This striking two-bedroom warehouse apartment in Martha’s Buildings has been newly renovated to an exacting, architect-led standard. Awarded and widely published, the home pairs industrial character with contemporary finishes: stainless-steel kitchen, hardwood and resin floors, bespoke joinery and built-in appliances create a turnkey central London residence. Triple/secondary glazing and an inner-courtyard green wall deliver an unusually calm outlook for an Old Street location.
Arranged around an open-plan living space with a full-width balcony, the layout prioritises flexible living and entertaining. Two generous ensuite bedrooms include walk-in wardrobes and durable polyurethane-resin floors; engineered timber and underfloor heating add daily comfort. Practical details include lift access, a utility room, projector wiring, and high-spec sanitaryware (Carrara marble and Starck fittings).
Buyers should note material running costs: an above-average service charge (approx. £5,874 pa) and an expensive Council Tax band. The building is a post-war, system-built construction with assumed limited wall insulation, which may be relevant for long-term energy considerations despite triple glazing and underfloor heating. Leasehold with c.103 years remaining and modest ground rent (£150 pa). The apartment suits professionals wanting a designer home close to Old Street, Shoreditch and excellent transport links, rather than buyers seeking a low-cost, low-maintenance suburban property.
