Summary - BOW BROOK HOUSE FLAT 16 GATHORNE STREET LONDON E2 0PW
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Spacious 2-bed duplex in a converted Victorian school with parking and roof terrace.
Approximately 1,309 sq ft duplex with double-height reception
Set within an impressive Victorian school conversion, this duplex two-bedroom flat offers striking double-height windows, exposed brick and a mezzanine kitchen that maximises light and space. At approximately 1,309 sq ft, the accommodation feels far larger than a typical city flat, with a double-volume reception room ideal for entertaining or flexible work-from-home arrangements.
Practical positives include gated off-street parking, a long lease (share of freehold with c.956 years remaining), and access to a communal roof terrace with vegetable patch and barbecue space. Modern comforts such as double glazing, mains gas central heating and fast broadband-ready connectivity suit everyday city living.
Buyers should note the service charge is high (£5,454) and the building’s solid brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation, which can affect running costs. There is a single bathroom for two bedrooms and the property sits in an inner-city area classed as deprived — factors to weigh for families or long-term owner-occupiers.
This home will suit buyers who value unique period character and generous internal volume in Bethnal Green — ideal for those seeking a distinctive, light-filled residence with scope to personalise rather than a turnkey suburban flat.
