2 bed flat for sale

Minstrel Court, London E2

"Double-height ceilings and soaring windows define the main living space to dramatic effect"

This thoughtfully crafted apartment is set within Minstrel Court, on Teesdale Close in east London. Arranged across a ground floor and mezzanine, the interiors combine considered contemporary detailing with rich texture from a refined material palette. Tall arched windows draw natural light across the open-plan reception and kitchen, adding to the sense of volume. The location is exceptional, set between Haggerston Park, Columbia Road and Broadway Market.

The Tour

The entrance opens onto a reception hall that leads to the generous reception room, where the proportions are immediately apparent. A full-height, bespoke birch plywood bookcase with integrated lighting occupies one wall, one of the apartment’s many handcrafted features, lending the space a strong architectural presence. A built-in Richlite bench runs its length and incorporates large storage drawers, storage being an important consideration throughout the apartment. Beneath it, the herringbone parquet adds warmth and original detail, continuing through the living and dining areas.

The kitchen is set along the opposite wall, its dark, handleless Richlite cabinetry finely detailed with slim plywood accents. Integrated appliances and a restrained palette keep the finish clean, while the whitewashed walls and tall windows bring a softer counterpoint to the darker joinery. The open-plan arrangement accommodates both relaxing and entertaining, with a large dining table positioned alongside the library.

Two bedrooms are arranged off the entrance hall, joined by a short set of steps with a clever incorporated slide and a built-in laundry cupboard. The principal bedroom is framed by a large south-facing window and fitted with a bank of custom-made plywood cupboards. The second bedroom / office is directly adjacent and has a built-in desk and mezzanine above; the latter is reached by its own staircase and provides a versatile space for reading or guest sleeping.

The bathroom and additional storage are also accessed from this hallway. The bathroom has a walk-in shower and vibrant blue tiling.

The Area

Teesdale Close is a quiet, tree-lined cul-de-sac. A short stroll leads to the iconic Sunday floral displays of Columbia Road Flower Market, as well as the bustling eateries, independent boutiques, and bakeries of Broadway Market and Victoria Park Village.

Green space is abundant, with the vast expanse of Victoria Park, Haggerston park, and the leafy trails along Regent's Canal just moments away.
