Gothic architecture at its finest.

This smart, extremely large apartment is quietly located to the rear of the building and comprises a large reception room, separate kitchen, principal bedroom with ample built in wardrobes and with ensuite bathroom and further guest shower room.

This grand building is a fine example of Victorian, Venetian Gothic architecture, whose design was very much in vogue in London during the mid to late 1800s. Now Grade II listed, it is located on the corner of Farringdon Road and Greville Street and benefits from a day porter.

Designed by the Architects Arding and Bond (1873–1875), the building was occupied by Bradbury, Wilkinson & Co who were renowned engravers, printers of bank notes, postage stamps and share certificates.

The building was re-modelled behind its original façade circa 1990 by gml Architects, marking the first foray into the central London market for Berkeley Homes, who worked closely with the conservation officers at the time restoring the external brick and stonework.

Farringdon underground and main line stations are a short stroll away with access to the Circle, Metropolitan and Hammersmith and City lines, National rail and the recently opened Elizabeth Line. In fact, it is one of the only stations in London that offers north-south as well as east – west connections, making the city, Canary Wharf and London's west end easily accessible, not to mention easy access to Kings Cross St Pancras with its Eurostar terminus.

With Clerkenwell voted by The Sunday Times as the best place to live in London, it offers the very best and most diverse cuisine, with fine dining options to eclectic street food markets. It is home to the largest concentration of Architectural practices globally and has one of the fastest growing creative networks in London.

Clerkenwell first became a fashionable place to live in the 17th century as a destination where Londoners enjoyed tea gardens, theatres and spas: In fact, you can still see part of Clerks’ Well after which Clerkenwell was originally named. The area later became famous as a centre for clock and watchmaking alongside the jewellers and goldsmiths of Hatton Garden. It remains one of the best-preserved village centres in central London – a vibrant modern community with a fascinatingly rich history.

With great shopping on Leather Lane, Hatton Garden and Cowcross Street and tremendous diversity of acclaimed galleries and wine bars it remains one of London’s best kept secrets.
