Arlington Building, Bow, E3

Nestled within the historic Bow Quarter development, this remarkable three-bedroom, two-bathroom duplex warehouse apartment is a great opportunity to own a slice of East London’s rich industrial heritage.

Once the site of the famed Bryant and May match factory, this vast seven-acre estate has been thoughtfully reimagined into a vibrant residential community. The Bow Quarter, one of East London’s pioneering regeneration projects, seamlessly blends Victorian architecture with contemporary urban living, offering residents a unique sanctuary in the heart of the city.

The Arlington Building, where this apartment is situated, was originally constructed in 1874 as an administrative office for the bustling factories behind it. Today, it stands as a testament to the area's enduring character, combining original industrial elements with modern design. This apartment is being introduced to the sales market for the first time in twenty years, reflecting both its enduring appeal and the current owner's long-term satisfaction with the development.

The current owners have taken great care in refurbishing the space, crafting a home that is as comfortable as it is visually striking. Spanning 1,032 square feet, the accommodation unfolds with an open-plan reception area, where soaring double-height ceilings, reaching an impressive 4.26 meters at their highest point, create a grand sense of scale. Expansive factory windows bathe the interiors in natural light, emphasizing the beauty of the building’s industrial past while maintaining an inviting and functional atmosphere.

The thoughtfully designed kitchen integrates seamlessly into the living space, fostering an open and sociable environment. The three double bedrooms, two of which are located on a closed-off mezzanine floor, offer a sense of privacy while maintaining a connection to the dynamic volume of the apartment. Each space has been meticulously curated to balance aesthetics with practicality, making this home an ideal retreat from the fast pace of city life.

Living in Bow Quarter is an experience in itself, with an array of on-site amenities that rival some of London’s most exclusive developments. Residents enjoy on-site caffe, a fully equipped gym, a swimming pool with jacuzzi and sauna facilities, and beautifully landscaped communal gardens and terraces. A 24-hour concierge team ensures convenience and security, while a dedicated parcel collection office and an exceptionally well-stocked supermarket, complete with a unique product request service, enhance the everyday experience of living in this iconic setting.

Beyond its immediate offerings, Bow Quarter is superbly connected to the rest of London. Bow Church (DLR) and Bow Road (District and Hammersmith & City lines) stations are both just a short walk away, providing effortless access to Canary Wharf, the City, and the West End in under 30 minutes. This exceptional transport connectivity makes the apartment an attractive proposition for professionals seeking a stylish and convenient urban base. Victoria Park and Olympic Park in Stratford are also a short walk away connecting the development to East London's arguably best open spaces.
