Set within Bow’s Medway Conservation Area, this sensitively restored Victorian terraced house blends original period detail with contemporary interventions. The ground floor’s open-plan living, dining and kitchen space benefits from large sash windows, high ceilings and concertina doors that fold out to a south-facing terracotta-tiled patio — an appealing indoor/outdoor arrangement for family life and entertaining.
Three double bedrooms occupy the first floor; the principal bedroom retains round-headed sash windows and built-in joinery. The house has been newly renovated throughout with a warm, restrained palette, modern kitchen fittings and a refurbished bathroom with quality finishes. Practical touches include double glazing (post-2002), mains gas central heating and good broadband and mobile signal in the area.
Buyers should note material local factors: the neighbourhood records above-average crime and sits within an area classified as deprived. The property is a solid-brick Victorian build with no assumed cavity insulation, so further insulation works could be required. There is a single bathroom serving three double bedrooms and council tax is above average (Band E).
This freehold mid-terrace will suit families seeking a characterful home near parks, galleries and good transport links, or investors wanting a well-presented rental in a highly connected east London location. The large plot and generous living footprint also offer scope for further adaptation subject to conservation constraints.
