High-spec conversion with rooftop views and immediate central transport links.
Three-bedroom two-storey apartment with industrial character
Set across two levels in a converted 1920s factory, this recently renovated three-bedroom apartment combines industrial character with high-spec contemporary finishes. Floor-to-ceiling Crittall-style windows, exposed brick and basalt floors create a bright, open upper level anchored by a Poggenpohl kitchen and integrated Miele and Gaggenau appliances. A glass floor panel and Lutron lighting add considered design touches.
The lower level houses three bedrooms, including a generous primary suite with an en suite shower room, built-in storage and original windows. The building’s communal rooftop terrace offers panoramic 360° views, including St Paul’s Cathedral, and there is an off-street parking space available by separate negotiation.
Practical strengths include a very long lease (approx. 969 years) and share of freehold. The apartment is well placed for central London living: Farringdon and Angel stations are each about a 10-minute walk, with excellent transport links including the Elizabeth line. Local amenities, acclaimed restaurants and several highly rated primary schools are all within easy reach.
Notable considerations: the service charge is high (approx. £6,170 pa) and council tax is described as quite expensive. The building’s solid brick construction likely lacks modern cavity insulation. The wider area shows pockets of deprivation despite strong central location and cultural assets, and parking must be negotiated separately.
