Features and description
Description
Bridge House’s architecture portrays being built in the Georgian period however the property was built in 1929. The commercial accommodation is divided over the basement (storage) and the main area is over the ground floor (rear) which is divided into 13 artist studios which are currently run by a non-profit making organisation secured on short term agreements. The property also benefits from having a spacious apartments which are located over the first and second floors which are currently occupied by the current owners. Bridge House’s historic exterior styling is a complete contrast to the deco interiors. The entire building’s concrete construction was a design detail that meant it withstood any attempted heist of the large amounts of cash stored here whilst serving as a community co- operative bank.
Architecture and interior
Bridge Houses’ historic exterior styling is a complete contrast to the deco interiors which are a truer reflection of the building’s construction date. It’s a solid construction. The entire building’s concrete composition.. A collection of thirteen individual artist studios dominates the rear of the ground floor. Creativity is now very much the focus of the building these days, but the use could easily be transferred to more business led operations if required, whether that be on a communal/shared basis or one company looking to consolidate teams of people in one central place. It doesn’t have to stop there either, the sheer scale of the ground floor means it would accommodate plenty of
other ideas or opportunities to suit all manner of new innovative ventures. High ceilings & original herringbone floors details add to the ambience of the period. The grand front entrance through ornate double doors opens into a beautifully preserved slice of Art Deco. Terrazzo floors cover every sq. Ft which continue into a further series of private office spaces and the community coffee shop. Big Georgian style windows and impressive ceiling heights combine to generate warmth and light which touches every corner. The self-contained owners apartment covers the entire first floor, accessed via the sculpted staircase on the ground floor. It’s a hugely practical and impressive home. With a sizeable family bathroom at one end, the central hallway divides the accommodation. A double bedroom, living room, large kitchen diner and study all fall on the left-hand side overlooking the street and all enjoy the same considerable ceiling heights as the ground floor.
An opulent 44 ft room occupies the entire rear of the first floor. This wonderfully preserved former board room contains an enormous number of deco features and with windows on three sides, the whole space is flooded with light. It’s currently being used as a private studio for the owner but with little effort, could be the most sensational open plan reception room, allowing for some of the utilitarian rooms on this floor to be converted into additional bedrooms. At the top (second floor) of the building, another self-contained, double bedroom, loft style apartment sits in the eyes of the roof. Including the tank room on this level, there’s an impressive 1065 sq. Ft. All the rooms have rooftop views of the local area and beyond. The lower ground floor serves primarily as a very cavernous area for storage and housing for the two efficient boilers that service the whole building. That said, with a little imagination, much of this area could be adapted to suit other commercial needs. It’s also where the original lavatories are found. These original art deco restrooms are original and un modernised but would make a unique feature once refurbished. A private passenger lift to all floors was installed during the 80’s and a new heating system just a few years ago. Whilst there’s plenty of potential for more casual alfresco space outside, the land which wraps around the building is used as parking for owners, tenants and customers.
