2 bed Flat For Sale £1,460,000
This superb apartment, with an impressive private roof terrace, is arranged over two floors at the top of a former Victorian warehouse on Tabernacle Street and reaches over 1,100 sq ft internally. The locally listed building has a London stock brick façade, and was extensively renovated in the early 2000s, when four apartments were created, and a striking glass extension was added to the top floor. Furniture Designer and Architectural Artist Juliano Cordano then implemented an impressive and holistic re-design of the interiors, using a bold palette of meshed and rusted steel, Iroko and engineered oak, that contrasts with a careful use of primary colours throughout.
The Tour
Entry to the apartment is from the fourth floor. Staghead coat racks are mounted on navy walls in the hallway and storage for shoes and scarves is cleverly concealed behind hidden doors.
In the open-plan living and dining space, black walls rise from engineered-oak flooring, stained a similar deep hue. The wall of glazing cuts across this room at an angle, giving views over the skyline and allowing light to flood the room. The Bulthaup kitchen is set back from the main living space and is enclosed by a low partition of black steel mesh. Gaggenau ovens are set in a bank of dark cabinetry, and there is a stainless steel sink, all concealed behind a yellow curtain. Engineered oak floats above and makes a striking feature.
An Iroko staircase cleverly conceals a bar and leads to a mezzanine, which is currently arranged as a bedroom. The wall of glazing cuts across the space, and the same striking metal found throughout Juliano Cordano’s design forms a bedhead; a bespoke Iroko cabinet runs along one side. Behind the bedroom are a laundry room, bathroom and a dressing room. In the former, there is underfloor heating, a stainless-steel sink with Vola taps and a Miele washer dryer. There is also a balcony on this floor.
The bathroom uses an intelligent combination of steel, white tiles and buttercup yellow paint in a bespoke formation that nods to Le Corbusier. A brushed stainless-steel sink with Villa taps is set below mirrored cabinetry, and there is a deep bath/shower enclosure.
At the back of the plan, on the lower floor, there is a guest area with built-in bunk beds, closed off by yellow electrically-operated curtains. On this floor, there is also a separate WC and a decked terrace.
All lighting, windows, and curtains are managed by a Rako system and there is air conditioning throughout.
Outdoor Space
A bespoke spiral staircase constructed of raw steel ascends to the private roof terrace, where dramatic 360-degree views of the city surround this planted oasis. A bench seat and table are set amongst ivy, lavender and bamboo that rise from rusted steel planters. There is a rusted steel sink and a storage island. Glass screens surround the space with a gentle visual sedum buffer between the terrace and the top of the glazing.
The Area
Tabernacle Street is very well located, nestled between Old Street and Great Eastern Street, and five minutes from the galleries, cafes, bars and restaurants of Shoreditch and Hoxton Square. The iconic Barbican Centre – Europe’s largest centre for the Arts (cinemas, galleries, concert halls and theatres), is a 10-minute walk to the south. The eclectic East End markets of Columbia Road, Brick Lane, Spitalfields and Broadway Market are a short stroll away, while Boxpark, Cheshire Street and Shoreditch High Street offer a wealth of international and independent boutiques.
Tabernacle is conveniently placed for access to Old Street Underground station, which lies a few minutes’ walk north, running Northern Line services across the city. Shoreditch High Street station is a 10-minute walk east for access to the London Overground.
