Rosebery Avenue - more details revealed

Londonewcastle

Another visit to 62-68 Rosebery Avenue and a few more shots of the development - a more revealing picture of the front shows how the mature canopy of trees gives privacy from the hustle of Rosebery Avenue below, without impacting the views from the 3rd and 4th floors. This shot also shows how well connected the scheme is - with new Routemaster buses scurrying about between Islington and the West End (the 38 route shown actually ends in Victoria).

The views from the roof terraces on the other / South side of the building aren’t too bad either - the image below is the actual view from Apartment 3 - with the barbican and city towers on one side of the trees in Spa Fields Park, with The Shard and St Paul’s on the other.

A panoramic shot crowns this post off. Hope you like - if you are interested don’t delay as we have received genuine interest since the launch on 11 June.

Londonewcastle

Works are coming to a completion at our new development in Clerkenwell - situated off the perennially attractive Exmouth Market. Th shots below give a glimpse of what buyers can expect from the 4 luxury duplex penthouse apartments within.

The architects - Macdowell + Benedetti have done a fantastic job on the external appearance of the building - retaining the historic facade while bringing it bang up to date with refurbished and new windows and frames in gloss black that really complement the brickwork.

Internally, an expressive materials palette has been used by interior designers The Sheldon Studio, including cracked bronze feature panels that connect the kitchen and living/ dining areas.

The apartments, priced from £1.375m, are available for viewing now through our joint sole agents Hurford Salvi Carr 020 7250 1012 and Pilcher Hershman 020 7399 8600.

Londonewcastle

A teaser video produced by creative agency Tom Hingston Studio that riffs on the identity they cleverly conceived for our new residential development in Clerkenwell, which is inspired by the eclectic signage and typography found in the local, vibrant area around Exmouth Market.

The development of four duplex penthouses launches in June-2014 and features interios by The Sheldon Studio, bespoke high specification finishes and fantastic AV installed - not to mention the video installation in the lifts by New York-based artist Marco Brambilla. Read about the piece here.

62-68 Rosebery Avenue takes shape

Peter A

A recent site visit to our new boutique development on Rosebery Avenue, just off Exmouth Market, revealed work is continuing at a pace for a proposed completion in early-May.

The new roof is on and the apartments are being formed on the inside. No windows in yet, but the openings look big and the view from the south-facing roof terraces towards St Paul’s and the city’s new skyscrapers (The Shard, Cheesegrater, walkie-talkie etc as well as icons like 201 Broadgate and the Barbican) is a view that no lover of London will ever tire of.

No launch date or pricing as yet. More information here.

Clerkenwell residents to benefit from Marco Brambilla installation

Londonewcastle

Residents of the soon to be available Rosebery Avenue development in Clerkenwell will benefit from a piece by world renowned contemporary artist Marco Brambilla.

Following his piece ‘Heaven & Hell’ that can be experienced in the lifts of The Standard Hotel in NYC’s meat-packing district, Londonewcastle and The Third Quarter have procured a new piece from artist - in his first ever UK project - entitled ‘Materialization/ De-materialization’.

A still from Marco Brambilla’s ‘Materialization/De-materialization’.

This is a sneak preview for those not fortunate enough to snap up one of the interior-designed duplex penthouse apartments available in Spring 2014.
