Leigh Street Bloomsbury, WC1H

Situated in the very heart of Bloomsbury, this light and bright two-bedroom apartment offers a blend of period character and contemporary comfort. Set within an attractive Georgian conversion, the property provides an inviting living space with generous proportions and abundant natural light.

Accessed via its own front door, you enter a well-appointed reception room, which offers a welcoming atmosphere with the large original window emitting a wealth of natural light and providing a bright and airy feel.

The separate contemporary kitchen finished in a stylish monochrome palette has been thoughtfully designed to maximise space and include a surprising amount of storage. Black gloss soft-close cabinetry contains integrated appliances and is topped with wooden work surfaces.

The master bedroom is a peaceful retreat, comfortably sized with plenty of space for freestanding furnishings and the rare luxury of a walk-in wardrobe. Double doors lead out to the rear private garden, a particularly distinctive feature of this home. Designed by an RHS garden design graduate to be both low-maintenance and visually striking, and now fully mature, it contains a loquat tree bearing edible fruit alongside oleander and banana trees, creating a lush and tranquil outdoor space. The decking was replaced in 2023, and the garden stairs are brand new, ensuring an immaculate setting for relaxation or alfresco dining.

The second bedroom is a small double, and makes for a fantastic guest room, or home office.

A sleek, well-maintained, fully tiled bathroom completes the interior, containing a 3-piece suite with rainfall shower over bath and mirrored vanity cabinet.

The flat presents in excellent condition throughout and has been lovingly cared for by the present owners, with regular maintenance and cosmetic refurbishment undertaken throughout their tenure. Recent improvements include the Installation of a new Worcester Bosch combi boiler (still under warranty), CCTV cameras, re-decorated external parts (balance cleared), and a new damp-proof course.

Located moments from the major transport hubs of Euston, King’s Cross and St Pancras International train stations, the apartment benefits from unrivalled public transport accessibility. Located just a short walk from the green spaces of Russell Square and Coram Fields, as are the cultural offerings of the British Museum and British library.

The vibrant local area offers a wealth of amenities, including cafés, restaurants and independent boutiques. The Brunswick Centre is less than 5-minutes’ walk away and hosts major retail restaurant brands, as well as Waitrose supermarket.
 
With its combination of excellent location, well-planned interiors, a cleverly designed garden, low service charges, peppercorn ground rent, and chain free status, this property presents an exceptional opportunity for both owner-occupiers and investors alike. It is ideal for use a pied-à-terre and well-located for access to leading academic institutions, including the University of London, SOAS, the LSE and UCL.
