Property Summary
Full Details
A charming and character-rich Victorian terraced home, approximately 1,492 sq ft, located on a peaceful, tree-lined street overlooking Weaver Fields in E2. This delightful 3-bedroom property (plus a versatile guest room or study) offers 1 bathroom, an additional WC, and a secluded courtyard patio, exuding a rustic ‘cottage’ charm throughout.
Glimpses of the historical features are showcased throughout this former East End ‘workers’ house, complete with a log burner in the reception room which benefits from the peaceful views of the park outside.
Upon entering the house, a hallway leads into the double reception room with 2.78m high ceilings (approx.) and sash windows at both ends, with shutters towards the south facing park side. At the ground floor level, an exposed original yellow brick wall divides the rear extension with fully fitted kitchen/dining area and stone worktops which has 3 glass doors opening onto the walled patio garden, giving privacy and light to the space. There is also a wc with Victorian styled fixtures and fittings on this floor.
An original staircase is filled with light by a clever skylight in the opened pitched roof above, exposing the wooden beams and brickwork and also allowing sky views within the main three piece bathroom. On the first floor is a large main double bedroom complete with original fireplace, cornicing and two sash windows with stunning views over Weaver Fields. There are a further two double bedrooms and an additional room in the converted loft space complete with skylight, which could be used as an additional guest bedroom, study or snug. Stripped back wood floor boards, double glazed sash windows and period charm flows throughout this house.
Being tucked away but with so much on the doorstep, Columbia Road with its famous flower market and buzzing Brick Lane are both within a short walk. Some great restaurants are also close by such as Campania, Brawn and Morito with E Pellicci (offering English and Italian classics since 1900) and Brick Lane Beigel Bakery which has a similar amount of heritage. In addition to the green spaces of Weavers Fields, there is Haggerston Park, which houses Hackney City Farm, and East London’s well known Victoria Park. Bethnal Green tube (Central Line) is minutes around the corner, along with fantastic access across the City with Whitechapel (Crossrail) within walking distance.
