About
Property Reference: 3013187. Large Self-Contained Studio in Queen Square, Bloomsbury Nestled in the heart of Bloomsbury, this unusually spacious self-contained studio of c.
39 m² (420 sq ft), with a remarkably well-separated layout, is situated on the second floor, with lift, of a handsome red-brick period mansion block.
The building underwent a full external refurbishment, completed in 2023, and has entrances from both picturesque Queen Square and Guilford Street.
The flat itself faces the latter, a quiet, residential one-way street, and benefits from a beautiful large bay window.
Features Exceptionally spacious and well-separated layout: Far removed from the typical compact central London studio, the flat makes unusually efficient use of its generous footprint, with the main living/sleeping room completely separate from the kitchen, bathroom and storage areas.
A private entrance hallway leads through double doors into the generous main room.
The expansive room is centred around a large period bay window and provides ample space for distinct living, dining, working and sleeping functions.
The separate kitchen and bathroom each have their own window and door, allowing the main room to remain remarkably free and uncluttered.
Exceptional storage: One of the highlights of the flat is its exceptional and cleverly concealed storage, including 8 spacious built-in cupboards, a set of deep bookshelves and a generously sized walk-in wardrobe, providing unusually generous space for clothes, books, coats, luggage and everyday belongings while keeping the main living space clutter-free.
Flexible furnished living: The spacious studio comes fully furnished with essential amenities, including a sofa bed that easily converts from a single to a double bed, a multi-use table, chairs, drawer units and lighting.
This allows the main room to function as a proper reception room during the day, while giving tenants the freedom to customise the remainder of the living space and make it their own.
Separate fitted kitchen: The kitchen is completely separate from the main living space and has its own window and door.
It is equipped with a two-burner ceramic hob, a Panasonic combination convection oven/grill/microwave and a Bosch refrigerator with freezer compartment, together with plentiful cupboards, drawers and workspace.
Clever space-saving features include a concealed over-sink draining cupboard, with an integrated tray to collect draining water, allowing dishes, pots and pans to dry neatly out of sight, and two fold-down worktops which provide additional preparation or working space whenever needed.
Full private bathroom: The generously proportioned bathroom has its own large frosted window and has been upgraded in recent years, with a new basin and vanity installed in 2024 and new pipework and a full-size bathtub installed in 2025.
The bath has a shower and screen, and the room also includes a WC and washing machine.
Period character with modern practical comforts: The flat benefits from replacement windows installed in 2023, neutral decoration, generous proportions and the character of a traditional Bloomsbury mansion block.
Heating and water included: Heating, hot water and cold water are included in the rent. Tenants are responsible for electricity, broadband/telephone and council tax where applicable.
Lift and daytime caretaker/porter: The building benefits from a lift, secure entry system and daytime caretaker/porter.
Prime Location and Surroundings Exceptional Bloomsbury location: Queen Court is situated directly on Queen Square, within easy walking distance of Russell Square and Holborn Underground stations, as well as Euston, King's Cross and St Pancras stations.
Outstanding everyday amenities: The Brunswick Centre is only a short walk away, offering Waitrose, shops, cafes and restaurants, with a wide choice of supermarkets, coffee shops and other amenities throughout the surrounding Bloomsbury area.
Ideally placed for London's universities and institutions: ucl, lse, soas, Birkbeck and King's College London are all within convenient walking distance, making the flat an excellent choice for students, academics and professionals seeking a peaceful and exceptionally practical central London home.
The combination of space, separate kitchen, full bathroom, outstanding storage and prime Bloomsbury location makes this a particularly unusual offering among central London studio apartments.
