- Large windows and very high ceilings provide strong natural light
- Concierge service; chain-free sale for quicker completion

A bright, split-level mezzanine flat in a handsome neoclassical building on picturesque Britton Street, moments from Farringdon station. The open-plan reception benefits from very high ceilings and large windows that bring daylight into the compact living space, while a mezzanine double bedroom creates a distinct sleep area without losing the loft-style feel.
The building offers concierge service and the apartment is offered chain-free, making it straightforward to buy. Its central Clerkenwell location puts restaurants, shops and excellent transport links on the doorstep — ideal for a professional who wants a low-commute London base or an investor targeting strong rental demand.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold flat with community heating, secondary glazing and solid brick walls likely without added insulation. The overall size is average (approximately 465 sq ft) and the split-level layout reduces usable floor area compared with a single-level one-bedroom. Crime levels in the immediate area are reported as very high, which may affect perceptions for some purchasers.
Energy performance is reasonable (EPC C). The property suits someone seeking a characterful, central pied-à-terre or a rental asset with good access to Farringdon, rather than a family home requiring larger rooms or outdoor space. Some updating and insulation work could add comfort and long-term value.
