A substantial double freehold spanning six floors and about 6,171 sqft near Aldgate East, offered as a rare City‑fringe redevelopment or income opportunity. The building retains period character, high ceilings and good natural light, with lift access to all levels and a private garden — unusual for a central London terrace.
The property sits 500m from Aldgate East station and benefits from strong local amenities, significant footfall and clear unitisation or Class E potential (STPP). For an investor or developer, the footprint and street presence support conversion into multiple flats or continued mixed commercial/residential use, subject to consent.
Important considerations: the local area records very high crime levels and the building reports very slow broadband speeds. The plot is compact with no significant private external space beyond a small garden. Any conversion or new use will require planning and likely refurbishment to meet modern standards, including services and connectivity upgrades.
This is a clear development/investment play for a buyer prepared to manage urban constraints. The asset offers scale, location and character — trading on proximity to the City and popular neighbourhoods — but it requires hands-on capital and discretionary planning work.
