About this listing

Situated within Bartholomew Close, a historic cobbled courtyard moments from Smithfield Market and St Bartholomew's Hospital, this well-presented one-bedroom second-floor apartment offers a bright and versatile home in one of the City of London's most characterful locations. The accommodation comprises a living/dining room with adjoining kitchen fitted with integrated Neff and Siemens appliances, generous bedroom, and a bathroom. The apartment further benefits from oak flooring throughout, a day concierge service and two recently replaced lifts. Nestled beside St Bartholomew the Great, one of London's oldest surviving churches, Bartholomew Close takes its name from the Priory of St Bartholomew, founded in 1123, and has evolved over the centuries from a medieval religious precinct into an atmospheric enclave of period character and modern City living. Cloth Fair, the Barbican Estate and the wider Smithfield area are within easy reach. The surrounding streets are home to one of the City's most vibrant food scenes. Ibai, the acclaimed Basque grill on Bartholomew Close itself, serves fire-cooked steaks and pintxos from an open kitchen, while St. John Smithfield, the Michelin-starred restaurant credited with pioneering nose-to-tail British cooking, remains a celebrated local institution. Nearby, Cloth occupies a Grade II-listed building on historic Cloth Fair, and Restaurant St Barts offers fine dining with views towards St Bartholomew the Great. For a more relaxed setting, The Hope on Cowcross Street is a handsome Grade II-listed pub dating from the 19th century, while The Butcher's Hook & Cleaver and Balfour are popular destinations for after-work drinks and traditional pub fare. Coffee lovers are equally well served, with Dose Espresso on Long Lane established as a local favourite for speciality coffee, alongside Details and the ever-popular Beppe's Café, renowned for its classic City breakfast.
