A touch of the great outdoors
Step through an understated entrance somewhere on Lower Briggate, less than 5 minutes’ walk from Leeds City Station and 100 yards from the Trinity shopping centre, and legend has it that you will enter the historic “Lambert’s Arcade” and discover somewhere really quite special.
Your journey begins with a distinct change of pace and a noticeable sense of calm, as you enter the private covered walkway, and the gentle sounds of trickling water infuse the air, from a hidden location, somewhere within.
Step back into the sunlight of the elegant, south facing courtyard and your first experience is one of appreciation; for the magnificent Lambert’s House, now fully restored to its former glory. From here, you are taken on a journey along narrow-landscaped paths, featuring planting beds with a variety of perennial and climbing shrubs and a selection of carefully chosen trees, alongside seating, paving and subdued wall and ground lighting.
Further along, you will encounter the source of the enchanting sounds – the water feature outside the Residents’ Lounge and coworking space, which provides a focus for the Lambert’s House Apartments community – the perfect space for neighbourly gatherings, socialising, entertaining, co-working and collaboration, or simply relaxing.
Finally, at your journey’s end, you reach the other resident amenities, provided to enhance your experience of living at Lambert’s House Apartments; a dedicated post and parcel room and a secure cycle store, for those who aim to get around the city by bike.
Breathing new life into the old fabric
Set over three floors, Lambert’s House Apartments offers a wide range of apartments to suit every discerning taste, all finished to the same high specification and benefiting from an extensive array of appliances and high-tech home comforts. From a stylish duplex and studios, to beautifully appointed one-, two- and three-bedroom homes, we are proud of the fact that this is not a ‘copy and paste’ development, like the many typical apartment buildings, in other parts of the city. Each apartment is truly unique and designed to be as individual as its resident.
The greatest of respect has been shown for Lambert’s House and the historic yard’s remarkable architectural heritage, and every care has been taken to bring this important piece of history back into contemporary life; retaining as much of the original fabric as possible, faithfully matching new materials with old and wherever possible, leaving historic brickwork and timbers exposed.
Lambert’s House Apartments truly stands apart from other developments in the city centre and to top it off, the entire complex will be professionally managed by leading international property managers JLL, who will ensure that all tenants receive a consistently high level of service, with one point of contact for both their everyday needs and a wide range of optional additional services.
