2 bed property for sale

Claredale Street, Keeling House Claredale Street E2

A 2 bedroom, duplex apartment set on the 1st and 2nd floors of sought-after Keeling House - a stunning example of a Brutalist residential building with a Grade II* Listed status in acknowledgement of its architectural significance.

Arranged over the first and second floors, the layout centres on an expansive open-plan kitchen and reception. The kitchen is thoughtfully integrated with midnight blue cabinetry and wooden worktops, while herringbone flooring leads out to a private west-facing balcony. Upstairs, two well-proportioned double bedrooms provide quiet retreats with expansive urban views, served by a modern bathroom finished in marble-effect tiling.

Built circa 1954, Keeling House was designed by one of Britain’s great architects - Denys Lasdun. The building was given a Grade II* listing in 1993 and the building was renovated by Munkenbeck + Marshall architects in 2001. Approached via a set of secure gates, the building is manned by superb day porters Graham and Rais. Keeling House has a communal courtyard with two water features and secure cycle storage. There is lift access, with each floor further secured with individual floor door codes.
