Summary - Ben Jonson House, EC2Y 8NH EC2Y 8NH
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Spacious dual-aspect Barbican apartment with large terrace and long lease, chain free.
Dual-aspect, multi-level apartment with abundant natural light
This bright dual-aspect apartment in Ben Jonson House occupies the 5th, 6th and 7th floors, offering generous space (approx. 1,023 sq ft) across a striking multi-storey layout. Large windows, a south-facing reception and a substantial terrace off the main bedroom create light-filled rooms and flexible living, ideal for anyone who wants an apartment with character and outdoor space in the Barbican.
The kitchen has been refurbished and includes a dining area; the apartment benefits from underfloor heating (included in the service charge), lift access and use of the residents’ gardens. Practical city-living features include 24-hour car park attendants who can accept deliveries and hold keys, with car parking and bike storage available separately through the City of London.
Buyers should note a few material points: the bathroom remains original and may need updating to match the refurbished kitchen; the property is leasehold with a long lease (to 2196) and a relatively high estimated service charge (£7,861 pa). Car parking is not included and is negotiated separately. Council tax is described as expensive.
Overall, this home will suit buyers who prioritise central location, natural light and outdoor space within a well-resourced cultural quarter. It is chain-free and ready to move into, with straightforward potential to modernise the bathroom and personalise finishes while taking advantage of excellent transport links and nearby amenities.
