Description
Description
Straus Haus at 50 Great Sutton Street embodies the character of Clerkenwell’s heritage while offering a forward-thinking workspace designed for modern occupiers. Once home to a renowned bag manufacturer, this building has a rich history that our client, Nuveen, is carefully preserving. Instead of opting for demolition, they have chosen a sustainable route, merging and restoring two adjacent properties into a single, architecturally inspiring workspace spanning approximately 55,000 Ft². This approach respects the character of the original structures while modernising them to meet contemporary standards—ideal for a high-profile HQ occupier.
The property also benefits from flexible use on the ground and lower ground floors, which hold a showroom planning use class. These levels feature direct, independent access from Great Sutton Street, separate from the main entrance lobby, offering excellent visibility and access for businesses seeking a dynamic street presence. This makes it especially well-suited for brands or companies wanting to combine office space with a showroom or client-facing area.
In addition to the thoughtfully designed interiors, Straus Haus offers a private courtyard and external terraces on the 1st and 5th floors—perfect for informal meetings, relaxation, or outdoor working. The building’s design emphasises flexibility, featuring open, light-filled interiors with premium finishes, creating a workspace that meets the needs of today’s businesses while offering adaptability for the future.
Location
Situated in the heart of Clerkenwell, Straus Haus is surrounded by a vibrant cultural scene and enjoys exceptional connectivity to neighbouring districts, including Old Street, Shoreditch, Smithfield, and Angel. The Barbican Centre, with its renowned arts and events, is nearby, as are the bustling Cowcross Street and Clerkenwell Green, known for their array of shops, cafes, and restaurants. The stylish Zetter Townhouse, a chic boutique hotel with a cocktail lounge, further enriches the area’s unique blend of creativity and charm, while Compton Coffee House on St John’s Square is a local favourite, popular with both residents and office workers alike.
Smithfield is also undergoing a major transformation with the new Museum of London, and Angel offers further retail, dining, and leisure options. This combination of cultural vibrancy, neighbouring districts, and world-class transport links makes Straus Haus a highly desirable HQ location for forward-thinking occupiers.
Farringdon Station, just a short walk away, serves as one of London’s most significant transport hubs, offering access to the Circle, Hammersmith & City, and Metropolitan lines, as well as Thameslink and the recently opened Elizabeth Line. These connections provide direct, rapid links to key commercial districts such as the West End, City Core, Canary Wharf, and Heathrow Airport, while the nearby districts of Old Street and Shoreditch attract leading tech and creative businesses.
