Timing
Long-Term Hold
Originally a Victorian warehouse used in the meat industry, number 300 sits on the junction between Rawstorne Street and the tree-lined St John Street in Islington.
Before it was acquired by Sterling in 2012, it had become dilapidated and required a full renovation to create a striking company headquarters. Working with Stiff + Trevillion Architects, the building was brought up to a high-quality specification while preserving the building’s original fabric.
High ceilings bring a sense of space and light, while cast-iron colours and Critall-style windows give the building a considered, crafted feel. The new communal courtyard, added to the rear, offers a flexible space for work or leisure.
Part of Sterling’s long-term rental portfolio, the offices are offered with inclusive service as well as fitted and furnished options. The building is now let on a floor-by-floor basis, providing the smaller footprints that many businesses running modern hybrid-working models look for.
Number 300 is located within walking distance of Angel and Farringdon stations, and the vibrant, independent shops, bars and restaurants of Upper Street and Exmouth Market. This quiet corner location balances old and new, peace and accessibility in one of the capital’s most characterful and well-connected neighbourhoods.
