About this property

A bright and airy dual-aspect flat situated on the top floor of Stanley Cohen House, with two double bedrooms and a west-facing view over the Golden Lane Estate. This property is offered with a long lease and is being sold chain free by the current owner.

A predecessor to the famous Barbican Estate, the Golden Lane Estate has also been Grade II listed since 1997 due to its architectural significance. It was designed in the 1950's by the renowned architects Chamberlain, Powell and Bon and remains one of the most iconic developments of its date in London. Stanley Cohen House was completed in 1957.
