PLEASE QUOTE MR0560 – Wonderful three bedroom split level Victorian conversion flat (1,052 Sq.Ft) with charming courtyard garden to the rear, shared freehold of the building, and no onward chain, enviably situated in the heart of vibrant Clerkenwell, just a short walk from transport links and amenities.  Beautifully appointed throughout and boasting a wealth of period appeal and character, the property provides bright and spacious accommodation spanning in excess of 1,000sq.ft, arranged over the raised and lower ground floors of an impressive terraced building.  Features include an inviting reception room, separate well equipped eat-in kitchen/diner, family bathroom, gas central heating, large sash windows, high ceilings, and attractive stripped wood flooring. Accommodation comprises entrance leading into the gorgeous front aspect reception room with feature bay, original style fireplace and ample space for relaxing and entertaining.   The separate kitchen is an excellent size, with quiet rear aspect over the garden and comprising a range of matching wall and base units with work surfaces incorporating inset sink unit, and further space for appliances.  A rear lobby provides direct access down to the courtyard garden.  To the lower floor, there are two well sized bedrooms, plus a versatile third bedroom/office and a family bathroom with white three piece suite.   Set in prime central London, Farringdon Road has a Public Transport Accessibility Level (PTAL) rating of 6a – the highest category of access (PTAL runs 1-6). The connectivity here is among the best in the UK with access to Farringdon, the hub for the Elizabeth Line, and to all of London’s airports with ease. It is within walking distance to London’s key rail hubs, King’s Cross, St Pancras (for Eurostar) and Euston, as well as mainline stations including Blackfriars and Farringdon, and to all areas including Bankside, the South Bank, Soho, Bloomsbury and Covent Garden. Islington is within minutes of the property, and there is plenty of interest in Clerkenwell, the local area, named the best place to live in London by the Sunday Times in 2024.   FOR REF SEE Clerkenwell itself is at the centre of the capital's culinary and creative scenes, with cosy pubs, cool cafes, lively bars and some of the city's best restaurants.  Exmouth Market, which has a wonderful lunchtime food market, is also on the doorstep, and the area is well served by a fashionable variety of boutique shops, eateries and pubs.  It truly is the ideal location for immersion into the vibrancy and history of Central London.   The house has a fascinating history that is linked to the construction of the Metropolitan Railway in 1860–8 — the first underground train line in the world. This massive infrastructure project demolished earlier buildings and left space for development, and the brick-built terrace in which this property sits was built in 1874–5 by Walter William Wheeler, a well-known builder from Notting Hill, as a mix of houses and shops. He used a bay-fronted style with triple-aspect windows and high ceilings, maximising the light within the house. At this, the central house, he gave the parapet a decorative element as if to emphasise its centrality. The black railings are also of great historical interest.   The terrace in which the house sits originally comprised 114–152 Farringdon Road, but 142–152 were damaged in WWII and demolished. The rest have survived well. The terrace is now in a fantastic position in a revived Clerkenwell, and is such an integral part of the Rosebery Avenue Conservation Area that a photograph of it appears on the local authority literature. Close to the phenomenally successful Exmouth Market, it sits opposite the Mount Pleasant development, which is already inhabited and also breathing new life into the area.  Viewings are highly recommended.
