Property Not so flats

Details From C&A warehouse to fashionable penthouse - now that's a makeover. This 1930's building on the Regents Canal was converted six years ago, and the flats sold as shells. The owners of this maisonette went to town, fitting a quality German kitchen, beech floors and inventing a high-tech lighting system now sold as "FlexiDim". It measures 1,400 sq ft and has a 700 sq ft terrace on the north and east sides, overlooking the water, the City and much else besides - it's on the fifth and sixth floors. Only the bathroom and main bedroom are upstairs, making for a huge double-height living space on the floor below, which also has a double-bedroom, shower-room and kitchen. To complete the package, it has 24-hour porterage, a parking space.

Price - ?595,000, Thomson Currie, 020 7354 5224.
