Apex House, Bacon Street, Shoreditch, London, E1

BRICKWORKS SAYS

Perched above Brick Lane, this flat makes the most of its corner position. Light pours in from all sides, flooding the open-plan living area and illuminating the recently revamped sage-green kitchen. The space is made for connection — where you can cook, eat, and catch up — with a front-row seat from which to watch the world go by.

Inside, the energy softens. A recent redecoration in warm, earthy tones brings a sense of calm and cohesion, while new carpets in the bedrooms add softness underfoot. The main bedroom benefits from an ensuite shower room, a nice touch that makes life easier for sharers or frees up the main bathroom for guests.

Shoreditch doesn’t stand still. From street art to global flavours, it’s constantly evolving but always driven by creativity. Brick Lane may be famous for its beigels and curries, but the food scene stretches far wider — from smart cocktail bars to late-night pop-ups and cult restaurants. And when the sun sets, the neighbourhood transforms: the clubs, basement venues and rooftop bars come alive. Having a base here puts you right at the centre of it all — a private spot to dive into everything the city has to offer.

THE OWNERS SAY

The flat is bright, airy and open, but what makes it special is being right in the thick of things. You can wander downstairs and take your pick of cafés, bars or restaurants — whatever suits your mood.

It’s inspiring to live somewhere so full of colour and culture, where food, art and fashion collide. It’s a vibe unlike any other.

THE LEGAL BIT

While we strive to create true-to-life photographs, floor plans and descriptions, our marketing material is only a guide. Purchasers should always visit in person, ask relevant questions and triple-check details. Brickworks takes our duty of care incredibly seriously and takes all reasonable steps to ensure all presented information is correct. However, we sometimes rely on the accuracy of the information provided to us by the seller and others. Also, please note that we often round up/down total floor plan measurements and/or use approximate distances.
