  • Situated at the southern end of Blackfriars Road next to St George’s Circus, well-positioned to immerse residents in the very best of what the local area has to offer; from art galleries, theatres and historic pubs to numerous cafes, artisan food markets and some of London’s best restaurants.
  • Blackfriars Circus is exceptionally well-connected for public transport with four stations within walking distance – Southwark (7 minutes), Waterloo (10 minutes), Elephant & Castle (10 minutes) and Blackfriars (15 minutes).

It will attract residents that are seeking a well-appointed home, close to a raft of local amenities in a part of London that holds a strong identity within the community. Buyers will also benefit from the peace of mind provided by Barratt London’s very own on-site property management company which will look after the development and public realm for the long-term.”
