A Grade II Listed Georgian mid-terrace on a quiet no-through road, this two-bedroom house combines period character with central Stepney convenience. Tall ceilings, original fireplaces and stripped floorboards deliver authentic charm across an unusually generous 954 sqft for the area, while a secluded south-facing garden offers rare outdoor privacy in the heart of East London.
The layout includes a double-through reception, modern kitchen/diner with utility, two double bedrooms and a four-piece bathroom. It is freehold and minutes from Stepney Green tube, placing the city and East London amenities within easy reach. Several well-rated primary and secondary schools lie nearby, supporting family use or long-term rental potential.
Buyers should note constraints from the Grade II listing and the conservation area — alterations will be restricted and may need listed-building consent. The roof is reported in need of repair and the solid brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation, which could mean higher heating costs and further works. Broadband speeds are average; mobile signal is excellent.
This property will suit someone seeking character and location who is prepared to manage listed-building requirements and targeted repairs. With sympathetic updating and listed-consent planning, it offers strong upside as a long-term home or a lettable central London asset.
