So, this is where it all began.

Back in the early 1990's The Manhattan Loft corporation along with the ideas of award-winning architect Piers Gough introduced loft living to Clerkenwell, converting this imposing former printing manufacturer into innovative and creative places to live.

They broke away from the uniform and conformist way of living, creating voluminous spaces that were energising, filled with light, retaining a little of the industrial past that Clerkenwell is so connected to.

Designed by the celebrated architect Stanley Peach in the 1930's, best known for his design of the Centre Court for the Lawn Tennis Association at Wimbledon, this commanding building represents Clerkenwell.

This wonderful corner apartment is loft living at its finest, with ceiling heights of over 3m, exposed brick work and Crittall windows. The accommodation is extremely flexible and versatile with open spaces creating a bedroom area, huge reception space, dining area, kitchen and bathroom. As to be expected with a loft apartment there is a surprise - opposite the apartment there is a separate room which would make the most comfortable study/conservatory or for visiting guests their own space.

Summer Street runs parallel to Clerkenwell Road and off Back Hill moment from Farringdon Underground, Mainline and soon to open Cross rail, making it one of the most accessible locations in Central London. But if transport is not your thing, not to worry, The City's financial district, Covent Garden, Lincoln's Inn, Bloomsbury, Islington and Kings Cross are all a short walk away, whilst the area is serviced by a fine selection of supermarkets, restaurant and bars which can be found on Exmouth Market, Leather Lane, Clerkenwell Road and Lambs Conduit Street.

A very exciting opportunity to purchase an important part of Clerkenwell history.
