Great Guildford Street, London, SE1

This exceptionally bright two-bedroom apartment forms part of a late Victorian former warehouse. Internally, it offers over 1000 square foot of impressive, largely open-plan living space and has a wonderful sense of flow. Located in the heart of Southwark, its central location situates the apartment conveniently close to an array of restaurants, bars and some of London's most celebrated markets.

The apartment resides on the first floor and is accessed via intercom. Arguably, the most impressive space is the open-plan living and dining room which has exceptionally high ceilings and an abundance of light owing to a series of crittall windows. The expanse is defined by a number of characterful features including wooden beams, original metal columns and a glazed cargo door that opens up to a Juliette balcony. In the kitchen, London stock brick has been exposed and hints at the building industrial origins. Sleek white units have been topped with black worktops, offering plenty of storage while fuchsia paneling adds a bold splash of colour.

The bathroom has a pared-back aesthetic with uniform white tiles creating a feeling of airiness.

The two bedrooms, are peacefully located to the rear of the apartment. Both have large crittall windows that continue the play of light. Built-in floor to ceiling cabinetry has been introduced providing a good amount of storage.
