Britton Street, Clerkenwell, London, EC1M

An exceptionally large one-bedroom apartment with private balcony in a prime Clerkenwell location. Forming part of this handsome and elegant red brick late Victorian building, constructed in 1901 - 1905 by the architect Robert W Hobden as warehousing and factory buildings, the building underwent a full refurbishment programme in 2003 – 2005 by Persimmon homes now housing some of the most sought-after apartments in Clerkenwell. Quietly located to the rear of the building the accommodation comprises double bedroom, bathroom, triple aspect reception room with study area and open plan kitchen. Britton Street runs parallel to Turnmill Street and St John’s Lane with access to excellent transport links from Farringdon underground and main line station with 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 connections to Kings Cross - St Pancras with its Eurostar terminus. The London Museum’s relocation to the Southern end of the abandoned Smithfield Market is underway, receiving £180m by the City and London Mayor and is planned to open in 2026 creating new gallery space as well as options for larger events and exhibitions. With great shopping and tremendous diversity of acclaimed restaurants, bars, galleries and wine bars Clerkenwell remains one of London’s best kept secrets.
