Situated on the fourth and fifth floors of the esteemed Bernhard Baron House, a former school turned into a desirable residence in Aldgate East, this duplex penthouse apartment is a true marvel. Originally constructed in 1919, the building held the purpose of serving as a synagogue and housing for Jewish settlers. The financial backing for this establishment came from the philanthropic endeavors of Bernhard Baron, a prosperous tobacco manufacturer. Today, the building's captivating red brick façade and its historical value make it an exclusive living choice.

Perched at a corner position, the apartment boasts an abundance of natural light, courtesy of its floor-to-ceiling windows. The remarkable 430 square foot wraparound terrace treats occupants to uninterrupted panoramic views. Inside, the open-plan living room, adorned with wooden flooring, presents an ideal setting for hosting social gatherings. The main suite is accompanied by an en-suite bathroom, while the second bedroom offers striking views facing east.

Nestled near the Aldgate rejuvenation zone, this property boasts convenient proximity to the City, and a brief leisurely stroll leads to iconic landmarks such as the Tower of London and Tower Bridge. The charming ambiance of St. Katharine's Dock, with its array of dining venues, cafes, and pubs, is within easy reach. Additionally, the dynamic locales of Brick Lane, Spitalfields Market, and Whitechapel Art Gallery are all easily accessible.

Commuting is a breeze with a range of transportation options, including Whitechapel (District and Elizabeth Lines), Aldgate East (District and Hammersmith & City Lines), Aldgate (Circle and Metropolitan & City Lines), Shadwell (London Overground and DLR), Tower Gateway (DLR), Tower Hill (District and Circle Lines), and Fenchurch Street (Overground) stations.
