Finding a pocket of calm in the City of London’s lively hubbub is no easy task – luckily we’re around to help. Located on the banks of the River Thames, this stylish home blends high-end hotel living with the flexibility of an apartment, so you'll have a luxury live-in experience when you move in. For the interior, think earthly tones, minimalist furnishings, and plenty of quirky ornaments that create a sleek yet homely ambience. The studio-style home is cleverly designed to make the most of the space, with a kitchen that comes with high-spec appliances, and a cosy living area that beckons light-reading and relaxation. Make the most of the bright and open So-Cal inspired downstairs co-working space, with sand-coloured hemp furnishings, beige low ceilings, and an array of wild plants and cacti. Functioning as an artisanal coffee house by day, and a playful cocktail bar and restaurant by night, this space will delight working professionals and city-breaking couples. Perfectly positioned, you’ll be able to explore attractions such as the Tate Modern, Shakespeare’s Globe and the food stalls at Borough Market by foot.

Local guide
About City of London
The City of London might be first and foremost a business district but it does also have over 8,000 residents who call it home, many of whom live in the famous Barbican buildings, one of the greatest examples of 1960s Brutalist architecture and also home to a world-class arts space. The streets of the Square Mile itself hint at the area's rich history: goldsmiths, mercers, grocers, fishmongers and their trades are still celebrated in their livery halls and there are over 600 listed buildings!
