A beautifully presented twobedroom apartment with secure parking in the iconic Grade II* listed New River Head development, moments from Angel, Exmouth Market and Sadler’s Wells.
Set within the historic Grade II listed New River Head, one of Clerkenwell’s most architecturally significant residential conversions; this beautifully arranged two bedroom, one bathroom apartment offers refined living in a truly prestigious setting. The building, formerly the headquarters of the Metropolitan Water Board (constructed between 1915–1920), combines grand original architectural features with modern luxury.
Residents of New River Head benefit from an impressive suite of amenities, including a 24hour concierge, a wellequipped residents’ gym, vast landscaped communal gardens, and access to the magnificent Oak Room, a historic function space retained from the original Edwardian building. The development also offers secure, gated parking, with this apartment benefiting from its own allocated space; an exceptional advantage in such a central location.
Typical apartments within the development feature well-proportioned rooms, generous ceiling heights and strong natural light. Twobedroom homes here commonly provide a separate or semiopen kitchen, a spacious living/dining area, and peaceful bedroom accommodation; suited perfectly to professionals, couples, or those seeking a high quality London base in a landmark building. The setting is tranquil yet superbly connected, balancing privacy with proximity to the city’s finest amenities.
Living at New River Head means enjoying the elegance of a historic estate alongside the convenience of modern city life. With the City, West End and major transport hubs all within easy reach, this apartment offers a rare opportunity to reside in one of London’s most admired developments.
New River Head occupies a prime position on Rosebery Avenue in Clerkenwell, immediately adjacent to Sadler’s Wells Theatre and within walking distance of Angel, Upper Street, Farringdon and King’s Cross. The development benefits from superb transport connections, including Angel Underground (Northern Line) and Farringdon Station (Elizabeth Line, Underground & National Rail), placing the City and West End within quick reach.
The surrounding area offers an exceptional lifestyle, with Exmouth Market’s cafés, independent shops and restaurants just across the street, and fashionable Upper Street close by. Residents enjoy access to cultural landmarks, vibrant dining scenes, and convenient bus routes directly outside the building, ensuring excellent connectivity throughout central London
