We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
A stunning large style studio (type F2A) which has been refurbished to a high standard.
Situated on the 5th floor with views east overlooking the landscaped gardens and views of the Gherkin and beyond.
The original kitchen has been upgraded with new cabinets, a Smeg double oven and a breakfast bar created in micro-cement with a fitted fridge and washing machine. The flooring is also micro-cement.
The main studio room has a wall of fitted wardrobes which houses the water tank and fuse box with fitted shelving and hanging space.
The bathroom was designed by Feix and Merlin architects with a contemporary suite, matte black taps, shower fittings and mirror, with tiled floors and marble effect wall tiles.
The Barbican Estate, Grade II listed in 2001, is the crowning achievement of the architects Chamberlin, Powell & Bon.
Residents have access to the estate's gardens as well as parking and storage cages (by separate negotiation).
Within the estate is the Arts Centre that offers three cinemas, a concert hall, theatres, an art gallery and an array of restaurants.
The Arts centre offers Architecture walking tours of the estate and the conservatory.
