Approximately 1,100 sq ft — generous size for a city‑centre two‑bed flat
Secure building with lift access, concierge, two roof gardens and 24hr residents’ gym
High ceilings, bespoke shutters, hardwood floors and designer curved wall feature
Kitchen fitted with Siemens appliances; spiral staircase to galleried bedrooms
No private garden; outside space appears communal only
Tenure unknown and potential listed/conservation restrictions — check mortgageability
Local area described as very deprived and student‑dominated — amenity mix varies
Set over two levels in a striking neoclassical former civic building, this duplex apartment offers dramatic double‑height living and near full‑height sash windows that flood the space with natural light. The open plan ground floor with bespoke shutters, curved designer wall and a compact high‑spec Siemens kitchen creates an impressive urban home for those seeking character and contemporary finishes. Two bedrooms on the galleried upper level share a Jack‑and‑Jill bathroom; a spiral staircase links the floors and adds architectural interest.
Residents benefit from a secure entrance with lift access, concierge service, two roof gardens and a 24‑hour gym — rare convenience in a city‑centre setting. At about 1,100 sq ft the apartment is large for a central flat, with high ceilings and original period features that help it stand out in Merchant City.
Buyers should note a few material points: tenure is unknown and may affect mortgageability; the building may have listed or conservation considerations that limit alterations. There is no private garden and outside space appears communal only. The surrounding area is described as very deprived and predominantly student/commuter‑focused, which affects amenity mix and long‑term rental demand. Communal condition and any service charges are not provided and should be checked before offer.
This property will suit someone after an individual city pad with strong character and excellent transport links — ideal as a stylish primary home or a central buy‑to‑let with potential for strong city‑centre demand, subject to checks on tenure, communal upkeep and any listing constraints.
