Summary - 21, WHELER STREET E1 6NR
1 bed 1 bath Office
Versatile live-work space with mezzanine and 800 sq ft near major transport.
Corner ground-floor unit with return frontage onto Calvin Street
A prominent ground-floor, corner long-lease unit in the heart of Shoreditch, arranged mostly open-plan over approximately 800 sq ft GIA, with a mezzanine, shower room, WC and kitchen. Large street-facing windows give good daylight and the return frontage onto Calvin Street increases visibility for a business or live-work occupant. The building benefits from mains gas heating with a boiler and underfloor heating, double glazing and was constructed in the early 1990s.
The unit retains a commercial rates assessment and has previously had planning consent for live-work use — it has, however, been used as an office in recent years. The location offers easy access to Shoreditch High Street and the A10, surrounded by strong retail and leisure operators, good public transport and excellent mobile and fast broadband connectivity, supporting either a creative workspace or rental occupation.
Practical facts to note: this is a long leasehold (125 years from 25.3.2001, c.101 years remaining). Ground rent currently £200pa, with contractual increases to £1,200pa; business rates apply (rateable value £11,000). Energy performance is rated D (valid to June 2028). The area records very high crime levels, and VAT may be chargeable on sale under current legislation.
This property suits a buyer seeking a visible, flexible central London workspace with immediate occupation potential and modest refurbishment or repositioning upside. Any purchaser should check current VAT, business rates liability and local security measures before proceeding.
