| Description |
Location, location, location! John Trundle Court, Barbican, London EC2. Unique west-facing corner flat with access to two balconies located on the fifth floor, with probably the best views from any studio on the Grade II listed Barbican estate. Featuring original Barbican fittings, this easily-managed studio apartment is ideally located in the City of London above Aldersgate Street and within walking distance of Bank, Blackfriars, Chancery Lane, Cheapside, Clerkenwell, Fleet Street, Holborn, Liverpool Street, Moorgate, St Paul’s and Smithfield. The attractive pedestrian podium below, tastefully planted and with water features, is linked by footbridge to Barbican station. All London airports are within easy reach and from November 2007 St Pancras International is two stops away by tube. Access to 24-hour car park and private residents’ gardens.
* Overview
This is a compact City apartment with a fascinating outlook from windows and balconies. To the west there are views of the trees of Charterhouse Square, the turrets of Smithfield Market, St Bartholomew the Great church tower, the Old Bailey, the wedding-cake spire of St Bride’s Church Fleet Street and in the in the distance the London Eye. From the second, north-facing, balcony there are views of the graceful curve of Golden Lane arcade, and to the east a view of the Barbican wilderness garden, where occasionally a fox may be glimpsed. Below, the vibrant life of the City provides endless interest, whilst a pedestrian podium, with well-tended gardens, a fish pool, fountain and secluded benches, provides a refreshing haven from the City bustle. The flat is flooded with afternoon sunshine and in the evening the setting sun often provides a spectacular view from the floor-to-ceiling windows.
* The Apartment
The well maintained easily-managed fifth floor flat with lift access comprises an open-plan studio room leading into a fully fitted kitchen, which is linked through a short passage to a separate bathroom. Fitted wardrobes, a hotpress and a utility cupboard are included. The kitchen and bathroom feature mostly original Barbican fittings. Underfloor electric heating is included in the service charge.
* Barbican Amenities
John Trundle Court benefits from a shared car park with car park attendant providing 24-hour security, lockable cycle store and package delivery facility. Adjacent gardens, with flowers, bushes, water features and secluded benches, provide a relaxing ambience. Residents have access to the facilities of the world-renowned Barbican estate, including the pedestrian podium with its year-round display of flowers and greenery, two private gated residents’ gardens, a gated wilderness garden, two lakes with wildfowl, and the Barbican Centre, with its libraries, art galleries, concert hall, theatre, cinemas, conservatory, restaurant, cafés, bars and waterside terrace. Crispins' shop, the Wood Street Bar & Restaurant, a neighbourhood police office, car park attendants, cleaners, gardeners and an estate office provide residents with focused local services. The Barbican estate has an active residents’ association, Barbican Life magazine, and several clubs and societies, which sustain a unique village-in-the-City character.
