Summary - BEN JONSON HOUSE FLAT 267 BARBICAN LONDON EC2Y 8DL
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Sunny balcony apartment ideal for central London living or investment.
Split-level one-bedroom over two floors, providing defined living and sleeping areas
Set within the iconic Barbican Estate, this split-level one-bedroom apartment offers city-centre living with thoughtful design and strong transport links. Large floor-to-ceiling glazing opens onto a south-facing balcony, flooding the main reception with daylight and framing urban views. The apartment’s wooden staircase and dual-aspect layout create a sense of space and separation between living and sleeping areas.
Practical benefits include underfloor heating (covered by the service charge), lift access, 24-hour porterage and access to residents’ gardens and cultural amenities on the estate. The long lease (extended to 2196) and chain-free sale simplify purchase options, while proximity to the Elizabeth Line, Liverpool Street and Farringdon makes commuting straightforward.
Considerations: the service charge is significant (estimated £5,865 pa) and council tax is above average, which will affect ongoing costs. Car parking and bike storage are managed separately by the City of London and are not included; these require separate negotiation. Overall, the apartment suits buyers seeking a low-hassle, central London pied-à-terre or an investment in a landmark complex with strong rental appeal.
