Property description
At 1,093 sq ft this is a substantial apartment by any standard and a remarkable one for the City.
THE APARTMENT
What makes it work is the plan. The two bedrooms sit at opposite ends of the flat, separated by the hall, the bathroom and the kitchen, giving a degree of separation that apartments of this size rarely manage.
The principal bedroom runs to 18'6" by 14'4", larger than the reception room itself, with an original fireplace. The second bedroom is a genuine double at 14'1" by 11'5", well suited to a study for anyone who only needs one.
The reception room is dual aspect at 18'9" by 13'5", and the kitchen is a proper separate room of 14'0" by 9'8" rather than the open plan arrangement that dominates new build stock. Three fitted wardrobes and a linen cupboard answer the storage question that period buildings usually leave hanging. Newly refurbished throughout, with a new kitchen and integrated appliances, a new bathroom and new blinds.
Top floor, with nothing above it. Approximate gross internal area 1,093 sq ft, measured in accordance with RICS guidelines.
THE ESTATE
The Charterhouse began as a Carthusian priory in 1348, became a Tudor mansion, and has stood as an almshouse since 1611. It remains a working community today, with its own chapel and museum, set behind gates on one of the City’s last great private squares. Residents hold fob access to Charterhouse Square gardens, Pensioners Court and the Master’s Garden, and a new access control system has recently been fitted to the building’s stair doors.
LOCATION
Farringdon, with the Elizabeth line, Thameslink and three Underground lines, is a short walk, as are Barbican, Smithfield and the restaurants of Clerkenwell.
