About
This well-appointed studio has a unique design due to its separate sleeping area, creating a divide between sleeping and living.
On the second floor, walk-up, of a period building overlooking Queen's Theatre bordering Soho and a short walk from Covent Garden, the apartment has a modern finish with woodwork painted in a dark grey shade complementing the smart wooden floors.
The modern grey kitchen is open plan to the living space, there is a stylish shower room, useful fitted wardrobes in the sleeping area and further storage is located in the hallway.
Underfloor heating and secondary glazing are fitted for tenant comfort.
Several Central London neighbourhoods like Soho, Covent Garden, Mayfair, St James's, Fitzrovia and Bloomsbury are all within walking distance of Shaftesbury Avenue.
Numerous bus routes run along Shaftesbury Avenue itself, while Tottenham Court Road (Central, Northern and Queen Elizabeth lines) underground stations, and Piccadilly (Piccadilly and Bakerloo lines) are also a short walk away.
The apartment is available from December on an unfurnished basis (furniture packs available by separate negotiation). Subject to contract and satisfactory references. Westminster Council tax band: F.
