Our favourite feature is the terrific west facing terrace, large and with a fantastic aspect over the residents garden and towards Bunhill Fields beyond. We have come to highly respect JAR, the managing agents, for the responsiveness and effectiveness in managing the development. A good managing agent is priceless in our view and an experienced leasehold owner will appreciate this"
