An authentic Clerkenwell loft within a landmark Art Deco conversion: The Ziggurat, Saffron Hill, EC1N.
A former print works which, until the 1980s, serviced the British newspaper trade, The Ziggurat was converted into flats in 1997 by ORMS architects. It was one of the first loft conversions in Clerkenwell and has become one of the most recognised and sought-after residential buildings in London.
The building takes its name from Mesopotamian pyramid-like structures spanning several terraced stories. Built in the 1930s, it is an Art Deco landmark retaining many original features, such as exposed concrete ceilings and columns, sandblasted brickwork, and stainless-steel-clad walls in the hallway. Many individual flats also retain these details.
Occupying a fourth-floor position within The Ziggurat, this well-proportioned loft apartment offers a rare opportunity to acquire a genuine warehouse conversion in one of Clerkenwell’s most established, design-led addresses.
The apartment is defined by its original architectural structure. Exposed concrete mushroom columns, generous ceiling heights, and large factory-style windows create a calm, light-filled interior with a clear sense of industrial provenance. The principal reception and dining space extends over 24ft, allowing for flexible living while maintaining a strong spatial flow.
A separate kitchen sits discreetly off the main living area, finished in a restrained contemporary palette. The double bedroom enjoys excellent natural light and open outlooks, while the shower room is finished in a minimal, pared-back style that complements the building’s architectural language.
The Ziggurat remains one of Clerkenwell’s most recognised warehouse conversions, benefitting from secure entry and a day porter. Positioned moments from Farringdon Station, residents enjoy immediate access to the Elizabeth Line alongside Thameslink and Underground connections, placing the City, Canary Wharf, Heathrow, and the West End within easy reach.
Saffron Hill sits at the centre of Clerkenwell’s design district—a neighbourhood defined by historic warehouse architecture, independent restaurants, galleries, and leading architectural practices. It offers a lifestyle that continues to attract discerning owner-occupiers seeking authenticity over formulaic new-build living
