Summary - High Holborn, WC1V WC1V 6DR
2 bed 2 bath Apartment
Prime Chancery Lane location with period entrance and excellent transport links.
886 sq ft two-bedroom, two-bath apartment with day porter and lift access
This bright two-bedroom, two-bath apartment occupies 886 sq ft in a well-regarded High Holborn block with a day porter and lift access. Converted in the late 1990s from a 1950s build, the residence sits to the rear of the building and offers a large reception room with space for dining and an open-plan kitchen — flexible accommodation suited to lettings or professional sharers.
Practical strengths include a long lease (circa 220 years), double glazing (install date unknown), fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, and immediate access to Central Line at Chancery Lane plus short walks to Farringdon and the West End. The ornate communal entrance and galleried staircase add period character that underpins continued desirability in this address.
Notable considerations are factual: the property is leasehold, ground rent is £600 pa, council tax levels are described as quite expensive, and the main heating is electric room heaters which may raise running costs compared with gas. The local crime rate is very high and the wider area is a multicultural student neighbourhood — factors investors should weigh when estimating yields and tenant demand.
Overall this apartment suits investors or professionals seeking central London location, strong transport links and attractive communal character. It requires standard ongoing maintenance rather than major works, but purchasers should budget for higher service and running costs in this central location and consider the local crime profile when planning tenancy and security measures.
