Once home to London’s Victorian cinnamon trade, esteemed London estate agency Anderson Rose has revealed a three-bedroom apartment at Cinnamon Wharf, on sale for £1,395,000. Located on the uber-cool riverside street, Shad Thames, the apartment at Cinnamon Wharf sits within an iconic building that has been spectacularly remodelled and refurbished by Conran Roche (now Conran & Partners) and benefits from breath-taking views across the London skyline.
Cinnamon Wharf was originally constructed in 1873 as part of a series of state-of-the-art, for the time, warehouses to store tea, coffee, spices, and other commodities, which gave the area its nickname of the ‘larder of London’. The area remained as such for the next 100 years with the final warehouse closing in 1972. In 1987, Conran Roche completed an extensive conversion and reconstruction of the warehouse building, which had been reconstructed in the 20th century, into a premium collection of residential apartments.
During the Industrial Revolution and when London was as the heights of powers in world trade, Cinnamon Wharf would have been London’s hub for cinnamon storage and distribution at that time. Used for both cooking and medicinal purposes, cinnamon was an important commodity in the late 19th Century with today’s residents of Shad Thames claiming to still smell the cinnamon from the building’s brickwork.
The apartment for sale via Anderson Rose at Cinnamon Wharf provides an incredible 1,500 sq. ft. of living space across three bedrooms, two bathrooms and open plan entertaining and dining space. Situated on the seventh floor of Cinnamon Wharf the apartment provides panoramic views across London from both picture windows and a private balcony.
Upon entering the apartment, residents will be met with a bright and inviting entrance hall leading to the open-plan dining and entertaining area. The large space comprises a kitchen, dining room and living area, all recently refurbished and finished to an exacting standard.
The state-of-the-art kitchen features unique brick-style tiling, bespoke light features, integrated appliances, over-lit cabinetry, and a breakfast bar. Adjacent to the kitchen area is the formal dining space complete with a dining table which can sit at least six guests. This looks onto the living area where residents will benefit from direct access to the apartment’s private balcony, ideal for al-fresco dining or entertaining with incredible views across the London skyline.
The three bedrooms at Cinnamon Wharf have each been designed beautifully. All three double bedrooms provide ample storage with built-in wardrobes and are adorned with natural light coming from the West facing picture windows. The two guest bedrooms share a family bathroom, with bathtub, whilst the principal bedroom enjoys an en-suite bathroom.
Owners of the Cinnamon Wharf apartment will also enjoy the resident’s communal rooftop garden which spans the width of the entire building and provides seating and dining space. The views from the rooftop are incredible with aspects to the River, the City and Canary Wharf. Residents will also benefit from a parking space in the building’s secure underground garage, security and a 24-hour concierge.
Robin Chalk, Head of Anderson Rose’s Tower Bridge office, commented: “Cinnamon Wharf is a fascinating part of London’s industrial history. Once an integral part of the Victorian spice trade, the apartment now sits within an iconic building designed by multi-award-winning design house Conran Roche (Conran & Partners).
“Owners of the three-bedroom apartment will be able to enjoy both the beautifully designed and recently refurbished home as well as the amenities and lifestyle on offer in Shad Thames and the surrounding area. This apartment is perfect for a couple of young family looking to own a spacious London apartment within a secure building in a fantastic area.”
Cinnamon Wharf is in the heart of London just moments from Tower bridge and the ample shops, restaurants and café dotted along the waterfront. Residents will enjoy all London has to offer at their fingertips with places such as Borough Market and Bermondsey Street within walking distance. The area is incredibly well-connected with several bus routes and tube lines close by.
