Description
The current owners have lovingly upgraded the apartment using The Thomson Brothers who respect the Brutalist architecture of the Barbican estate, with the addition of a kitchen, two bathrooms and some exquisite cabinetry throughout.
The versatile accommodation comprises a triple aspect reception room with a dining area and separate kitchen and utility space. There are three generous double bedrooms, two bathrooms and a further room currently being used as a home office, but which could easily be used as a fourth bedroom. All principal rooms have access to a side balcony with the living room leading onto a large triangular external area whilst there is ample storage throughout the apartment.
Designed by the renowned Architect practice Chamberlain, Powell and Bon the Barbican is in our opinion one of the very best examples of Brutalist Architecture that can be found in London, which has a strong influence of Le Corbusier design. Grade II listed, The Barbican is still the most sought-after residential development within The Corporation of London attracting all walks of life from academics, architects, fashion designers, lawyers and bankers to name but a few.
Residents enjoy 4 acres of gardens kept exclusively for their use, these gardens and lake bring a little bit of "Country Life" to the Centre of The City and The Barbican Centre which is part of the Global Cultural Districts Network, is the largest performing Art Centre in Europe, hosting music concert, art exhibitions and film screenings.
Cromwell Tower was built in 1973 and is the Eastern of the three towers, thus making it truly peaceful. For transport links, it is conveniently located to Barbican Underground (Hammersmith and City, Metropolitan and Circle Lines) and the Elizabeth line with its entrance on Long Lane giving quick and easy access to the city, Canary Wharf and London’s West End.
Whitecross Street which is moments away is one of London's oldest markets and dates to the 17th Century. The Street is now super fashionable with eclectic shops, an amazing day time food market offering the most diverse culinary delights from around the world, a vibrant coffee culture as well as a Waitrose supermarket.
A superb example of a Barbican Tower apartment.
