Architecture & Interior

Limehouse Cut is unquestionably a handsome building, its factory facade is wrapped with solid, rich red brick work with nods here and there to its manufacturing past.

Heading inside, this apartment’s conveniently located at the ground floor level with the front door just off the substantial communal lobby.

A trio of different colour brick tones offer a hint of modernism in the solid stairwell descends to the lower floor, in to the vast 34 ft studio reception space. Soaring concrete ceilings, sturdy central columns & exposed brick walls bear the hallmarks of an industrial conversion. These pair beautifully with concrete, flagstone style floor and an entire wall of Crittall windows on one side of the main studio space that overlook the historic canal outside.

Internal windows section off a corner of the open plan space providing a comfortable bedroom area, whilst on the opposite side of the studio, a sizable room, accessed via beautifully distressed Crittall doors, is used to store huge canvasses.

A fitted kitchen fills the last corner of the studio space. Wall mounted cupboards sit above wood counter tops that double as a breakfast bar.

The large bathroom sits to the back of the apartment, accessed from the lower hallway.

Despite it’s requirement for remodelling, there’s a warm honesty about the place which encourages you to start the decision process around what you would do with the space once you’ve settled in. It’s a blank canvas for those seeking a unique space to live and create in.

Outside

If you are after an escape and a place to sunbathe, take the lift to the top floor of the building and enjoy the huge communal roof terrace. It’s wonderfully landscaped and is looked after by the residents – just one example of the community spirit that you’ll enjoy in the Spratts.
