Modern apartment set in a Victorian school conversion for sale
A beautifully designed London apartment within a former Victorian school building is for sale.
Spread across the ground and first floors of Stepney City Apartments, the two-bedroom property retains all the original hallmarks of the building, including expansive arched windows, vaulted ceilings and exposed brick walls.
Architect Roger Black converted the school in 2002, creating an exclusive gated development of contemporary flats with concierge service. From the Japanese-style communal garden to the internal entrances complete with Italian-designed lamps, the apartments offer luxury living in the heart of Canary Wharf.
The entrance unfolds into an open-plan living and kitchen area, complete with grand floor-to-ceiling windows and oak herringbone parquet flooring. The modern kitchen features Arabescato marble splashbacks, industrial accents and an abundance of natural light, while the lounging area has enough space for a large corner sofa and coffee table.
Completing the ground floor is a sizeable double bedroom with French doors that lead to the tranquil terrace. Upstairs, the main bedroom offers ample storage with a walk-in wardrobe and an ensuite bathroom. Highlights also include underfloor heating (perfect for winter) and large windows providing pretty garden views.
'A standout feature is its exclusive east-facing terrace, offering a secluded outdoor retreat that seamlessly extends from the living space,' say the agents at Knight Frank. 'Whether relaxing indoors or enjoying the fresh air outside, this residence offers a truly distinctive living experience.'
New owners can enjoy leisurely strolls around Shoreditch, Colombia Flower Market, and along Regent's Canal. The area also offers access to plenty of green parks, including Mile End Park and Victoria Park.
This apartment is on the market for £860,000 with Knight Frank.
