A radiant celebration of space.

There is something quite special about the Paramount Building, possibly the most nominated and significant residential building in Clerkenwell.

Built in the mid 1930’s by the builders John Laing, it was occupied for manufacturing and warehousing by a variety of companies including the Scholl footwear company, it was converted in the mid 1990’s into the most spectacular loft apartments by Warner Lofts, with designs by John Randle of Circus architects with the façade glamorized with white render paint and balconies. It remains one of the most iconic and desired building in Clerkenwell and exemplifies loft living at its finest.

What makes this apartment so special is that it is available for sale on the open market for the first time since inception, with superb ceiling heights, Westerly views, exposed concrete ceilings and balcony.

The accommodation comprises a huge reception space sensibly divided into living and dining areas with access onto a balcony and a recessed kitchen. The principal bedroom has ample storage cupboards and also direct access onto a balcony. There is a large bathroom and generous hallway as well as an additional sleeping deck area.

St John Street houses some of the most outstanding loft apartments found in Clerkenwell and this loft will not disappoint. Clerkenwell’s industrial and commercial history is quite striking with its current prosperity indebted to its past, dating as far back to its monastic roots. In this respect Clerkenwell has been progressive, with brewers, waterworks, distilleries, ironmongers, gemmologists, watchmakers and print workers all having used these wonderful loft buildings as their workplace.

Farringdon Station is now home to one of the largest terminuses in London with Underground, Elizabeth line, Mainline and Thameslink giving easy access to four of London’s International Airports, with Heathrow a direct 58-minute journey away, whilst Canary Wharf in the East and Bond Street in London’s West End both within 9 minutes.

The London Museum’s relocation to the Southern end of the abandoned Smithfield Market is underway, receiving £180m by the City and London Mayor and planned to open in 2027 creating new gallery space as well as options for larger events and exhibitions.

Clerkenwell is renowned for the quality and variety of its bars and restaurants, fantastic range of artisan food and wine purveyors as well as Waitrose just steps from the apartment. Exmouth Market, Cowcross Street, St Paul’s and the City are a short walk away.
