Bloomsbury is enjoying a residential renaissance, not least because of a £1 billion makeover spearheaded by landlord The Bedford Estates.

The upgrade includes reinstating a traditional high street leading towards Russell Square and the British Museum, and enhancing village-like Lamb’s Conduit Street and Store Street. Many of the surviving Georgian buildings are returning from office to residential use.
