'The apartment would be perfect for a lawyer, or anyone in accountancy or banking as it is close to many city firms,' says Armond Ghahrami, director of the Orlando Reid estate agency.

It is currently occupied by a person in the legal profession who had enjoyed living in the apartment for a few years but now wanted a change, Ghahrami says.

'The fact that it has a separate study room is helpful, too, you can work at home but with the flexibility to go to an office if you need to.'

Florin Court was built in 1936 by Guy Morgan & Partners, who had previously worked with iconic architect Sir Edward Lutyens, designer of The Cenotaph.

It features original, curved windows and walls and fits perfectly within Charterhouse Square, which dates back to the 14th century. 

The stunning structure was also shown in the Batman spin-off series Pennyworth in 2019.   

'The views from the communal roof garden are amazing if you just want to sit,' Ghahrami says.

'If you want to keep up your fitness, you have it all on site, as well as the Art Deco pool, which is absolutely beautiful, especially after a stressful day at work.'
