About this home
This impressive home is set within Canal Building, a former 1930s textile warehouse positioned directly on Regent’s Canal. Converted by architect Patrick Downing, the building is one of East London’s earliest loft developments and remains a benchmark for industrial residential architecture.
The apartment occupies an exceptional west-facing corner position and is uniquely positioned to feel as though it sits directly on the water, offering spectacular views along Regent’s Canal. A rare overhanging window aspect enhances the sense of connection to the canal below and makes this particular apartment especially distinctive within the development. The large open-plan kitchen, living and dining area is wrapped in floor-to-ceiling Crittall-style glazing, allowing an abundance of natural light while making the most of the impressive canal views. The original warehouse character has been retained throughout, with exposed concrete and brickwork, floating ceilings and solid oak flooring.
The principal bedroom continues the open, loft-style feel, with full-height windows and sliding internal doors that can either enclose the room or remain open to create a more fluid living space. The generous en-suite bathroom features a lowered Roman-style bath, an expansive open rainfall shower and a bespoke walk-through wardrobe positioned behind the bed. The second bedroom is accessed from the opposite side of the living space via sliding doors, allowing it to work flexibly as a guest bedroom. A separate bathroom with a walk-in shower serves this room. The entrance hall has also been thoughtfully configured to incorporate a custom-built office area, maximising the use of space without compromising the flow of the apartment.
Further benefits include a 24-hour concierge service and secure undercover parking immediately below the block in which the apartment is located.
The apartment is also ideally positioned for the best of Islington, within a short walk of Angel Underground station, Camden Passage and Sadler’s Wells, as well as a fantastic selection of local pubs and restaurants, including The Wenlock Arms and The Duke of Cambridge organic pub. Additional information We have been informed that the primary external wall materials of the building/block have been assessed for fire safety. The assessor concluded that the fire risk of the external wall materials is sufficiently low that no remedial works are required. If you have any further questions, you should seek independent professional advice The Canal Building occupies a prime position directly on Regent’s Canal, with Angel station (Northern Line) just a 0.6 mile walk along the towpath. Old Street station, offering Northern Line and National Rail services, is equally 0.6 miles from the apartment. To the north lies Islington, with Upper Street and its established dining and shopping scene, while to the south, Old Street and Shoreditch provide a contrasting energy, recognised for it's creative, music and boutique shopping culture.
