If you lived here...

You’ll love the character and considered design of this 870 square foot home; period details have been beautifully complemented by a carefully chosen palette, bespoke carpentry and vintage-inspired finishes, creating a home that feels both elegant and welcoming.

At the front, the double-reception room is wonderfully spacious. Natural light pours in through the sash windows (decked out in stylish shutters), while the fireplace, ceiling rose and original-style detailing bring plenty of charm. Bespoke carpentry makes clever use of the space, with column radiators adding to the considered finish.

To the rear, the kitchen has been designed with both style and practicality in mind. Marble-effect worktops and splashbacks sit alongside brass fittings and smart units, creating a lovely balance of classic and contemporary. Here you can access the charming garden - wonderfully private thanks to the fencing with leafy climbers, it combines paved areas with shingle for a low-maintenance finish, offering plenty of potential for outdoor relaxing.

Head upstairs and you’ll find two well-presented bedrooms, each with its own appeal. The front bedroom benefits from built-in storage. The bathroom is another standout, pairing a freestanding bathtub with a separate walk-in shower, complemented by marble-style finishes and vintage-inspired fittings for a polished, timeless look.

Bow and Mile End are both excellent neighbourhoods for accessing attractions across the entire capital, and you can even spend a pleasant weekend strolling the two miles to Spitalfields via Brick Lane. Or why not head a similar distance south for all the delights of Canary Wharf and Limehouse. The options of waterside walks in this part of the capital will feel seemingly endless as you settle in. Look out for some wonderful eateries and pubs en route, too.
