This wonderfully bright, two-bedroom apartment is part of a converted tannery and has recently been updated by the current owner. The apartment enjoys access to a large communal roof terrace, which has impressive, far-reaching views across the London skyline. It also comes with the use of a bike store. Tannery House, in which this apartment lies, is brilliantly located on Deal Street, a stone’s throw from Brick Lane and the vibrant East End.

The Tour

The two-bedroom apartment is arranged over two floors and makes sensitive reference to the building’s industrial origins. A full-height void to the front of the living space draws light and volume to both levels through external and internal windows, capitalising on the excellent levels of natural light found throughout the apartment.

The main living areas unfold in an open-plan layout across the ground floor, illuminated by natural light that floods in through towering glazing. Original beamed ceilings, exposed brickwork and painted steel columns offer a rich backdrop for the contemporary detailing, while muted grey floor tiles throughout provides a wonderful sense of continuity. A smart kitchen lies at the rear of the plan; lined with French oak and white granite, it is arranged around a central island and sits harmoniously next to the living and dining area.

Two bedrooms can be found upstairs, plus an en suite and a separate, modern bathroom with a large bathtub. Both bedrooms are wonderfully bright, care of Crittall glazing that overlooks the floor below. The main bedroom has an en suite shower room, lined with terrazzo and matte black fittings. The second bedroom is currently used as an office.

Outdoor Space

The apartment has access to a large communal rooftop terrace with views of London, which is a lovely spot for evening drinks and an impressive space for entertaining.
