A London Loft in a Former Victorian School Building

On the first floor of a converted Victorian school building in London lies a beautiful loft apartment with high ceilings, historical features, and contemporary interiors.

The focal point in the loft apartment is the original pine-encased arched glazing that pours light into the rooms. The historic structure of the apartment is paired with modern furnishings in a light color palette and natural materials. This blend of old and new turns this old school into an inviting home.

Through the front door, you immediately step into the grand living space, which has a solid oak Ecora parquet floor laid in a chevron pattern. The double-height ceiling turns a modest floor size into a grand space.

The living space is divided into a sitting area, a dining space, and the kitchen. The arched window above the kitchen is stripped back to the original pine frames.

The simple white kitchen cabinets are paired with brass knobs and a concrete worktop.

The loft space is turned into a beautiful sleeping loft with an arched window and a freestanding tub.

The bathroom has a beautiful bespoke walnut cabinet and Vola fixtures and fittings paired with wood look floor tiles and small black hexagon shower tiles.

The apartment is listed for £625,000 at The Modern House.
