1 bed Flat For Sale £885,000
Positioned within a former Victorian warehouse is this excellent one-bedroom apartment, a short stroll from the independent shops, cafes and restaurants of Old Street. The interior spaces retain the aesthetic hallmarks of warehouse living with exposed brick walls, double-height ceilings and vast quadruple-pane sash windows. The current owner has added a series of considered updates to maximise storage space and preserve the apartment’s original features, including a bespoke kitchen by Sola.
The Tour
Entrance to the apartment is on the second floor; the front door opens to a central hallway, with a spacious bathroom opposite. The voluminous open-plan living, kitchen and dining spaces lead from here, where four vast sash windows allow an abundance of light to pour through. Oak floorboards run the room’s length, highlighting the expansive lateral living arrangement.
A fully integrated bespoke kitchen by Sola extends the length of the wall, while cleverly positioned full-height cupboards opposite conceal an oven, microwave and pantry storage. Quartz worksurfaces contrast brilliantly against the dark wooden cabinetry, and there is a laterally arranged Barazza gas hob and a boiling water tap by Quooker. A built-in study area, with plenty of open shelves above, lies at the opposite end of the plan, maximising the internal layout.
The double bedroom lies on the opposite side of the apartment. Vast windows continue here, as does the exposed brick wall, creating a sense of continuity and flow. Floor-to-ceiling built-in cupboards are arranged at the rear. The décor in the en suite shower room echoes that of the main bathroom and is clad in small square beige tiles with chrome fixtures.
The building has use of a bike rack and a lift.
The Area
Leonard Street is excellently located for the best of Shoreditch, Old Street, Hoxton and Clerkenwell, areas renowned for their exciting mix of restaurants, bars and galleries, including o-zone, Lyle’s, Rochelle Canteen, Shoreditch House, Bao, Hales Gallery and Victoria Miro Gallery.
Neighbourhood favourites, St. John and Luca, are also within walking distance, as is The Barbican Centre, with its world-class cultural programme of cinema, music, theatre, talks and exhibitions, which is a few minutes walk from the apartment.
The closest underground is Old Street (Northern Line), less than a five-minute walk away. Barbican and Farringdon (both Circle, Hammersmith and City and Metropolitan Lines) are also within walking distance. Farringdon will be connected to the Elizabeth Line/Crossrail when it’s completed in late May 2022.
