A stunning Grade II listed Victorian mezzanine apartment, situated within the historical confines of a 1900s pump house in Canada Water, is now available to purchase. On offer through Anderson Rose for £1.4m, the 1,728 sq ft property is a testament to harmonising vintage charm with contemporary comfort.

Originally repurposed into a residence in 2000, the apartment at The Pump House boasts its original brick aesthetics combined with oak parquet floors. Significant enhancements by the current owners have brought forward features like large windows, ensuring lots of daylight, and original steel beams that echo the building's rich heritage.

A major highlight in this home includes the addition of a decorative, cast-iron mezzanine that adds an extra 250 sq ft to the living space. This elevated area now has a classy copper bar set-up complete with leather armchairs, a piano, and a stairway with concealed storage.

The kitchen area, positioned directly beneath, is separated from the living space with an expansive island. Its design is further accentuated by bespoke encaustic tiles, mirroring the metallic patterns of the mezzanine.

The open-plan design of the apartment ensures versatility, accommodating a large dining and lounge space, a mezzanine study area, two expansive bedrooms, a dedicated gym room, and two top-tier bathrooms complete the interior offering. The primary bedroom suite is set amidst the remnants of the old engine room, supported by imposing steel beams.

Robin Chalk, Sales Manager at Anderson Rose, commented: “This is a truly stunning apartment that has been further enhanced by the current owners. Abounding with original parts and features, that were once a crucial part of the original pump house, the home has a genuine industrial style that makes it so unique and attractive. 

“Due to the excellent location and transport links from the nearby Canada Water station, this is the perfect property for a single professional or young couple that are looking for a cool and notable place to live.” 

Constructed in 1902 by the London Hydraulic Power Company, The building was pivotal in supplying hydraulic power across London. Characterised by its colossal iron beams, arched windows, and signature octagonal chimney – all of which remain intact – the Pump House stands as an emblem of Victorian engineering prowess.

Operations at the LHP Company ceased in 1977, post which the network transitioned to serve telecom needs.

Besides its historical and architectural appeal, the property promises convenience with private parking facilities. It is close to the Canada Water and Rotherhithe stations.
