The property forms part of the disused former South Kentish Town London Underground Station, which was designed by Leslie Green and characterised by the red glazed terracotta elevations typical of all the stations he designed. The station opened in 1907 and closed after only 17 years due to low passenger usage. During the Blitz of the Second World War the station was used as an air-raid shelter.
The property comprises a unique space situated directly above the station platform at the lower ground floor level, accessed via its own entrance at pavement level on Kentish Town Road. Arranged around original two 7m (23 ft) and one 5.48m (18ft) diameter lift-shafts, the property provides a quirky layout and benefits from air conditioning, 4 showers, a steam room, sauna, WC. The premises were previously occupied by a health club operator.
