A third bedroom is located to the rear of the building on this floor with French doors opening to the two-tier garden.

On the lower level is the kitchen and dining area with a second access point to rear courtyard. A shower room and utility room are located on this floor and a versatile room as a fourth bedroom/study.

The upper level has vast hallway with a sash window perfectly framing the view over the Square. Two bedrooms both with fitted storage in alcoves and a family bathroom which has a sky light.

Location

Lloyd Square is the central area of the renowned Lloyd Baker estate situated in Clerkenwell, Islington, south of the Angel. The square has a beautiful and well kept private garden and is closed off from through traffic.

The area is remarkable for its transport connections. St Pancras International has the Eurostar link to continental Europe, and, with King’s Cross, has main line connections to the north. The redeveloped Farringdon Station has the new Elizabeth Line with fast link to Heathrow airport and Thames Link to Gatwick and Luton. The square is less than 1.5 miles from St Paul’s Cathedral and the City of London.

The King’s Cross area, nicknamed the “Knowledge Quarter”, is less than a mile away and includes the British Library, the Crick Institute, the Alan Turing Institute and some of the world’s most innovative companies including Google, with a new HQ due to be finished in 2024.
