Whites Row, E1

Spread across 3,386 sqft (approx.) and spanning 5 floors, this Grade II listed, modernised residence which dates back to the 18th Century boasts 5 double bedrooms, 5 bathrooms (plus wc), 2 reception rooms, and an exceptionally unique living space, right in the heart of historical Spitalfields. This impressive former Huguenot townhouse with a double frontage dates back to around 1773 and stands out as a prestigious trophy home.

Originally a Shipping Merchants Residence, and since revitalized by renowned local designer Chris Dyson Architects in 2009 for a private client, the house seamlessly blends period charm with modern day luxury. The meticulous attention to detail is evident throughout each floor, showcasing a high-end specification from the wide boarded flooring to sophisticated lighting systems which harmoniously integrated into the overall design.

The exterior of the house features a grand and imposing facade with historic wrought iron railings which enclose a stepped main entrance plus a side door that once granted access to servants but now more convenient for grocery loading or bicycles. Today, these entrances lead into a striking living space and open-plan Gaggenau and Corian clad kitchen, complete with a double-height ceiling and a two-storey retractable glass roof that enriches the lower floor with natural light and highlights the incredible fully irrigated living wall. This entertainment area is further enhanced by a dining area that easily caters for a 12-seater dining table plus additional amenities including AV cabinet, practical larder/utility room and a dumb waiter serving the roof terrace and master bedroom.
