Set on a quiet garden square between Shoreditch and the City, this three-bedroom freehold home blends strong period character with central location benefits. High ceilings, original sash windows and decorative cornice give the reception areas immediate charm, while bi-fold doors open the living space to a west-facing rear garden. The house is arranged over lower ground, ground and two upper floors, offering clear family accommodation and scope to reconfigure internal layouts.
The property is Grade II listed; any works will require listed-building consent and may limit alterations and add cost. The fabric is traditional solid brick with assumed lack of cavity insulation; upgrading thermal performance and services should be anticipated. Double glazing was installed post-2002 and heating is mains-gas boiler and radiators.
Practical considerations: the plot and garden are small, council tax sits above average (Band E) and the local area records higher crime levels. On the positive side, transport links are strong — Whitechapel (Elizabeth Line) and Limehouse are nearby — and local amenities, green spaces and reputable schools make the location attractive for families or long-term owners.
For buyers looking to add value, the house offers refurbishment potential while retaining original detail. Investors should factor in listed-status constraints, likely refurbishment costs and local area factors when assessing returns. Overall, this is a characterful central-London house best suited to buyers who value period detail and a central location and who are prepared for listed-property ownership responsibilities.
