* Leasehold
This beautifully bright two - bedroom apartment in Hoxton is defined by swathes
of glazing and a pared - back material palette. Set in a former warehouse, the
rooms are light - filled and airy, and the open - plan living area is perfect for
entertaining. A large south - facing terrace has been wonderfully landscaped,
dotted with trees and climbers. All residents within the Long & Waterson
community have access to a library, cinema, sauna, steam room and sundeck.
Long Street is a short walk away from the cafes, bars and restaurants of both
Hoxton and Shoreditch, and Hoxton station is a five - minute walk.
The Tour
Positioned on the ground floor, the apartment is accessed via a private
secured entrance with a 24 - concierge on hand. The front door opens to the
sweeping open - plan living space. Here, the current owner has removed a sliding
screen, cleverly opening up the space and merging the kitchen, living and
dining room. Large black - framed double glazed windows run along the width of
one wall, flooding the room with light and framing views of the verdant
communal courtyard. The kitchen is positioned to the side, where black
cabinetry by Poliform Varenna creates a striking contrast against the pale
engineered oak floorboards. Appliances by Miele are neatly concealed,
Caesarstone quartz forms the countertop and splashback, and the taps are by
Waterworks.
The two bedrooms, one currently configured as a study, are at the back of the
plan. Both are exceptionally light due to the same large windows in the living
space. Two rooms were opened up to create a large en - suite main bedroom, which
has a door that opens to the terrace. In the en suite, a bath has polished
nickel finishes, again by Waterworks, and a wall - hung oak vanity by Poliform
Varenna is illuminated by a Tim Dixon pendant light; porcelain floor tiles are
warmed by underfloor heating.
A large bathroom is in the centre of the plan, where white subway tiles
reflect light into the space, and there is a walk - in shower.
Outdoor Space
A glazed door opens from the main bedroom to the private terrace, which has
been sensitively landscaped by the current owner. The space is paved with
granite and potted with birch trees, creating a verdant urban oasis. Fern and
climbers are tucked away on one side, and the other has ample space for
outdoor furniture and a barbeque.
The Area
Long Street is a no - through road parallel to Kingsland Road, a short distance
north of Shoreditch High Street and east of Hoxton. The apartment is,
therefore, conveniently located by a wide and exciting mix of restaurants,
bars and galleries, including Lyle’s, Rochelle Canteen, Shoreditch House, the
Blue Mountain School and Victoria Miro gallery. The boutiques and cafes of
Redchurch Street and Spitalfields are within 10 minutes walk. Columbia Road,
with its famous flower market, is a short stroll East.
There are plenty of transport links within walking distance. Long Street is a
short walk from two Overground Stations, a six - minute walk from Hoxton
Station, and a 13 - minute to Shoreditch High Street Station; Old Street
Underground station is a 10 - minute walk west, running Northern Line services
across the city.
