Architect Sir Terry Farrell is selling the St John’s Wood penthouse he designed through Arlington Residential for £2.5 million.

It sits at the top of the Old Aeroworks, an Art Deco former aircraft factory where wheels, tyres, brakes and gun turrets were produced for wartime aircraft including Spitfires and Lancaster bombers.

Farrell, whose projects include the MI6 HQ and redeveloped Charing Cross station, has put his own twist on the apartment which is arranged principally over one level and approached by a striking industrial-style staircase.

The space is split into ‘zones’ under a high pitched corrugated-steel roof with skylights and separated in part by concertina doors.

A chance to invest in a real design feat.
