A commanding Grade II‑listed three-bedroom Georgian townhouse on Mare Street, arranged over lower ground to second floors and offering 1,588 sq ft of living space. The house blends retained period features — high ceilings, sash windows, original fireplaces and wooden floors — with a contemporary Miele kitchen and flexible multi-level living for family life or rental return.
Practical benefits include two private off‑street parking spaces, a mature rear garden with bike storage, secondary glazing and fast broadband. The location is a strong local draw: 0.3 miles from Victoria Park and Broadway Market, and within easy reach of London Fields overground and Bethnal Green underground for central London links.
Important considerations: as a Grade II listed freehold property, any structural changes, insulation upgrades or significant alterations will require listed‑building consent and may limit refurbishment options. The building has solid brick walls with assumed no cavity insulation, so heating efficiency improvements will be constrained and could be costly. Council tax band is above average and the immediate area records above‑average crime levels.
This chain‑free house suits buyers seeking a substantial period family home in inner Hackney or investors targeting long‑let demand in a highly connected, amenity‑rich neighbourhood. The multi‑storey layout offers flexible rooms but may be unsuitable for mobility‑restricted occupants.
