Description
A rare opportunity to rent a characterful ground-floor studio space in one of London's last surviving artisan workshop yards.
I have available a self-contained room, 12ft ceilings. It’s approximately 250sq/ft with shared use of the 80sq/ft kitchen, shower & loo, all within the beautifully preserved Victorian cobbled mews of Iliffe Yard on the Pullens Estate.
I’ve leased 3 units in the Yard since 1993. This is one of two ground-floor rooms. Available for the first time since February 2022.
I'm passionate about keeping the Yards alive as a working creative community, and would love to see this space used as a craft workshop or artist's studio. The room is currently occupied by an artist until late October. Has been used by up to 5 people in the past. All of the furniture can be moved or removed to suit your needs.
Ideal for: jewellers, weavers, tailors, artists, printmakers, ceramicists, designers, illustrators, photographers, or similar small creative businesses.
Why Iliffe Yard?
❇️ Historic character - Exposed brick, cobblestones and 12ft Victorian ceilings
❇️ Creative neighbours - An established community of makers and small creative businesses
❇️ Open Studios - Twice a year the yard opens to the public for selling and showcasing work
❇️ Central South London - Five minutes from Kennington tube and Elephant & Castle (tube & Thameslink)
❇️ Secure 24/7 access - Wrought iron gates locked evenings and weekends.
❇️ High 12ft ceilings
❇️. Shared kitchen, loo and shower
The Wider Building
The ground-floor studio sits beneath a thriving upstairs workspace. The first floor houses a spacious 1,200 sq ft open-plan studio shared by a small company and a crew of freelancers - plus a pool table. It's a friendly, creative environment - if you're taking the ground-floor room, you'll have like-minded neighbours above rather than an empty building. The upstairs studio also benefits from a brand new kitchen, central heating and an indoor loo.
What's Included
£1,250 pcm, fully inclusive of rent, business rates, gas, electricity, 400mb fibre broadband and a weekly cleaner. No VAT payable. Terms are one month's deposit plus one month in advance, with three months' notice either way.
The Location
Kennington tube is one stop from Waterloo. Elephant & Castle tube and Thameslink are equally close, with buses on the doorstep. Borough Market and the South Bank are just a mile away. The Electric Elephant café is right next door and Kennington's pubs and restaurants are a short walk.
Please note: This is not a live/work space and is not suitable for music production or very noisy industrial processes.
