Kentish Town Road, London, NW1

BRICKWORKS SAYS

On the sixth and top floor of the former Dunn’s Hat Factory in Camden, this two-bedroom apartment sits within a building that once hummed with industry in the 1920s. The beautifully restored façade nods to that past, while 13 light-filled flats now occupy the upper floors. Inside, the proportions remain gloriously industrial: high ceilings and huge windows wrap around two sides of the main living space, flooding it with light and framing far-reaching skyline views.

The main living area and terrace are generous and easy-going, an ideal setting for entertaining or simply stretching out at the end of the day. A sleek high-gloss kitchen rises to the room’s full height, reinforcing the sense of scale. The principal bedroom opens directly onto the terrace, while the second bedroom works equally well as a guest room, snug, study or studio. It’s a flexible home that feels very much part of the city around it.

Camden is as vibrant as ever — markets, music history and alternative spirit all within easy reach. The Parakeet and Belly Bistro are both close by, Camden Town Brewery isn’t far, and Primrose Hill offers green escape. Several Tube, Overground and Thameslink stations are within walking distance too, when you need to get further afield.

THE OWNER SAYS

We are very lucky to have incredibly generous windows that let in ample light throughout the year. Our plants love it and are absolutely thriving! As London is such a low city, it means our view of London is also pretty unobstructed, which is a rarity nowadays.

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.
