A stunning duplex penthouse with panoramic London views.

Description
This exceptional duplex penthouse crowns Blake Tower, the newest addition to the Barbican Estate. Designed in the late 1960s by Chamberlin, Powell and Bon, the Grade II listed tower was once the Barbican ymca before its transformation by Conran and Partners for Redrow Homes. Their redesign preserves its sculptural concrete form while introducing a refined contemporary aesthetic and modern comforts.

Set across the top two floors, the apartment is a masterclass in light and space. The lower level is a vast social domain, where a reception room is arranged into zones for living, dining, and play. A wall of glazing frames breathtaking city views, while a semi-open-plan kitchen, crafted with high-spec appliances and precision-engineered cabinetry, anchors the space. Two bedrooms, two bathrooms (one en suite), a shower room, utility space, study nook, and storage complete the floor.

A sculptural staircase rises to the upper level, a dramatic double-height sanctuary flooded with natural light. The principal suite includes a sleeping area, walk-in dressing room, and sleek en suite. A second lofty space, currently a home office and cinema room, has a wet bar and terrace, both revealing breathtaking London panoramas. Residents benefit from a day porter and an option to rent parking within the Barbican Estate.

Location
Positioned moments from the Barbican Centre (0.4 miles), the penthouse sits within one of London’s foremost cultural enclaves. The world-class arts venue is home to the London Symphony Orchestra, the BBC Symphony Orchestra, and the globally renowned Guildhall School of Music and Drama.

Whitecross Street (0.3 miles), with its vibrant market and independent eateries, is nearby, as are the excellent transport links of Barbican (160 yards), Farringdon (620 yards), Moorgate (760 yards), and St Paul's (790 yards) offering access to the London Underground (Hammersmith & City, Metropolitan, Circle, Northern, Central and Elizabeth Lines), Thameslink and National Rail services.
