Short term easy access savings

I have in the region of £90k, proceeds of a property sale 12 months ago, which has been sat in a 6% savings account for 12 months and matures at the end of the month.  I saved 20k in a fixed term cash ISA for the previous tax year which has matured and has been transferred into a Trading 212 cash ISA and have 14k also in a Trading 212 cash ISA for the current tax year.  Once the savings account matures, I will top up the ISA for this tax year to the max, so will have c.84k left over.  The plan is to buy a property with my partner later in the year, so am looking for a home for my 84k that will pay the best interest rate but allow easy access when the time comes to buy a property.  Depending on how long this takes, I will probably top up the 84k each month.

Any suggestions on the best course of action gratefully received.
