Newly refurbished with industrial features and modern services
Air cooling cassettes and wall-mounted electric heating installed
Own WCs, shower, fitted open-plan kitchen and storage
Secure gated private mews with on-site concierge
Pedestrianised mews limits vehicular access; not for heavy industrial use

Set within a gated Victorian mews just off Borough High Street, this warehouse-style office offers a generous 2,563 sq ft footprint across ground and lower-ground levels. The recent refurbishment preserves industrial character — exposed brick, high ceilings and large multi-pane windows — while adding practical comforts such as air cooling cassettes, recessed lighting, a fitted open-plan kitchen, WCs and a shower. The long lease (977 years remaining) and competitive guide price of £1,000,000 make it an appeals-ready asset for owner-occupiers or investors seeking central London scale at c. £390 per sq ft.
Internally the plan suits a single occupier or flexible workspace: reception and private meeting rooms at ground level, with a large open-plan studio and additional meeting rooms, storage and services below. On-site concierge and secure gated access enhance privacy and control, though vehicular access is limited — the pedestrianised mews is best for office, creative studio or light storage rather than heavy goods traffic.
Prospective buyers should note practical running costs and local context: service charge c. £4.70 per sq ft (below average) and estimated business rates c. £10.00 per sq ft. The location benefits from excellent transport links, high footfall amenities and proximity to London Bridge and Borough Market, but the immediate area records very high crime levels — buyers should factor security and insurance implications into occupation plans.
Overall this is a large, newly renovated central-London office with strong character, long lease security and flexible internal accommodation. It will suit a buyer seeking an atmospheric, sizable city workspace or an investor targeting robust occupational demand in SE1.
