About this home
This beautifully bright and spacious one-of-a-kind maisonette is located within a contemporary development designed by Munkenbeck & Marshall, set beside the Regent's Canal and the Shoreditch Park on the historic site of the former Gainsborough Film Studios-once home to cinematic legends such as Alfred Hitchcock, Gracie Fields, and Ivor Novello. Originally a power station, it was converted to film production studio by Michael Balcon, becoming famous for 1920s silent films, 1930s comedies, and iconic 1940s melodramas. The site was redeveloped into luxury apartments in 2004.
Thoughtfully renovated in 2024, the maisonette is arranged across two floors on upper ground level accessed via a bridge over the feature water channel. The open-plan kitchen/ dining room and reception are flooded with natural light through double heighted floor to ceiling windows that are fitted with double layer privacy blinds. The bespoke high-spec kitchen is fully fitted with boiling and filtered water tap, new AEG appliances which includes an induction hob, oven, dishwasher, and wine fridge with WiFi control.
The upper floor homes two double bedrooms with primary offering an en-suite shower room with built-in storage, and fitted wardrobe space. The second double bedroom offers a walk-in wardrobe. The three-piece family bathroom with bathtub and storage is also located at this level. There is a separate study space at this level overlooking the communal courtyard with iconic bronze sculpture of Alfred Hitchcock and Shoreditch Park via the large floor to ceiling windows. The property is complete with zone controlled underfloor heating, remote/ app controlled electric double layer blinds (privacy and blackout layer), and offered on the market chain-free. There is also a 24/7 concierge for the development.
