This exceptionally large three-bedroom penthouse occupies approximately 2,218 sq ft in a converted factory building, offering big loft-style rooms, high ceilings and industrial character. The layout includes three double bedrooms and four bathrooms across a duplex arrangement, plus two private terraces that give city glimpses and outdoor living space. The building has a garage for secure parking and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal – useful for professionals and investors alike.
Practical costs and tenure are important here: the apartment is leasehold with about 124 years remaining, a ground rent of £150 per year and a service charge of approximately £6,664 per year (above average). Heating is electric underfloor, which is efficient for comfort but means running costs tie to electricity prices rather than gas. The property was constructed between 1996–2002 with double glazing installed after 2002.
The location is a cosmopolitan, multicultural student neighbourhood close to central amenities, independent shops and transport links. That brings energy and rental demand but also correlates with a higher local crime rate; buyers should consider security measures and suitability if family living is required. For investors, the area’s rental market and large apartment size offer strong potential; for owner-occupiers, the penthouse suits those seeking a dramatic, spacious city home rather than a quiet suburban setting.
Viewings are recommended so buyers can assess scale, finish and running costs in person. The property offers a rare combination of industrial character, very large internal space and private outdoor terraces, balanced against higher communal charges, electric heating costs and a busy urban neighbourhood.
