One of the most recognised buildings in Clerkenwell, and Grade II Listed, this dignified Victorian school was sympathetically converted into luxury apartments in 1999, paying attention to the building's character and features. The building impressively retains a sense of grandiosity with elegant turrets, terrazzo tiled communal hallways, impeccable Victorian glazed tiling, tall windows, well-tended communal gardens and a day porter.

Quietly placed in the Clerkenwell Green conservation area between the green open spaces of Spa Fields and St James’s Gardens, its location is admirable with Farringdon Station (Mainline, Thameslink, Underground and Crossrail) a short walk away, giving quick and easy access to the City’s financial district or London’s West End. Kings Cross/ St Pancras with its Eurostar links, excellent national services and six Underground lines, is within walking distance.

The apartment is also a short stroll to Exmouth Market which has a wonderful selection of independent shops, restaurants and bars as well as one of the best street food markets in London. Clerkenwell remains London’s Avant Garde design district with Internationally recognised furniture and architectural practises, media agencies, tech start-ups as well as globally recognised brands such as Linked-in, Google, Bloomberg, Deloitte and Goldman Sachs, all which have headquarters close by.

The 'House of Detention’ in the underground vaults of Kingsway Place usually hosts part of the annual Clerkenwell Design Festival.
