage offering added security and convenience.
The location is the strongest selling point: central City address near St Paul’s, Farringdon and Liverpool Street stations, with easy access to shops, restaurants and cultural attractions. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal suit professionals who work from home or need constant connectivity. The property size (about 453 sq ft) is typical for inner‑city one‑bedroom apartments.
Buyers should note material running costs and local context. Service charge is £4,315 pa and ground rent £250 pa; council tax band E is above average. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than a central gas system, which may raise energy costs. The wider area records very high crime levels — worth factoring into personal security considerations despite the 24‑hour concierge.
This apartment will suit a single professional or investor seeking a central City pied‑à‑terre or rental asset with short walk access to major transport hubs. It offers immediate move‑in quality but limited space and above‑average communal costs, so buyers looking for lower bills or larger rooms should consider alternatives.
