As eccentrically shaped as the 19th century building in which it sits, the top floor flat on offer was originally an artist’s studio and now features a double height reception space with a kitchen and bathroom to the rear and a bedroom on a mezzanine level. It totals just 603 square foot in size but is described as having “commanding views over the square and towards the Victoria & Albert Museum”.
Flat 7, 5 Thurloe Square is offered on a leasehold basis with 969 years remaining and a share of the freehold and W. A. Ellis are the selling agents.
