Perched on the iconic Arnold Circus, this two-bedroom apartment is a creative sanctuary in the heart of East London. Brimming with character, its eclectic interiors reflect the artistic energy of Shoreditch, with curated artwork, bold accents and thoughtful details throughout. Ideal for culture lovers, the space is just moments from Redchurch Street, Boxpark, and Shoreditch House. We love that it has a small office nook that’s perfect for remote working and creative journalling. So, whether you're here to explore or work, it offers the perfect base to live like a local in London’s coolest quarter.

Home truths
There's no lift here. You'll need to be able to climb stairs to reach the entrance of the home on the second floor.
The decor is eclectic and full of personality – ideal for creatives, but perhaps not for those seeking minimalist design.
Parking in London can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to easily accessible public transport where possible. Shoreditch High Street is just a 5-minute walk away.
At full occupancy, one guest will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the second bedroom.
