This distinctive two-bedroom apartment occupies over 1,020 sq ft on the second floor of the converted Manhattan Building, part of the Bow Quarter. High ceilings, tall arched windows and exposed brick create an airy, loft-like living space; the split-level reception and generous storage beneath the bedrooms give flexibility and keep living areas uncluttered. Secure underground garage parking, concierge and communal terraces add everyday convenience.
Residents benefit from on-site leisure: a swimming pool, gym and landscaped communal grounds provide private outdoor space and recreational options rarely found in nearby blocks. The conversion blends Victorian red-brick character with contemporary touches, and the apartment’s elongated reception and timber floors suit buyers who value scale and a strong sense of identity in their home.
Notable practical points: the property is leasehold (214 years remaining) with an above-average service charge (circa £6,000) and a small ground rent (£100). Heating is electric via room heaters rather than a communal system, and the building’s original solid brick walls are assumed to have no cavity insulation — both factors to consider for running costs. There is a single shower room serving two bedrooms, which may not suit all households.
This home will suit someone looking for a spacious, characterful flat with strong communal amenities and secure parking — ideal for buyers seeking lifestyle benefits over a standard new-build. Be aware of higher service charges and electric heating when comparing running costs and budgeting for ongoing expenses.
