City estate agent Benham & Reeves specialises in the sale and letting of premium residential properties in the heart of one of London’s most historic and well-known areas.  The “Square Mile” and the areas which fringe it are no longer simply a place to work but also a sought-after residential area for City professionals wishing to live close to their office, offering the easiest of commutes.  This is London’s world-famous financial district and the properties here are packed full of character and style.  New residential towers have been transforming the skyline with uber luxurious, contemporary homes designed for those professionals who wish to live at the most prestigious addresses.  These new developments are often classed as 7* due to their super high spec and exceptional amenities and many apartments enjoy spectacular views across the City of London and the River Thames.  

Our City branch, based in Fleet Street, offers buyers a wide choice of properties, from brand new residential towers to smaller developments tucked away in quiet, hidden streets and squares throughout this famous business district. Our Fleet Street branch is one of five offices operating across East London.  

We offer a full sales service as well as a residential lettings and property management service for investors.

I really enjoy the contrast.
