Walden Street, London, E1

Four bedroom Georgian freehold house, a brilliant opportunity for a renovation project.

Description

Enviably nestled within a private gated terrace of Georgian townhouses is this Grade II listed three/four bedroom home offering over 1,150 sqft (107 sqm) approx. of internal space over four floors. This quintessential East London house retains much of its original character including traditional external brickwork, sash windows and perfect proportions in keeping with the era.

The house has scope for any incoming purchaser to stamp their preferences on the property and is in need of some renovation. Upon entering on the ground floor, you will be greeted by a panelled hallway leading to a South facing reception room and study to the rear. This could be opened up as a double front to back reception room with dining area. There is direct access to a private patioed garden providing plenty of space for outside entertaining plus a rare view of the flat backed terrace that is the rear of Walden Street, scarcely found in London as many were destroyed in WWII. The lower-ground floor provides a fitted kitchen to the rear, as well as second reception room providing versatile space as either a sitting or dining room. The first floor accommodates a well sized double bedroom with double sash windows and two separate bathrooms further along the hall. The second floor consists of two charismatic attic style bedrooms that benefit from full head height.
