A bright and well-maintained South facing two-bedroom, one bathroom apartment across from the Shoreditch Park - the view of which is framed perfectly by the apartment’s South facing curved windows. A subtle yet striking reminder of what once was a pioneering British film studio, often called "London’s Hollywood". Originally a power station, it was converted to film production by Michael Balcon, becoming famous for 1920s silent films, 1930s comedies, and iconic 1940s melodramas. The site was redeveloped into luxury apartments in 2004.

The property offers a bright dual aspect open plan living room with fully fitted kitchen and unobstructed views of the City skyline with the Shoreditch Park in the foreground. Large South facing floor to ceiling windows, with character, flood the room with natural light, creating an airy atmosphere that perfectly complements the stylish and well-maintained interiors.

Both the double bedrooms are South facing and offer fitted wardrobe space along with leafy views of the Shoreditch Park. The three-piece family bathroom with bathtub has been thoughtfully designed featuring modern fixtures and a clean, elegant finish.

Set in the increasingly popular De Beauvoir area, the apartment is surrounded by a thriving local community. With Hackney Basin (0.1 miles), Shoreditch Park (0.1 miles), The renowned De Beauvoir Deli (0.5 miles), and a growing selection of revitalised pubs and restaurants, the area is very appealing. The property is also located near to Upper Street (0.8 miles), Angel (1 mile), and Shoreditch (1.1 miles).

The location offers excellent transport links, with Essex Road (0.53 miles), Haggerston & Hoxton (both 0.6 miles), Old Street (0.7 miles), Dalston Junction, Canonbury, and Angel (all 0.8 miles), Moorgate (1.1 miles), London Liverpool Street Station (1.3 miles) and Highbury & Islington (1.1 miles), offering access to National Rail services, The London Overground (Windrush, Mildmay & Weaver Lines, The London Underground (Northern, Circle, Hammersmith & City, Metropolitan, and Elizabeth Lines).
