A substantial three-bedroom Victorian terraced house offering 1,287 sq ft (including cellar) on a tree-lined Hackney street. The house retains period character – double bay windows, high ceilings and two reception rooms – and comes with a long 43-ft private rear garden and a useful front garden. The property has gas central heating, double glazing and an original coal cellar turned storage. It has been in the same ownership for over 30 years and is currently let.
This is a straightforward refurbishment and improvement opportunity for an investor or buyer seeking space and character close to excellent local amenities and transport. The layout includes two receptions, a large kitchen-diner with a bay, three first-floor bedrooms and one bathroom. The cellar and garden shed (former external WC) add practical storage. The boiler is located in the kitchen.
Material points: the house is in good but basic condition and needs renovation and modernising to reach contemporary living standards. The walls are solid brick with no assumed cavity insulation. The property is currently tenanted; tenants are entitled to two months’ notice at the appropriate time and expect building works at their home to finish around October–November 2025. Crime levels are above average and the surrounding area registers as deprived in parts, which prospective buyers should weigh against Hackney’s strong transport links, schools and local amenities.
This freehold, chain-free offering will suit buyers wanting a period family home to update, or investors looking for a value-add project in a popular East London location. Viewings will be arranged by appointment; purchasers should allow for renovation costs and the tenancy notice process when planning occupation.
