The Lexicon, City, EC1

The area of London positioned between the City and Islington is being opened up to new possibilities and attracting interest from corporate professionals looking to rent accommodation near Old Street as it provides a convenient commute to the City's financial quarter. Lexicon, a sleek new collection of one and two bedroom apartments, dominates the canalside neighbourhood of what is now known as City Basin. The curved prism look of this building's 36 storey profile is complemented by the warm, luxurious design of its interiors and its stunning balcony views of the London skyline.

A 24 hour concierge service is on hand to help residents navigate the Islington/Hoxton/Shoreditch cultural landscape that is on their doorstep. Cutting edge nightlife and trendy shops are a well-established feature of this part of the capital and a short commute into the City means there is plenty of time to enjoy them. Lexicon is well positioned for forays into the West End and beyond as Old Street is a two minute tube journey from St Pancras. This is a major Underground interchange as well as being the starting point for the Eurostar service to Paris.

The resident-only amenities in Lexicon are of a particularly high quality with gym, spa and sauna facilities being available, together with a private conference room. Basement parking and cycle storage can also be arranged.
