Britannia Lofts

Britannia Lofts in Old Street

Britannia Lofts offers 18 prestigious warehouse-style apartments located at 16-21 Banner Street, London EC1Y just a moment away from Old Street Station. The design marries the industrial heritage of the area, with architecture embodying historical warehouse proportions, and interiors defined by thoughtful materials, modern finishes and diligent detailing. The scheme provides the type of smart, design-led apartment London buyers might expect from a more standard development but which would be unique in the area.

The residences are designed then as loft-style homes with strong proportions, vast quantities of natural light, and bold architectural lines. Large bronzed Crittall-style windows are crucial to the façade and interior experience, flooding daylight into the apartments while echoing a warehouse language. The outcome is a residential environment that marries urban character, sensible layouts, and an elegant specification within one of the busy creative and technology hubs in London.

Apartments, Layouts, and Interior Design

Comprising one-, two, and three-bedroom apartments, the floor areas in the brochure are from approximately 608sq ft to 1,309 sq ft at Britannia Lofts. Some homes provide exquisitely large open-plan reception and kitchen space, separate study rooms or desk nooks, spacious bedrooms, with ceiling heights stretching to about 3.04m (Flat 1). Such layouts may work well for professionals, first-time purchasers, investors, or purchasers seeking to acquire sale opportunities in an extremely connected EC1 location.

Interiors are a mix of loft character and contemporary comfort. Features of the kitchens comprise unified matte cabinetry, high-specification Bosch appliances set into the cabinets, marble-effect quartz worktops and backsplashes, engineered light Scandi oak flooring, and architectural spotlights. They include brushed steel Nosa sanitaryware, vanity units, heated towel rails, white sanitaryware, and microcement wall and floor finishes. A follow-up photo review or visit will allow clients to evaluate proportions, light, finishes, and views.

Britannia Lofts aren't finished yet, so they will be gauged by apartment size, floor level, specification (inside finishes), outside space (balconies), if any whether or not the building has a concierge, as well as expected service charges and lease term cut styles in addition to the final price. The property promises a unique loft-inspired design, connectivity at the heart of EC1Y, and boutique scale for clients searching for new homes in EC1Y. It would be an ideal project for someone who loves character, natural light, high ceilings, and Old Street, Barbican, Moorgate, and the City on your doorstep.
