2 bed flat for sale

Lexington Building, Bow E3

Occupying a pond facing second-floor position within the Lexington Building (1909–1910), this characterful two-bedroom warehouse apartment extends to approximately 849 sq ft and retains the bold proportions synonymous with Bow Quarter’s industrial heritage.

Formerly part of the Bryant and May match factory, the seven-acre estate was sensitively redeveloped in the late 1980s by Kentish Homes in collaboration with orms Architects, establishing what remains one of East London’s most successful early regeneration projects. Original brick façades, landscaped courtyards and a strong architectural identity continue to define the development today.

The apartment centres around a dramatic double-height reception space with ceiling heights exceeding four metres. Large factory-style windows span almost the full width of the room, drawing in consistent natural light and reinforcing the building’s industrial character. Solid wood flooring runs throughout with the fully integrated kitchen positioned just off the hallway.

The main bedroom is located on the main level and is notably generous in scale. Accessed via two entry points with stairs leading to a mezzanine bedroom, this space can be used as a dining area or a second living space or be kept as a bedroom dependent on the required needs. A contemporary bathroom is also arranged on this floor.

A second double bedroom with the en suite and generous storage is positioned on the mezzanine, galleried above the reception space and benefiting from borrowed light and visual connection to the volume below, a layout well suited to guests, workspace or studio use.

The apartment is offered chain free and includes an allocated parking space.

Residents of Bow Quarter enjoy access to a comprehensive range of amenities including a gym, swimming pool, jacuzzi and sauna, landscaped communal gardens and terraces, on-site supermarket, parcel collection service and 24-hour concierge.

For transport, Bow Church DLR station and Bow Road Underground station are within walking distance, providing swift connections to Canary Wharf, the City and the West End.
