“A perfect setting for entertaining, where banks of glazing cast generous levels of natural light over a large living space”
This light-filled two-bedroom lateral apartment occupies the first floor of a former Victorian warehouse on Great Sutton Street in Clerkenwell. The owners have sensitively finished the interior to a very high standard; sleek surfaces and open-plan living spaces maximise the light that flows through extensive fenestration. Constructed in 1895, the impressive and striking façade of bare brickwork and tall windows is evocative of the period and the building's former use. For more information, please see the History section below.
History
The land that is now Great Sutton Street formed part of the Charterhouse, a Carthusian priory founded in 1371 and originally comprising kitchen gardens and orchards.
The warehouse at 17-18 Great Sutton Street was built by the Perry Brothers in 1895 and originally housed several small businesses, including a water glider, a stylo pen maker and a corset maker.
Between 1914 and 1918, Robert Pringle & Sons expanded their premises to Wilderness Works and moved into 17-18 Great Sutton Street. The company produced an increasingly wide range of products, including watches, clocks, fancy silver goods, glassware, electroplated goods and optical items for domestic customers and export.
