An incredibly rare opportunity has arisen to purchase this stunning and original warehouse apartment within the Jubilee Yard development in the heart of Shad Thames. This attractive two bedroom property extends to almost 1,200 sq ft and includes a secure parking space.

As you enter through Jubilee Yard, across the cobbled courtyard, you are greeted by the splendour of this fabulous warehouse conversion. The Canvas House, a previously derelict Victorian warehouse built in 1885, was converted into loft apartments and studio offices back in 1993.

This property is the perfect example of warehouse living and boasts all of the character features one would look for when considering a period property. Internally, the home offers a host of features with its triple-aspect reception room, multi-paned windows, exposed brick work and beams, as well as original 'trap doors' dating back to its commercial period. Additionally, its picturesque garden sits in a quiet position behind the building and allows for a tranquil escape.

The Canvas House, was previously a derelict Victorian warehouse, built in 1885, where ships' sails were made, and was later used for storing tents and marquees. Some apartments still have hooks in the ceiling beams where the sails were hung.

Jubilee Yard in the heart of Shad Thames, is the perfect location close to the banks of the River Thames, steeped in history and enchanting character. Located adjacent to the historical Tower Bridge, this area originally housed the largest warehouse complex in London. These warehouses contained huge quantities of commodities such as tea, coffee and spices.

A variety of bars and restaurants are within walking distance. The area is also very accessible and whilst many residents walk across Tower Bridge into the city, there are good transport links via London Bridge Mainline Station, underground (Jubilee and Northern lines) and Tower Hill (District and Circle lines). Another transport option is the River Taxi at Hays Galleria or St Katharine Dock.
