French Place E1

This Victorian live/work warehouse is one of the last remaining unmodernised freeholds in Shoreditch. The days of discovering untouched East London warehouses brimming with raw character have all but disappeared, making this a rare gem in today’s modernised landscape. Never before been available on the open market there is a window of opportunity to purchase the building.

Nestled between Shoreditch High Street and Curtain Road and spanning approximately 2,286 sqft over three floors this near standalone building sits prominently on the corner of Batemans Row.

Inside, it retains a unique, part self-built character—including an internal iron security gate. The ground floor, once an entertainment space, boasts a log burner and a custom-built bar, while the first floor has a hand-built, open-plan kitchen and living area. The third floor houses the bedrooms, and the roof terrace offers south-facing views directly towards the City’s skyline, with iconic landmarks beautifully visible day or night. The building’s original charm remains intact, from the floorboards and brickwork to the loading doors and façade.
