Gun Place, London, E1W 2RX

This distinctive warehouse apartment has been completely reimagined by ConForm Architects, transforming a former studio into an intelligently designed home with a dedicated bedroom space.

The architectural refurbishment celebrates the building’s original character, exposing brickwork, concrete ceilings, beams and columns.

At its heart, a bespoke birch-ply cube incorporates the bedroom, storage and kitchen appliances, making thoughtful use of every square foot.

Adaptable panels allow the sleeping area to open towards the living space or close for privacy, balancing the atmosphere of loft-style living with everyday practicality.

The living and dining area occupies the brightest part of the apartment, while the kitchen flows around the central structure, avoiding unnecessary corridors.

Warm timber finishes provide a striking contrast to the raw brick and concrete, creating an interior that is both contemporary and firmly rooted in its industrial setting.

Offered for sale chain-free, the apartment also has access to the development’s underground parking, and benefits from a convenient daytime porter service.

Gun Place is a Grade ii-listed former dockside warehouse forming part of Wapping’s historic Gun Wharves complex.

Originally built during the early 20th century and converted into apartments in the mid-1980s, the building retains its impressive stock-brick elevations, former loading bays and original crane equipment.

Together with the riverside warehouses opposite, it forms one of the few surviving warehouse “canyons” in London’s Docklands, a striking reminder of Wapping’s maritime and trading past.

Situated in the heart of Wapping, just moments from Wapping station, the development is ideally placed for the neighbourhood’s independent cafés, fine dining restaurants and historic riverside pubs.

Cobbled streets, converted warehouses and Thames-walkways give the area its distinctive village-like character, while nearby St Katharine Docks offers a picturesque marina setting with further dining options.

The City and Canary Wharf are within easy reach, combining the charm of this historic riverside neighbourhood with convenient access to two of London’s principal business districts.
