Limehouse Cut, Spratts E14

Spectacular triple-aspect, loft-style apartment in the historic Limehouse Cut Building, with over 2500 sq/ft of internal space, canal-facing private balcony and allocated parking.

The concept of ‘loft-living’ started when creative communities were drawn to warehouse buildings, which provided freedom, flexibility and masses of natural light by way of their expansive floor plates, high ceilings and large windows. These highly sought-after, authentic ‘lofts’ are an increasingly rare find so we are delighted to be able to introduce this one to the market.

This wonderful top floor apartment has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, study, utility room, and a breath-taking open-plan kitchen/dining/reception room which has a 4.5m double-vaulted ceiling, eight enormous crittal windows and 3m loading doors that open onto a private balcony overlooking the canal. The apartment takes full advantage of its prime, top floor position and 4.5m ceilings, to provide a highly functional space with masses of storage and natural light, whilst also retaining its flexibility and many original features, such as the crittal windows, exposed brickwork and original wooden rafters.

Built-in 1899, Limehouse Cut Building is one of six buildings that formed The Spratts dog food factory. Situated alongside the Limehouse Cut canal, the factory produced and stored a range of goods over many decades until being converted into authentic industrial loft-style units and sold as ‘shell’ in the late 1980s.

The area around the Limehouse Cut continues to undergo major regeneration, with gyms, cafes and a range of independent shops all opening nearby in the past few years. There are the green spaces of Mile End and Victoria Park nearby and even The Queen Elizabeth Olympic village can be reached with a 25-minute walk along the canal towpath.

Transport links to the City, West London and Canary Wharf are very good with Langdon Park DLR station 0.2 miles away and Bromley-by- Bow tube station 0.5m away. (District, Circle and Hammersmith & City lines).

The property also benefits from access to one of East London finest communal roof gardens, an allocated secure parking space and a 961-year lease.
