About this property

Charming duplex on the Bourne Estate — 1 bed, 573 sq ft, communal gardens. Steps from Chancery Lane & Farringdon, moments from Clerkenwell and the West End.

Tucked within the handsome red-brick facades of the Bourne Estate, this characterful duplex apartment offers a rare chance to put down roots in one of London's most storied corners. Set on the upper floors, it enjoys a wonderful sense of calm and privacy, well removed from the bustle of the street below, and a front door that makes coming home feel like arriving somewhere truly your own.
