An exceptional two-bedroom duplex penthouse extending to approximately 1300 sq ft, occupying the upper floors of the landmark Exchange Building in the heart of Spitalfields. Arranged over two levels and offering impressive proportions throughout, the apartment combines generous living space, private terrace and far-reaching views across the London skyline.
The main living floor is centred around a superb reception and dining room, where high ceilings and extensive glazing create a wonderfully bright and impressive entertaining space. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the outlook across the surrounding rooftops towards the City, while doors open directly onto a substantial private terrace, a particularly impressive extension of the living space
The open-plan kitchen sits seamlessly alongside the principal living and dining area, providing excellent storage and preparation space while remaining well suited to both everyday living and entertaining. A separate utility room provides valuable additional storage and laundry facilities, allowing the main living spaces to remain uncluttered.
The upper floor is dedicated predominantly to the sleeping accommodation. The principal bedroom is particularly generous, with extensive wardrobe space, and ensuite bathroom. The second bedroom is also a comfortable double and is served by an additional bathroom.
The apartment also benefits from a secure allocated underground parking space. A considerable advantage in this central London location.
The Exchange Building itself is one of Spitalfields' most recognisable residential buildings. Dating from the 1930s and distinguished by its Art Deco detailing and prominent clock tower, the building was converted for residential use in the late 1990s and retains much of its original industrial character. Residents benefit from an impressive entrance lobby, 24-hour concierge, lift access and secure entry.
Location
Positioned on Commercial Street, the apartment sits at the meeting point of Spitalfields, Shoreditch and the City, placing some of East London's best restaurants, shops and cultural destinations within easy walking distance.
Old Spitalfields Market is moments away, while the independent shops, cafés and restaurants of Brick Lane, Fournier Street and Redchurch Street are all close at hand. The area has established itself as one of London's most exciting dining destinations, with restaurants including St. John Bread & Wine, Ottolenghi, Manteca, Padella, Bistro Freddie and Brat all within the surrounding neighbourhood.
Despite the energy of its immediate surroundings, the penthouse's elevated position provides a very different perspective from above.
Transport connections are exceptional. Liverpool Street Station is approximately five minutes' walk away, providing National Rail services together with the Elizabeth, Central, Circle, Hammersmith & City and Metropolitan lines. Shoreditch High Street and Aldgate East stations are also within easy reach, providing convenient connections across London, to Canary Wharf and the West End, as well as direct Elizabeth line services towards Heathrow.
