Chronicle Tower, City Road, London EC1V

Listed 5 Oct 2026 · Islington
A stylish warehouse apartment with impressive proportions and a mezzanine study.
Description
Set on the third floor of a former factory building, this apartment offers approximately 699 sq ft of accommodation, with impressive ceiling heights, exposed brickwork and substantial Crittall-style windows.
The entrance hall opens into a well-proportioned reception room, where a tall, multi-paned window provides natural light to the living and dining areas. Exposed brickwork frames views across neighbouring rooftops, while dark timber flooring complements the building’s industrial character. Full-height fitted shelving, accessed by a library ladder, provides useful storage and creates a feature within the room.
The kitchen is positioned off the reception room, creating a clear distinction between the cooking and entertaining areas. Contemporary cabinetry is paired with dark work surfaces and matching splashbacks, with an integrated oven, gas hob and storage.
A separate bedroom is positioned alongside the reception room and benefits from a similarly generous window. A mezzanine level provides additional space, currently arranged as a home office with a fitted timber desk overlooking the main living area.
The bathroom features green wall tiles, patterned flooring and chrome fittings. A freestanding bath with an overhead shower is complemented by recessed timber shelving.
Citygate House is a substantial red-brick building dating from the interwar period. Originally constructed as a factory, the building retains broad windows and strong architectural proportions characteristic of its industrial origins.
