About this property

Brilliant Barbican, by Veeve

Offering slick city living in the heart of Barbican, this contemporary gem is the perfect base in which to explore eclectic east London. Sleeping up to three guests, it’s only a short hop from vibrant Shoreditch, famed for its chic cocktail bars, vintage boutiques and inspired food scene. On a tight schedule and keen to cover off London’s most iconic landmarks? Minutes from Liverpool Street Underground and National station, convenient transport links to the city centre add even further allure to this effervescent home. Barbican and Moorgate Underground stations are also close at hand...

An exuberant dose of deep lilac emboldens the open-plan living area with a vibrant energy. Ebullient in its colour scheme, the furnishings and artwork usher in an element of contrast against the clean lines of the ceilings and walls. Chandelier lighting adds to the air of contemporary cool, while an additional single sleeping space is provided in the form of a pull-down Murphy bed.

A medley of monochrome greets you in the modern kitchen; another example of how the recent renovations of this home have combined to deliver an impressive showcase in contemporary living. Here, guests can truly enjoy the benefit of a thoroughly modernised property.

With its notes of yin and yang, and mellow lighting, the master suite is instantly restful and offers a plush king-sized bed, bedside tables and generous wardrobe. As masterfully monochromatic as the rest of the apartment, the bathroom offers a combined bath and shower. Here, you can freshen up before an eventful morning exploring the iconic Brutalist architecture of the Barbican, home to a thriving and experimental arts scene. Classical architecture more to your taste? Stroll a little further to take in the Baroque beauty of St Paul’s Cathedral with its totemic dome a timeless feature of the London skyline for over 300 years.

We Love
The location with a little bit of everything to suit all tastes just steps from the front door.

Home Truths:
No smoking, pets or parties. Air conditioning is available throughout this property. This apartment is located on the third floor and can be accessed by a lift. Please note, work is currently taking place to improve the external facade of the building. While scaffolding may remain in place for some time, it is not anticipated that any aspect of the work will affect (if at all) this particular flat and the availability of the flat for rental reflects this. Although we always endeavour for accuracy, there may be rare occasions where the listing photography and description do not provide an exact representation of the home’s amenities.

Excellent location for stay in London
My daughter and I stayed in this flat for the second time this summer. It is very comfortable (with air conditioning if needed) and the location is convenient to Liverpool Station and Moorgate.

A lot of love in this house
We enjoyed our stay. The only issue we had was the washer/drier...couldn't get it to work properly and just don't think it was explained properly at check in. Additional toilet paper in the apartment would also be nice.

Everything was wondeful!
Everything was wonderful. We loved the apartment and it was clean, spacious, and well equipped. Safe environment and in the middle of great cultural centers like the Barbican center. We will definitely come back here again! The host who met us was right on time, was friendly and polite, and showed us all we needed to know. Great experience!

A home away from home. We believe it can be something really special. We know that finding the perfect base from which to go out and explore - or stay in and recharge - can make a great vacation unforgettable. At Veeve, we've been committed to hand-selecting the very best homes in London and Paris since 2011. Our mission? To provide our guests with the ideal space to suit their needs; be it a family home in Kensington, a chic penthouse in Shoreditch, or a quirky loft in the Marais...
Our homes may vary in size, style and location, but the experience we offer - seamless and curated - always stays the same. Whichever home you choose, our team of experts are bursting with insider knowledge on the local area. We love to make recommendations, so why not give us a call?

Why they chose this property

The beating financial heart of the city, the 1.12 square miles which makes up ‘The City of London’ is full of plush restaurants and bars for the City types who work in the area to play in after the working day is done. If you’re after something a little more soul-cleansing, visit the spectacular St Paul’s Cathedral — an iconic part of the London skyline since 1675 — or the Monument, a fascinating and imposing commemoration of the 1666 Great Fire of London. The brutalist masterpiece that houses the Barbican Centre is also located in the “Square Mile”, hosting lectures, plays, film-screenings and art shows throughout the year.

What makes this property unique
