"Set within the iconic Golden Lane Estate, this rare, large style studio apartment in Grade II* listed Crescent House is a beautifully preserved example of mid century modernism. Quietly tucked away from the road and benefitting from a south westerly aspect, the apartment is exceptionally bright, with full height, full width windows that flood the space with natural light and evening sun.

The main studio room is generously proportioned, allowing for a versatile layout that easily accommodates living, dining and sleeping zones. A separate kitchen and modern style bathroom are both well maintained.

Crescent House is the architectural centrepiece of the Golden Lane Estate, designed in the 1950s by Chamberlin, Powell & Bon the visionary trio behind the neighbouring Barbican. Inspired by the principles of Le Corbusier, the estate was conceived as a post war utopian community, free from traffic, and thoughtfully arranged around planted walkways and gardens.

Residents enjoy access to the Golden Lane Leisure Centre with tennis courts, squash courts and a brand new swimming pool. The area is moments from Barbican, Old Street and Farringdon stations with the Elizabeth Line, Thameslink and several Underground lines all within easy reach.

With its strong sense of community, outstanding architecture, and vibrant surrounding neighbourhoods including Clerkenwell and Smithfield, this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of London s modernist legacy.

All residents on the estate enjoy the use of a swimming pool, as well as tennis and badminton courts, at preferential rates. There is a Waitrose supermarket close by, and the Barbican Arts Centre is also within walking distance. This area has a particularly good selection of restaurants, pubs and bars, and Smithfield Market is nearby. There are two Underground stations within very close proximity Barbican Elizabeth, Circle, Hammersmith & City and Metropolitan Lines and Old Street Northern Line . Farringdon Underground Circle, Hammersmith & City and Metropolitan Lines and British Rail station is also within walking distance."
