2 bedroom apartment

Set along the tranquil stretch of Regent’s Canal between Angel and Old Street, this striking two-bedroom apartment resides within one of London’s most architecturally distinctive buildings. An ode to industrial form and contemporary finesse, it blends raw structural honesty with spatial poetry, where exposed concrete and soaring steel-framed windows meet sinuous curves and organic materials.

From the moment you enter, the space envelops. A vast, open-plan kitchen and reception room sweeps out: lateral, luminous and alive. High ceilings amplify scale. Citrified, blond wood floors stretch the full length, leading the eye to a dramatic fleet of near floor-to-ceiling industrial windows that flood the space with light. The effect is immersive.

But the defining feature? A breathtaking curved sage-green internal wall that arcs across the space like a sculptural ribbon. Both architectural focal point and spatial device, it introduces softness and fluidity to the home’s industrial edge. Curved architecture is re-emerging as a signature of modern design, breaking away from rigid lines to create flow, form, and emotional resonance. This one is a masterclass and an original champion.

The kitchen is a vision in white and steel. Contemporary, minimal, and professional in feel, white cabinetry and brushed metal worktops evoke a chef’s workspace, while oversized steel handles and stone-coloured floor tiles zone the area with subtle distinction.

There are two generous double bedrooms, each with its own en-suite. One, embraced by the gentle arc of the feature wall, feels almost gallery-like; shelving integrated into the curve creates a moment for books, art, or treasured pieces. The other is more rectilinear, outfitted with extensive fitted storage, and would suit perfectly as a guest room and home office. Both are bright, calm, and beautifully spacious.

Originally a Victorian warehouse, the Canal Building was redeveloped with rare architectural ambition: its skeletal steel frame and glass exterior now a landmark on Shepherdess Walk. Residents benefit from a secure, design-conscious environment, with the added romance of the canal gliding by and a 24-hour concierge.

A home of compelling architecture and contemporary depth. Minutes from the cultural currents of Shoreditch, Clerkenwell, and Islington, but grounded in the serenity of the canal.
