A former wood turning factory that’s something of a rough diamond, undergoing a thorough polishing. The space has been hidden away and rarely seen for something approaching 27 years but under the watchful guidance of German designer, Matthias Felsch and sculptor, Jeff Lowe, the space will yield three residential and restored homes with an industrial style.

These apartments at Mitre Mews form part of a bigger development made up of five other houses that all enjoy a secure gated entrance, courtyard areas and cycle storage. 

There’s an understated elegance about this apartment. The new floor to be added across the top level of the building will be sleek and minimal, making full use of the light from the roof lights in the vaulted ceilings. 

At just over 1150 Sq Ft, there’s a generosity to this space. From the main entrance in the mews a newly installed exterior staircase leads to a private front door. The entrance opens into a voluminous kitchen and dining area with double height ceilings and a staircase to the mezzanine level that leads through the rest of the apartment.

The interior styling will be in keeping with the main building. The two double bedrooms & bathroom on this floor will incorporate earthy hues in the decoration plan. At the back of the apartment and accessed via a set of bi-fold doors is a superb completely private terrace area.

Hither Green has enjoyed a very positive transformation over recent years. From the artisan coffee shops and bakers on Hither Green Lane which is a few minutes on foot, or crossing the railway into the village-like setting with its restaurants and The Station Hotel, a super pub with excellent food. All of these elements contribute to the genuine community feel of the area.

Transport links are excellent, from the main railway station just a four minute walk away you can be in London Bridge in one stop or head to New Cross for the London Overline to Shoreditch and Dalston or Lewisham and take the DLR to Bank or Stratford.
