Ben Butler, Head of Sales in Canary Wharf, says, “This former pub is brimming with charm and has a wonderfully rich history—if only walls could talk. Originally converted into two flats in 2013, then reimagined as an art space and gallery, this home offers an exceptional sense of space and is flooded with natural light.
Spanning two floors with an impressive central void, the property has a genuine ‘wow’ factor and a sense of grandeur rarely found in this part of the city. The current owner re-designed the space focusing on geometry and even includes a hanging DJ desk – something I’ve not seen before.
With its flexible layout, this home is ideal for those looking to pursue creative passions from home, whether it’s creating music, displaying art and photography, or practising Pilates. The garden also provides a perfect setting for entertaining friends and family in the warmer months.
Situated in a primarily residential area on the Isle of Dogs, the property enjoys a balanced location, equidistant from the River Thames and the greenery of Mudchute Park. And with a short commute to Canary Wharf, the financial district, and even Greenwich via the foot tunnel, it offers both tranquillity and convenience.”
