This exciting live / work apartment is quietly situated on the top two floors of a converted factory on Tudor Road. Nestled between London Fields and Victoria Park, the apartment has a light-filled and highly engaging interior, with exposed concrete ceilings, steel trusses, huge original Crittall windows and a double-height mono-pitch roof with skylights.
The apartment measures approximately 1,100 sq ft internally. It is entered on the first floor (there is no lift), where there is a bedroom and separate dressing room, and a bathroom. The bedroom could easily be divided into two spaces with the addition of a door from the hall. The second floor contains the live / work space, a huge room which has a kitchen and sitting area at one end and beautiful dining / workspace at the other.
The building was converted by 410 Architects. It is entered via a former office facing Tudor Road. This particular flat is favourably located in the rear warehouse, which was originally a shoe factory built in 1924. There is a great sense of community within the building, with a number of interesting residents from the creative industries.
It is rare to find such a raw, authentic industrial conversion in London. The apartment is owned by an architect, who has retained the simplicity and originality of the space.
