Compact, refreshed pied-à-terre minutes from Monument Station.
Second-floor one-bedroom in secure purpose-built block
A compact one-bedroom apartment on the second floor of a secure, purpose-built block in the heart of the City. The flat has recently been redecorated with new carpets and benefits from double glazing, a fitted kitchen and integrated storage — ready to move into as a pied-à-terre or rental. Lift access, an entry phone system and concierge add convenience and tenant appeal for busy city workers.
Positioned moments from Monument Station with Cannon Street, Bank and Tower Hill within easy walking distance, the location offers exceptional transport links plus nearby shops, cafés and restaurants. The efficient layout and City skyline outlook make this a practical choice for someone seeking central living or a buy-to-let targeting professionals.
Buyers should note the property is leasehold with a long lease and offered chain-free. The internal living space is small-to-average at about 481 sq ft and there is no private outdoor space. Heating is via electric storage heaters — running costs can be higher than gas-heated properties — and the local area records very high crime levels, which may affect some purchasers’ preferences or insurance costs.
Overall this apartment presents an accessible, low-maintenance central-City option for a first-time buyer, city worker wanting a pied-à-terre, or investor seeking straightforward rental potential. It is recently refreshed but not a large family home; suitability depends on prioritising location and convenience over space and outdoor amenity.
