Location
Set within the historic former Nicholson’s Gin Distillery, this beautifully refurbished one-bedroom apartment offers a stylish central London retreat in the heart of Clerkenwell. The Grade Two listed warehouse conversion blends original character with fresh contemporary interiors, creating an inviting home for two guests. Ideally positioned between the City of London, Farringdon, Barbican and Islington, with London’s legal, technology and creative districts all nearby, the apartment is particularly well suited to business travellers as well as guests exploring the capital. Excellent transport links also make the West End and wider central London easily accessible.

Property Description
Located on the second floor with lift access, the apartment features one comfortable bedroom with a king bed and one contemporary bathroom with a walk-in rainfall shower. The bedroom has a calm and understated feel, with soft neutral tones, traditional window detailing and simple wooden furnishings creating a restful space at the end of the day. The bathroom is finished in large-format grey stone tiles, with a frameless glass shower enclosure and modern wall-mounted fittings.

The open-plan living, dining and kitchen area forms the heart of the home. Oak wood flooring and light walls create a warm, bright backdrop, while carefully chosen artwork, patterned textiles and subtle touches of colour bring character and personality to the space. A comfortable corner sofa provides an inviting place to relax, while the dining area is equally suited to leisurely meals, planning a day in London or working remotely.

The recently refurbished kitchen has a sleek contemporary finish with glossy cabinetry, stone-effect worktops and a useful breakfast bar. It is fully equipped for both short visits and extended stays, with modern appliances including a dishwasher and washing machine, making the apartment particularly practical for business travellers and longer bookings.

As part of the building’s Grade Two listed heritage, the apartment retains its original windows. These can be opened, although guests should be aware that their historic design naturally differs from modern glazing and forms part of the character of this distinctive former warehouse.

Neighbourhood
Clerkenwell is one of central London’s most characterful neighbourhoods, known for its historic architecture, converted warehouses, independent businesses and thriving creative scene. Its location between the City, Farringdon, Barbican and Islington makes it especially convenient for corporate stays, with major legal, financial, technology and creative districts all within easy reach. At the same time, the area offers plenty to enjoy outside working hours, from the Barbican Centre and St John’s Gate to the restaurants, cafés and pubs of Smithfield and Exmouth Market.

The neighbourhood is particularly well known for food and drink. Exmouth Market is a popular destination for independent cafés, restaurants and relaxed dining, including Moro and Morito, while St. JOHN on St John Street is one of Clerkenwell’s most established restaurants. Traditional pubs and neighbourhood drinking spots are plentiful too, with The Eagle on Farringdon Road and The Sekforde among the popular local choices. Whether visiting for work or leisure, there is an excellent selection of places to eat, meet or unwind within easy reach.

Transport connections make travelling across London particularly convenient. Farringdon Station is approximately five hundred metres away and is served by the Circle, Hammersmith & City and Metropolitan lines, alongside the Elizabeth line and National Rail and Thameslink services. Barbican Underground Station is approximately six hundred and forty metres away and is served by the Circle, Hammersmith & City and Metropolitan lines. Angel Underground Station is approximately eight hundred and ninety metres away and provides access to the Northern line via the Bank branch, offering straightforward journeys towards the City, London Bridge and destinations across north and south London.
