Set in a red-brick period mansion block just off Fleet Street, this studio offers compact central-London living or a straightforward rental opportunity. The apartment is chain-free with a recently extended 999-year lease, making ownership uncomplicated. Transport links are excellent with Chancery Lane, City Thameslink and Blackfriars stations within easy reach.
Internally the layout is efficient: a single open-plan living/sleeping room with a fitted wallbed, separate compact kitchenette and a bathroom. The building is served by a communal heating scheme and there is no private garden — the accommodation suits a single occupant, pied-à-terre or buy-to-let investor seeking city-centre convenience.
Buyers should note the flat is small (approx. 307 sq ft) and dated in places; modernisation would improve comfort and rental appeal. The annual service charge is £3,862 and the area records very high crime levels, which may affect some purchasers’ preferences. Council tax is affordable and there is no flood risk.
Overall, this is a practical, low-management city studio with long lease security and strong central location — best for someone wanting proximity to legal and financial hubs or an investor targeting short/long-let demand after light refurbishment.
