Curtain Road, London, EC2A

A triplex penthouse spanning over 2900 sqft (approx.) in the centre of Shoreditch with 3 beds, 3 baths (one bedroom and bathroom included in a completely self-contained studio apartment), and 2 large roof terraces. Converted from a former duplex apartment on the top 2 floors of a warehouse conversion, the current owners obtained planning permission and designed a spectacular penthouse with the help of Brinkworth Architects. With East and West facing aspects over 3 floors, the apartments finish and design are flawless and boasts seldom-seen roof terraces offering stunning unobstructed 360-degree views of the City and beyond.

With private lift access to the 3rd floor, a large lobby allows access to the current studio apartment and duplex penthouse. The open plan lateral studio spans 470 sqft (approx.) with windows at both ends and features a fully fitted kitchen and separate tiled shower room. Double French doors open to a private South and West facing roof terrace. This large secluded space offers huge potential to create a roof garden with the addition of plants, shrubs, and trees. Internally, the studio floor has original aged hardwood herringbone flooring, soft Farrow & Ball paintwork, and abundant light. Although the current owners use the 3rd floor (measuring 904 sq ft approx. in total) as a separate self-contained studio, it has been designed so that the entire floor can be connected (subject to relevant planning consents) to create a further two double bedrooms or potential separate working/entertaining space.

The entire staircase and apartment have rustic Oak Herringbone flooring (replicating the original flooring below) and underfloor heating. The 4th floor houses 2 large double bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, featuring Porcelanosa tiles, free-standing toilets, a bathtub, and showers. There is a separate utility room with a washer/dryer and Mitsubishi Eco heat pump boiler system, and blackout blinds and air conditioning in each room. The impressive 5th floor has a semi-open plan fully integrated kitchen by Design Space London, with Opal quartz-Carrara Venatino kitchen worktops, an under-island wine fridge, and a Bora Pure induction cooktop and integrated cooktop extractor. Streetside, the imposing curtain window ceiling height combined with full-length and width windows are an immediate striking feature, along with the sliding glass doors and Juliette balconies facing West. This floor has electric blinds, air conditioning, and a large guest toilet stylishly fitted with Bert & May Black Vigo floor tiling. To top this stunning space, the staircase continues up to a private roof terrace offering privacy and amazing 360-degree views of London, most dramatically the South facing unobstructed view of the prominent famous City skyline.

Based on Curtain Road within the Shoreditch Triangle, the immediate area is surrounded by converted warehouses with diverse residents and amenities. The range of local restaurants, great bars, music venues, and nightlife is endless and all on the doorstep. Old Street tube (Northern Line) is a few minutes around the corner, and both Liverpool Street Station and Shoreditch High Street Station (Overground) are a short walk away.
