Set on the third floor of Guilford Court and accessed via stairs, the apartment is arranged around a central entrance hall, providing separation between the principal rooms. The accommodation comprises two double bedrooms, a reception/dining room, separate fitted kitchen and family bathroom, making efficient use of the available floor area.
The principal bedroom is particularly generous at approximately 14'5" x 10'0", with a wall of mirrored fitted wardrobes and extensive built-in shelving providing excellent storage and ample space for freestanding furnishings. A broad glazed door and Juliette window brings in plenty of natural light and enhancing the sense of space.
The second bedroom, measuring approximately 11'2" x 10'8", is another well-proportioned double, with a wide window spanning much of the external wall. There is ample room for a double bed, desk and additional furniture, making it equally suitable as a bedroom, or study.
The reception room provides defined areas for both sitting and dining, with extensive fitted shelving and wood flooring continuing through much of the apartment. Adjoining the reception is a separate fitted kitchen with blue wall and base units, timber work surfaces, tiled splashbacks, gas hob, oven, stainless-steel sink and washing machine. A large window above the worktop provides good natural light and ventilation.
The bathroom is separately accessed from the hallway and includes a full-size bath, wash basin and WC, while further built-in cupboards off the hall provide useful additional storage.
The apartment is offered with a share of freehold and forms part of a well-managed residential block. Its efficient two-bedroom configuration and prime WC1 position also give the property strong investment credentials, with potential for conventional long-term letting or a lucrative short-term accommodation model. Its proximity to universities, teaching hospitals, the City and West End provides access to a broad rental market and the potential for attractive rental returns.
Guilford Court is positioned towards the upper end of Guilford Street, moments from Southampton Row and superbly placed for the many attractions and amenities of Bloomsbury and WC1. The location is particularly convenient for the area's numerous academic institutions, as well as professionals requiring straightforward access to the City, West End and wider central London.
The nearby Grade II listed Brunswick Centre provides an excellent range of shops, cafés and everyday amenities, including one of central London's largest Waitrose stores. Russell Square and Holborn Underground stations are both within easy walking distance, while King's Cross St Pancras and Euston provide extensive national and international transport connections. Covent Garden, Clerkenwell, Exmouth Market and the West End are also readily accessible on foot.
Combining a practical two-bedroom layout, share of freehold, strong rental potential and an excellent Bloomsbury location, the property should appeal equally to owner-occupiers, those seeking a central London pied-à-terre, and investors.
