Now this…is the true definition of a Penthouse.

This quintessential duplex penthouse apartment in the Gainsborough Studios is a space of sheer spectacle, drama and luxury. Set on the top two floors (11th & 12th) of the much sought after former Alfred Hitchcock film studios (Gainsborough Pictures) the Penthouse overlooks Shoreditch Park & the rest of London for that matter from either one of the 4 private terraces or 2 balconies - outside space totals a vast 1,580 sqft (approx.).

Internally spanning 1,940 sqft (approx.) the penthouse has a large open plan living space divided into a lounge area complete with Marine aquarium, HD projector and recessed sound system. The kitchen is fitted with all important gas cooking and a utility room with full size twin fridge/freezer to one side. There is also a WC off the main living space. The apartment has heating and cooling by a underfloor and air conditioning.

Flanked by twin terraces, the first facing East, the other West making the entire apartment South facing so sunlight light can be enjoyed from breakfast right through to dinner. The upper floors comprise 2 double bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, each with their own balconies plus a further North facing terrace leading up to quite possibly the best terrace in London.

With breath-taking 360 degree views of the London city skyline with St Pauls Cathedral, Kings Cross St Pancras, Canary Wharf and Primrose Hill all on show, the top deck is like no other and comes complete with hot tub.

Gainsborough Studios is a modern residential block developed in 2004 and designed by architects Munkenbeck and Marshall on the Regents Canal opposite Shoreditch Park. Being just north of Old Street Tube station, transport connections are convenient being a short walk down New North Road or a walk up to Angel.

The building benefits from 24/7 onsite security and building concierge for convenience. The tenure also includes 2 secure and designated underground car parking spaces.

Currently Let until Sept 2023 with vacant possession available by issuing the relevant notices. For an investor the tenancy has the option to renew. Any notices for vacant possession will be issued on exchange of contracts.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on January 5, 2022

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on January 5, 2022

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
