About this property

Cool 2-bed penthouse, with a 40 sqm terrace, stunning views on the city

Life in the City - your home away from home in Central London!

A cool top floor penthouse apartment offering 110 sqm of living space, including a 40 sqm decked terrace overlooking the financial city. You'll be in the heart of the city - the buzz (and delicious food) of the market street below by day, the quiet you need to rest by night.

The penthouse is a newly built conversion on top of what used to be a pub-house (turned into a cool and lively cafe) and is great both for business visitors to London (walking distance to the City, 2 stops from Kings Cross), as well as tourists (a 10 min walk to St. Paul's and from there take the tube to Oxford street or cross the river over to the Tate Modern for example).

The 40 sqm decked terrace of the flat with expansive views on the City is what makes this place special and is a great end of day destination and a nice brunch/lunch spot any time of the week (London weather permitting).

The master bedroom has a king-size bed, the smaller bedroom has a reclining sofa, that can sleep two. The bathroom has a bathtub as well as a separate shower.

Fully equipped kitchen, including a blender (great for smoothies any time of day), juice press (to satisfy your thirst for fresh orange juice) and a Nespresso coffee machine to help you wake up in the morning. A large oven and stove as well as a microwave, for those who feel the need to cook at home, although there are a bunch of great places at your doorstep (Turkish, sushi, Vegan, Thai, Indian, Italian, Ramen noodles and more).

For groceries, Waitrose supermarket is just down the street.

Please note, the penthouse is situated on the top (3rd) floor of an old pub house conversion. As such, there is no lift in the building, not recommended for guests who may have mobility problems. The flip side of the walk up the stairs are the sweeping views of the city from the large outdoor space of the terrace.

Walking distance to St. Paul's cathedral, Tate Modern, Tower bridge, etc. Close to 3 metro stops/5 metro lines: Barbican, Old Street and St. Paul's.

Open market on Whitecross is fun and delicious!

Who loves it: business travellers; solo travellers; families with kids; couples or friends visiting London for the weekend;

At your doorstep: the Barbican; Guildhall school of music; Smithfields; Shoreditch; Kingscross St Pancrass; Sandlers Wells; Bank of England;

Home away from home
My teen daughters stayed a week at Milena’s property. It is really like your own home. Once you get over walking up the 3 flights of stairs you enter the apartment to view the amazing terrace where we spent many hours enjoying the view and warm weather. Even though location of keys is interesting , milenas very detailed communication makes it easy. Your nearest underground is either Barbican or old Street which are about an 8 minute walk. Apartment is spacious with 2nd bedroom suitable for 1 person. Would definitely recommend staying.

Hey, I’m Milena! Living between London (UK) and Sofia (BG) after a wild ride in the previous 20 years, having lived in 7 countries, including the US, Poland, France, Austria, Russia and Kazakhstan in addition to the UK and BG. Love travelling, discovering new places and meeting new (and by all means good!) people.. Love skiing, golf, sunshine and the beach. Love reading, yoga and staying fit. I am a vegan, hence for the health conscious, you'll find a few basic, but useful tools in my place. To those who stay at my place, may you feel the welcome home away from home!
