Set on the second floor of an impressive early 20th‑century corner building, this dual‑aspect two‑bedroom flat offers bright living space with high ceilings and large industrial‑style windows. The open‑plan kitchen and reception suit modern living, while original period character remains evident in the building’s façade and spacious rooms.
The apartment is chain‑free and comes with a very long lease (960 years), making it straightforward for a first purchase. Farringdon Station and multiple Underground, national rail and Elizabeth Line services are moments away, giving exceptional connections across London and beyond.
Important practical points: the property sits in an area with higher crime and local deprivation statistics, and the building is of solid brick construction with assumed limited wall insulation — further internal refurbishment or insulation upgrades may be desirable. Annual outgoings include a service charge around £4,000 and ground rent of £100.
This flat will suit buyers seeking central Clerkenwell life and transport convenience, who value period character and generous ceiling heights, and who accept some communal maintenance costs and potential improvement works to personalise the home.
