Jam Factory Green Walk, London, SE1

Situated in the highly regarded Jam Factory, this large contemporary apartment spans approximately 1,196 sq ft within one of London’s most celebrated industrial conversions. Originally built in 1902 and converted in 2003 by Simpson Haugh Architects, the building retains a strong architectural character while offering modern living in a gated development with concierge security.

The apartment is arranged around a generous open-plan living, dining, and kitchen space, featuring polished limestone flooring, exposed brickwork, and an original industrial steel pillar, reinforcing the building’s industrial heritage while adding striking design elements. Large dual-aspect industrial-style sash windows flood the living area with natural light, offering westerly views and creating a strong sense of scale.

The kitchen is partly open-plan and includes white cabinetry, hardwood worktops, and an island with a breakfast bar, equipped with integrated appliances. Hardwood flooring extends through the entrance hall leading to two well-proportioned double bedrooms, both with fitted wardrobes and exposed brick walls. The principal bedroom benefits from a private balcony. Both bedrooms are served by a separate bathroom, one with a bath and overhead shower, and the other with a shower. Both bathrooms are finished to a high modern specification and feature limestone flooring, enhancing the industrial feel while offering a clean, minimalist aesthetic. The apartment benefits from underfloor heating throughout.

A secure parking space is included, offering additional convenience. The property is situated within a secure development with lift access.

The Jam Factory is known for its beautifully landscaped communal gardens, long leases, super-fast fibre broadband, and a close-knit community. Set just off Bermondsey Street, the development is ideally positioned for independent restaurants, cafes, galleries, and design studios, including White Cube and the Fashion and Textile Museum. Borough Market, Maltby Street Market, the South Bank, and the River Thames are all within easy walking distance.

In addition to the vibrant local scene, Bermondsey Square hosts free weekly jazz concerts during the summer months. Nearby facilities include free tennis courts, gyms, and personal training studios. Green spaces such as Bermondsey Spa Gardens, Mint Street Park, and riverside walks towards Shad Thames and Tower Bridge are also nearby. Several universities, including King’s College London, London South Bank University, and University of the Arts London, are within easy reach.

Transport links are excellent, with Borough, London Bridge, and Elephant and Castle stations all nearby, providing access to the Northern, Jubilee, and Bakerloo lines, as well as National Rail services. The apartment offers a perfect balance of scale, privacy, and history in a central SE1 location.

The Jam Factory itself has a rich history. Built between 1899 and 1901 by Sir William Pickles Hartley, founder of Hartley’s jam, the factory quickly became the country’s largest jam producer. After production ceased in 1962, the site was used as a distribution depot until it was redeveloped in the early 2000s. The conversion preserved the original fabric of the buildings while introducing modern apartments, live/work spaces, and limited contemporary additions such as setback glazed penthouses.
