A striking two-bedroom loft in a converted York Central warehouse, offering almost 1,300 sq ft of lateral living in the heart of King’s Cross. High factory-style windows and 27' open-plan reception/kitchen create light-filled spaces, while a substantial private roof terrace extends entertaining potential in summer months. The layout includes two well-proportioned bedrooms, generous built-in storage and a sleek contemporary shower room.
This apartment is chain-free and presented in a modern, industrial style with original brick façade and high ceilings. The open-plan arrangement and sliding wall between the second bedroom and reception allow flexible use — suitable as a generous city home or a high-demand central London rental. Residents are eligible for on-street parking permits.
Notable practical points: there is only one bathroom for this large apartment, brick walls are likely uninsulated (constructed 1930–49), and council tax is above average. The immediate area records very high crime levels, which buyers should weigh against the excellent transport links and vibrant King’s Cross amenities. Reconfiguration to add a second bathroom or third bedroom is possible subject to permissions.
For buyers prioritising space, light and location close to Coal Drops Yard, Granary Square and King’s Cross / St Pancras, this is a rare oversized loft offering significant lifestyle appeal. For those sensitive to maintenance, insulation and security considerations, factor potential upgrade costs into your decision.
