Set within a sought-after warehouse conversion on Fairclough Street, this extremely large two-bedroom apartment spreads over two self-contained floors and offers striking industrial character. Large sash windows and exposed brick deliver abundant natural light and period detail, while contemporary fittings and integrated appliances create a comfortable, modern living environment. Private entrance and an off-street parking space are rare central-London benefits, useful for owners who commute by car occasionally or need secure storage.
The layout works well for a couple, sharers or a buyer looking for rental flexibility: each floor has kitchen facilities and a shower/bathroom, so both levels can function independently. The property is Share of Freehold with 98 years remaining on the lease and manageable ground rent, giving clearer long-term control, though the remaining lease term is below the ideal threshold for some mortgage lenders and may need extending in future.
Practical points to note: service charges are £3,477 pa and ground rent £150 pa. The building dates from c.1900–1929 with solid brick walls (likely no added cavity insulation), double glazing with unknown install date and gas-fired boiler with radiators. These facts mean future buyers should budget for ongoing maintenance, potential energy improvement works and confirm heating/glazing ages during surveys. Transport, dining and leisure amenities are exceptionally close by — Brick Lane, St Katharine Docks and multiple stations are within easy reach — making this a strong central option for first-time buyers or investors seeking long‑term rental appeal.
