An Historic Landmark

This flat is set within a striking historic building that once played a key role in Leeds’ industrial story. Originally built in 1889 as the Centaur Clothing Factory, the building was home to clothiers, hatmakers, and costume manufacturers during the city’s manufacturing peak. Its red brick façade, stone detailing, and strong industrial proportions reflect the confidence and craftsmanship of late Victorian design.

Today, that industrial heritage has been carefully adapted into modern city living. High ceilings and generous proportions hint at the building’s original purpose, while contemporary comforts make it a calm and practical place to stay. It’s a space where history and modern life sit comfortably side by side, offering character, atmosphere, and a genuine sense of place.
