2 Bedroom Penthouse Under Offer
This unique architect-designed duplex penthouse apartment on the top of a period warehouse in a prime London Fields location has a stunning cutting-edge luxe cabin-style interior.
Designed and built by Jo Hagan at USE Architecture Ltd, and occupying the top two floors of a painstakingly refurbished Victorian warehouse virtually opposite London Fields station, this extraordinary apartment is a true one-off. Â It's one of only four units in this five-storey boutique development which comprises two commercial units on the lower floors (currently a florist and design studio), with a studio apartment and this duplex penthouse above.
Every detail has been carefully considered to create a property with a coherent design aesthetic, combining original restored features, such as the exposed brick walls, with new industrial-style additions such as the Crittall-style double-glazed windows, and design features that include a Douglas fir parquet floor, panelling, and staircase, and bespoke ply built-in cupboards.
Entering the apartment via the original industrial staircase, you come up into a spacious open-plan living space with large warehouse windows on three sides and a striking central handbuilt Douglas fir bespoke staircase which divides the room into zones for dining and relaxation. The galley kitchen sits on a raised plinth which provides an excellent vantage point, a sense of separation, and a handy bar-height worktop opposite the dining area. The striking matt black kitchen is compact and well-equipped, with handleless units, integrated appliances, and a Corian worktop.
The top floor has two double bedrooms with en suite shower rooms and great views across the rooftops and towards London Fields. The layout maximises the floor space, with built-in bespoke ply storage walls surrounding the beds, and ingenious walk-though wet rooms with Crittall-style glazed enclosures.
The apartment has air conditioning and underfloor heating throughout, powered by an air source heat pump mounted on the roof of the building. Planning permission for a roof terrace has been applied for. If successful, buyers will have the option of purchasing the roof terrace.
This apartment is perfectly suited to modern living, and has an enviable location in the heart of London Fields, with the station, park, lido, and thriving day and nightlife shops, bars, and restaurants just moments away.
