2 bed flat for sale

Summers Street, Clerkenwell EC1R

So, this is where it all began.

Back in the early 1990’s The Manhattan Loft corporation along with the ideas of award-winning architect Piers Gough introduced loft living to Clerkenwell, converting this imposing former printing manufacturer into innovative and creative places to live – known as Summers Street lofts.

They broke away from the uniform and conformist way of living, creating voluminous spaces that were energising, filled with light, retaining a little of the industrial past that Clerkenwell is so connected to.

Designed by the celebrated architect Stanley Peach in the 1930’s, best known for his design of the Centre Court for the Lawn Tennis Association at Wimbledon, this commanding building represents Clerkenwell.

This wonderful apartment is loft living at its finest, with ceiling heights of over 4m in the living area, exposed brick work and Crittall windows. The accommodation is extremely inviting with a huge reception, dining and kitchen area on one floor with huge windows. There are two generous bedrooms, one with an ensuite shower room and a further guest bathroom. There is great storage throughout the flat as well as a secure parking space.

Summer Street runs parallel to Clerkenwell Road and off Back Hill moment from Farringdon Underground, Elizabeth Line and Mainline station access making it one of the most accessible locations in Central London. But if transport is not your thing, not to worry, The City’s financial district, Covent Garden, Lincoln’s Inn, Bloomsbury, Islington and Kings Cross are all a short walk away, whilst the area is serviced by a fine selection of supermarkets, restaurant and bars which can be found on Exmouth Market, Leather Lane, Clerkenwell Road and Lambs Conduit Street.

An extremely exciting opportunity to purchase an important part of Clerkenwell history.
