About This Listing
This is an open plan studio apartment on the first floor of an apartment block in the Barbican Estate. At the very heart of the City of London, it is well laid out and comfortable for 2 people. There is a Queen size bed and plenty of hanging and storage space. It benefits from floor-to-ceiling windows along the entire side of the property with access to a private balcony running alongside the same length.
The flat has everything you want including a well equipped kitchen should you decide to eat in and a newly refurbished bathroom with a shower and a bath. It is very well located: Barbican underground station is across the street less than 30 seconds walk from the apartment. Many of London's greatest attractions are a very short tube/bus/taxi ride away including the shopping district of Oxford St, Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament, as well as the brand new Olympic Park home to eight venues - including the iconic Olympic Stadium, Aquatics Centre and Velodrome - during this summer's London 2012 Olympic Games.
The Barbican Estate is a unique 35-acre site in the very heart of London consisting of residential apartments grouped around lakes and green squares within the complex and is listed Grade II by the UK Government as a Building of Special Architectural or Historic Interest. The Barbican Estate also contains the Barbican Centre - the largest performing arts centre in Europe hosting classical and contemporary music concerts, theatre performances, film screenings and art exhibitions. The London Symphony Orchestra and the BBC Symphony Orchestra are based in the Barbican Centre's concert hall. It also houses a library, three restaurants, a gym, a conservatory, and the Museum of London with the famous St Paul's Cathedral a short walk away also. A podium level links all the facilities in the Barbican, providing a pedestrian route above street level.
CAR PARK & ZIPCAR
The apartment benefits from an underground car park, with direct access from the lift. The first 5hrs of parking each day are free, with a charge of £9 for each 24 hour period. For Zipcar members, you can enjoy the convenience of a number vehicles located in the car park, including an Audi A3, BMW 3 Series, and a Volkswagen Transporter.
