Forming part of a converted industrial space, this one-bedroom apartment occupies the top floor of this contemporary design by architect Barnaby Gunning in collaboration with the artist owner Anthony Gross.

Accessed via a Brooklyn-esque external metal staircase that masks the entire facade, the apartment is cleverly configured to maximise light and space, with a bright open-plan living room, bedroom and bathroom. The living space contains the kitchen, dining and seating area, whilst the bedroom and bathroom are linked by a wide hall designed as a dressing area.

An over-sized box window, that incorporates a window seat, looks out onto a private roof terrace that is accessed through glazed double doors. A panoramic window is positioned above the kitchen worktop, giving striking views over the adjacent railway.

The interiors have been carefully considered, decorated with muted tones in contrast to the vibrant brick of the building’s exterior form. The ceiling timbers have been left exposed creating a sense of volume in the space.

The apartment is very well located between the exciting areas of Brixton and Camberwell Green. The vibrancy of Brixton’s restaurant scene is well documented with the village, Market Row and Acre Lane all being celebrated destinations. Camberwell has some excellent places to eat and drink, notably the Camberwell Arms, the Observer Food Monthly’s ‘Best Sunday Lunch’ in 2015. The beautiful Brockwell Park and its popular Lido are a short walk away.

Brixton Underground station is on the Victoria Line, for services to Oxford Circus in around 11 minutes and Victoria in around seven minutes. Nearby Denmark Hill station gives direct access to London Bridge, Farringdon, Shoreditch and Dalston.
