Flat 7, 2-3, Crawford Passage, London, EC1R 3DP

“A lofty warehouse conversion in the heart of Clerkenwell” Set on the top floor of a converted 19th-century warehouse in Clerkenwell, this bright two-bedroom apartment balances a contemporary layout with the distinctive proportions of its industrial fabric.

Converted in the early 2000s, the apartment has a streamlined feel throughout; large glazing on all sides and towering heights create a wonderfully airy space.

The arresting exposed timber trusses are amongst the apartment’s most defining features, adding warmth and texture to the otherwise pared-back design.

The Tour Entry is to a communal hallway on the ground floor, where exposed brickwork and steel establish the building’s industrial character.

The apartment sits on the third floor, accessed via a staircase. Inside, the apartment opens to an impressive kitchen, dining and living space.

Generous glazing on two aspects draws an abundance of natural light into the room, while double doors open to a Juliet balcony.

Hardwood flooring underfoot and crisp white walls enhance the sense of light and openness.

The kitchen is neatly integrated into the open-plan space, with duck egg-blue cabinetry providing a subtle colour contrast to the neutral palette.

An elegant, open-tread spiral staircase leads up to the mezzanine level; a versatile space that could be arranged as a home office or studio space. A run of skylights illuminates the space.

At the rear are two generously proportioned double bedrooms. Both are equally bright and well-composed, and the principal bedroom has dual-aspect windows.

A contemporary bathroom completes the plan, fitted with a shower-over-bath.

The Area Popular with architects and design studios, the neighbourhood is renowned for the quality and variety of its bars, pubs and restaurants, most notably the nearby Quality Chop House, St.

John, Luca and Moro. Exmouth Market, Shoreditch, Covent Garden and Soho are all nearby. Sadler’s Wells Theatre, Barbican Centre, Tate Modern, and St. Paul’s Cathedral are within easy reach.

Smithfield Market, which is currently under development into a Covent Garden Style Piazza (planned to include the new Museum of London), is set to open this year.

Farringdon station (Circle, Metropolitan and Hammersmith & City, Elizabeth lines and National Rail) is approximately eight minutes’ walk from the apartment and provides quick access to the West End and London’s major airports.

Chancery Lane and Barbican stations are also within walking distance. Excellent bus routes run to central, north and south London from near the apartment. Tenure: Leasehold / Lease Length: Approx.
