Description

Situated within a private gated terrace of Georgian townhouses, this Grade II listed property offers a two/three bedroom layout across three levels, encompassing approximately 870 sqft (81 sqm) of internal space. The home showcases classic East London architectural features such as original brickwork and traditional sash windows, maintaining a sense of historical charm. While the property is in need of refurbishment, it presents an excellent opportunity for buyers to personalize the living space according to modern tastes. The ground floor welcomes you with a panelled hallway that leads to a south-facing reception room and a bathroom, which could be reconfigured into an open-plan reception area ideal for entertaining. Sliding doors provide access to a private patio garden—a rare find—offering both outdoor space and a unique view of the flat-backed terrace at Walden Street, preserved amidst historical changes post-WWII. The lower ground floor features a fitted kitchen and an additional reception area that can serve various purposes such as dining or lounging. On the first floor, there are two generously sized double bedrooms complemented by two bathrooms along the hall. Additionally, unlike some neighboring properties, this home does not have a mansard roof extension; therefore, there exists potential for upward expansion subject to planning permissions. This property invites visionary investors or homeowners eager to enhance its character while increasing value through thoughtful renovations.
