Set within a handsome Victorian mansion block on Rosebery Avenue, this raised ground-floor one-bedroom flat offers comfortable, well-presented living in the heart of Clerkenwell. At around 590 sq ft the apartment feels larger than many central-London one-beds, with a generous reception, a good-sized bedroom and period details such as a fireplace and high ceilings in the block.
Accommodation is presented in neutral decor, with a modern fitted kitchen and a smart bathroom ready for immediate occupation. The property benefits from excellent transport links — Farringdon station is close — and a wide range of local shops, cafés and parks within easy walking distance, making it well suited for a first-time buyer seeking a city-base with character.
Important practical points: the flat is leasehold and heated via a community mains-gas scheme; glazing is secondary and the building’s solid-brick walls appear to have no insulation. The surrounding area records higher crime and broader deprivation indicators, which may be a consideration for some buyers. There is no flooding risk.
This is a straightforward, well-presented central-London one-bedroom with period appeal and clear value for someone prioritising location and immediate move-in condition. Buyers should check lease details, service charges and communal heating arrangements, and consider potential improvements such as additional insulation or glazing upgrades over time.
