Sunlight Square, Bethnal Green E2

Located in the heart of East London, Sunlight Square offers a rare opportunity to own a truly unique and character-filled apartment.

Originally a 19th-century industrial building, the development retains many of its original architectural features. This exceptional two-bedroom apartment is a stunning example of industrial conversion, boasting 2.62-meter-high ceilings throughout and an abundance of natural light, creating an expansive and airy atmosphere.

Historically, Sunlight Square was home to the Sunlight Laundry, part of Lever Brothers’ pioneering approach to public health through industrial-scale laundry services. With the widespread adoption of home washing machines, the laundry was eventually closed, but the building’s generous proportions, large windows, and high ceilings, originally designed for ventilation and worker well-being, made it an ideal candidate for residential conversion in the 1990s. Today, it stands as a testament to London’s industrial heritage, transformed into a stylish and desirable residential development.

Spanning an impressive 925 square feet, this top-floor apartment offers a bright and spacious living experience. A defining feature of the home is its seven large, triple-aspect windows, flooding the interiors with natural light and enhancing the sense of openness throughout.

The open-plan kitchen is thoughtfully designed to feel distinct from the main living area, providing both practicality and a natural sense of zoning. Recently refurbished, the bathroom complements the fresh, modern feel of the apartment.

The property features two generously sized bedrooms, a large living space, and a convenient office nook, perfect for working from home. An allocated parking space adds to the appeal, ensuring convenience and ease of access.

Sunlight Square itself is a secure gated development offering a range of amenities, including an on-site concierge service from Monday to Friday and allocated parking for residents. The communal courtyard garden provides a charming outdoor space, further enhancing the appeal of this well-maintained and sought-after community.

The apartment also benefits from excellent transport links. It is located just a few minutes’ walk from the Central Line, with Liverpool Street Station only a few minutes away. The area is also served by two Overground stations and extensive bus routes providing direct access to Central London. For international travel, a Stansted Airport bus stop is located just a short walk away, while London City Airport is also easily accessible. Additionally, the Elizabeth Line to Heathrow is within easy reach, ensuring quick and convenient access to the airport.
