This 588 sq ft one-bedroom apartment on the 4th floor combines historic character with contemporary living. High ceilings, hardwood floors and large windows create a bright, comfortable open-plan living space suited to everyday city life.
Residents benefit from 24-hour concierge service and access to landscaped communal gardens, with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband for working from home. The location offers a short walk to the Financial District, multiple Underground and DLR links, and Liverpool Street/Elizabeth Line connections.
Important practical points are stated plainly: the building is Grade II listed, which restricts alterations and can complicate works and permissions. The flat is leasehold (approximately 129–131 years remaining) with a ground rent of £300 and above-average council tax — factor these running costs into any purchase decision.
This chain-free apartment is a strong option for a first-time buyer seeking a characterful, well-connected home near central London employers and amenities. It will particularly suit buyers who value location and immediate move-in readiness but understand the maintenance and regulatory considerations that come with listed buildings.
