23, Chequer Street, London, EC1Y 8PW

The Storey: Tucked away within Chequer Court, a secure gated development in Clerkenwell, this detached two-bedroom house offers something a little different for such a central London location.

The ground floor has a generous living and dining space with plenty of room to create separate areas for relaxing and entertaining.

The partly separate kitchen sits just off the main living space, with a convenient WC also located on this floor.

Outside, the house has its own private astro-turf garden, with space for outdoor seating and dining. Being enclosed and surrounded by greenery, it feels nicely tucked away from the city outside.

Upstairs are two good-sized bedrooms, both with plenty of space for storage and a desk for anyone working from home, alongside the main family bathroom.

The real appeal here is the combination of a detached house, private garden, and gated setting – not something you come across every day in EC1.

The Vibe: Chequer Street puts you between Clerkenwell, Barbican and Old Street, so there is plenty within walking distance while the house itself remains tucked away behind the gates of Chequer Court.

Whitecross Street Market is nearby and is a great weekday lunch spot, with everything from Turkish and Thai to Brazilian street food.

For coffee, fwd:Coffee is on Whitecross Street, while EC1 Coffee House is another local option on Clerkenwell Road.

There are plenty of places for dinner and drinks too, including Clerkenwell favourite St. John, while the Barbican Centre is close by for cinema, theatre, exhibitions, and live music.

Clerkenwell itself has a great mix of restaurants, pubs, and independent spots to explore.

For getting around, Barbican, Old Street and Farringdon are all within easy reach, with Farringdon also providing Elizabeth line and National Rail services.

Seals the Deal: A detached house with its own private garden, set behind the gates of a secure development in the heart of Clerkenwell.

You get the privacy and outside space of a house, while still being within easy reach of the City, Old Street and Barbican.
