Avantgarde Tower, Avantgarde Place, E1

Set in Avantgarde Tower, this three-bedroom apartment is part of a sought-after residential development that brings together architecture, landscape and shared amenity in the centre of Shoreditch. From its elevated position, the apartment looks out across the city, with views framed by full-height glazing and a south-east facing balcony that extends the living space outward and captures light throughout the day.

The plan is clear and practical, with a wide entrance hall leading into an open living, dining and kitchen space. The kitchen is fully integrated with quartz worktops, high-gloss cabinetry and Siemens appliances and is organised around a central dining bar. Wood flooring runs through the living areas, while the bedrooms are finished with pale wool carpets that soften the spaces. The three bedrooms are well proportioned, with two principal rooms offering generous storage and one benefitting from an ensuite bathroom. The third bedroom works equally well as a guest room, study or studio. Bathrooms are finished with porcelain tiling, bespoke mirrored cabinetry, rain showers and underfloor heating.

Comfort cooling, underfloor heating, strong digital connectivity and integrated storage are built in throughout. The building is professionally managed, with a double-height entrance foyer and a 24-hour concierge that provides a sense of arrival and day-to-day ease. Residents have access to a gymnasium, a residents’ lounge that can be booked for private use, secure bike storage and underground parking. Landscaped communal spaces are central to the scheme, including the sheltered Free Spirit Garden with its living green wall, as well as a residents’ roof terrace with open east-facing views across London.

Avantgarde is arranged across three buildings, each with a distinct character, combining taller skyline presence with quieter courtyard spaces and shared amenities. It sits between Shoreditch, Spitalfields and the City, placing some of east London’s most active neighbourhoods within easy walking distance. Redchurch Street, Brick Lane and Spitalfields Market are close by for independent shops, galleries and markets. The local food and drink scene is well established, with nearby favourites including Lyle’s, Brat, Smoking Goat, Rochelle Canteen, Shoreditch Grind, Pizza East and the ever-changing mix of venues around Boxpark and Hoxton Square.

Green space is woven into daily life, with Shoreditch Park, Haggerston Park and the quieter gardens of Spitalfields nearby, alongside longer walking and cycling routes along the Regent’s Canal. The area is also well placed for education, with Queen Mary University of London, London Metropolitan University, UCL East and City, University of London all accessible by public transport.

Shoreditch is widely recognised as one of London’s centres for technology and creative industries, with a strong start-up presence alongside established global companies, contributing to the area’s energy and working culture. Connectivity is a key part of its appeal, with Shoreditch High Street Overground station close by and Liverpool Street within easy reach, offering Underground lines, the Elizabeth line, Overground and mainline services, making travel across London and beyond straightforward.
