1 room flat of 59m² in London

Stunning, bright canal-side loft apartment in the highly sought-after Union Wharf building. Overlooking the Regent’s Canal and Wenlock basin, this flexible live-work unit in a former Shoreditch warehouse sits on the first floor with an uninterrupted canal view. Reaching nearly 800 sq ft internally, the apartment is primarily open-plan. The interiors maintain a distinctly loft-like feel, with soaring exposed-concrete ceilings and supports. The windows have galvanised-steel frames and the balcony has a mesh-steel and concrete balustrade. On entry, there is a wide entrance hallway with access to the bathroom and a storage room. The larger-than-average open plan living and dining space is full of natural light, courtesy of the Crittall-style floor-to-ceiling windows. A well-sized kitchen is reached from the main living area, complete with new integrated appliances. The main bedroom, accessed from the main living space, boasts similar views towards the canal. An additional raised area, just off the main room, can also be easily re-configured as a guest bedroom or a work/study space. The building is extremely well-maintained and is entered from Wenlock Road, a quiet no-through road that runs towards the Regent’s Canal alongside Shepherdess Walk Park. The communal lobby has a concierge and night-porter, and lift access to all floors. The canal path that runs between the building and the water, is for the exclusive use of the residents. Mature plants, outdoor benches and tables give residents a unique, tranquil and quiet alternative to a traditional garden. The building is excellently located next to the Regent’s Canal footpath, that leads towards Angel in one direction, and Victoria Park in the other. Shepherdess Walk Park sits opposite the building’s entrance. It is conveniently placed for access to the City. The shops, bars and restaurants of Islington, Shoreditch, Hoxton and Clerkenwell are within easy reach. Significant redevelopment and investment is taking place in the area around City Basin and Old Street’s ‘Silicon Roundabout’, as it attracts tech companies and creative talent from around the world. Union Wharf is one of the few buildings in the area that qualifies for off-street parking from Hackney. Parking permits can be obtained directly via Hackney council. Both Angel and Old Street stations are nearby, for access to Northern Line services. Council Tax Band E
