Property description

A spacious two double bedroom apartment on the first floor of a grade II listed red brick apartment block built in the Edwardian era as artisans dwellings. Each stairwell in the various blocks have their own secure entry-phone system for controlled access.

The apartment is situated on The Bourne Estate close to both Chancery Lane (Central Line) and Farringdon Stations (Circle and Metropolitan Line and Thameslink).

The apartment comprises a large reception room with under-floor heating, 2 double bedrooms, fitted kitchen and tiled bathroom with shower above the bath and separate WC. Real wood flooring throughout the property, high ceilings and sash windows. The property was renovated in a modern and neutral style and is in a good decorative state.

The Eurostar terminal at St Pancras/Kings Cross is close to the property - 15 minutes walk or can be accessed via Farringdon Station which will be the main beneficiary of London's current main transport project, i.E. Crossrail. The upgraded ThamesLink service is a direct link to both Luton and Gatwick airports and at Farringdon the new Crossrail line intersects with Thameslink giving the station a unique north - south and east - west transport connection to all London's main airports.

The apartment has excellent potential as it is within an area of high rental demand between the West End and the City close to Covent Garden, resulting in high yields and is in a golden stretch for capital growth as it lies between Kings Cross and Farringdon.

There is a long lease, reasonable service charges and a peppercorn ground rent.
