Set in the super-central Victoria neighborhood, the recently-launched 17-residence project gives new life to a retired Grade II fire station originally built back in 1906.
Set in the heart of the British capital’s historic—and super-central—Victoria neighborhood, the recently launched 17-residence project gives new life to a retired Grade II fire station originally built back in 1906. With its imposing Baroque exterior, the original fire station sat at the heart of the Victoria community and was part of London’s storied firefighting history until it closed in 2014.
The new project is split into two distinctive—yet wholly integrated—wings accessed by a central lobby and connected by an elegantly landscaped communal courtyard. The first, known as the “Fire Station” is a sensitive restoration of the original building featuring six apartments, while the second—the “Station House”—is an entirely new-build addition with 11 more residences designed by London-based
The project launches now with its first residence, a two-bedroom unit that has recently come to market. The home—which includes two bathrooms as well as a pair of living rooms—is set in the original Fire Station on the first floor and spans just under 1,500 square feet. Oak-plank and parquet floors set a cool tone for the living and sleeping quarters, while the baths come tiled in either ceramic or Calacatta Viola marble.
