Prices from £1.1 million: apartments at Halsey House, a refurbished listed building in Red Lion Square conservation area in Holborn, WC1
David Spittles16 April 2019
Superbly central Holborn has an increasing number of homes dotted among the shops and eateries, offices and barristers’ chambers.
Red Lion Square is arguably the area’s best address, laid out in the 1680s and still with some original houses.
It also boasts a heritage of political radicalism in the shape of Conway Hall, home of the National Secular Society among others, said to be the oldest “free thought” organisation in the world.
Halsey House is one of the conservation area’s listed buildings, refurbished into 13 apartments after five decades of decline.
The project coincides with Camden council’s Bloomsbury Squares initiative to upgrade the area’s historic green spaces.
The apartments cost from £1.1 million. Call 020 3668 1119.
