Waterson Street, Shoreditch, London, E2

This eclectic three-bedroom, two-storey duplex apartment in the heart of Shoreditch is a love letter to the industrial neighbourhood it is so intimately a part of.

Entering the apartment, one is immediately enveloped by white walls and blond floors. It is fresh and contemporary, cleaning our eyes of the anthracite city outside.

The lounge is tastefully decorated and spacious, bursting with glorious natural light from large double windows.

The kitchen works in tandem with the industrial world that sprawls beyond. Wooden doors, red-stained and robust, open onto a shared external pathway, reigniting that sense of community that has long fanned the flames of Shoreditch. There is a real strength here-- in the scaffolding of long, silver handles and gloss black worktops-- that toes the line between the contemporary and industrial.

The principal bedroom is a uniquely elongated space, long and sweeping, that feels intentionally withdrawn. It is a hideaway, full of surprises: like the dressing room tucked around the corner. There is something about the windows that reminds one of the panels of old film reels.

Two further bedrooms are both bright and generous. The second resides opposite the main bathroom. The third has its enamel white en-suite.

The apartment is located in the arty and hip area of Shoreditch, right next to Columbia Road Flower Market. Young creatives and trendsetters fill the fashionable clubs and bars that surround Shoreditch High Street, Great Eastern Street, and Old Street, while an eclectic dining scene features everything from trendy chain restaurants and smart gastropubs to artisan coffee shops and noodle bars.

Originating as a sphere of Victorian entertainment and primary textile trade, Shoreditch has become the creative epicentre of the Capital.
