Elwin Street, Jesus (Green) Hospital Estate, Shoreditch, E2

Tucked away on one of the most sought-after streets in the Jesus Hospital Estate conservation area, this charming two-bedroom end of terraced Victorian house offers a considered balance of period detailing and contemporary spatial design. The interior has been thoughtfully configured to maximise flexibility and light, while retaining the architectural character that defines this sought-after enclave of Bethnal Green.

Set behind a handsome brick façade, the ground floor has been opened up to create a generous, free-flowing living and entertaining space that feels both warm and functional. Pine floorboards run throughout the living area, complemented by whitewashed walls and large sash windows that draw in natural light. The front of the house is anchored by a cosy sitting area, while the rear accommodates a well-considered kitchen with ample storage and worktop space, finished with clean lines and contemporary fittings. Just beyond, a versatile study / home office space, or easily adaptable as a small third bedroom, opens onto a secluded courtyard garden.

The bathroom is also situated on the ground floor, and has been neatly integrated into the flow of the space without compromising its sense of openness.

Upstairs, the space has been reimagined to enhance both volume and natural light, with a striking vaulted ceiling. A well-proportioned double bedroom on the half landing, and a second double on the first floor that opens out into a spacious and beautifully bright reception room, currently used as an additional living space with views across to the green itself. There is scope, subject to the usual consents, to reconfigure this reception into a third bedroom if desired.

Throughout the home, thoughtful design choices enhance the feeling of space and calm. Period detailing, such as sash windows, have been retained where possible, while timber flooring has been introduced to complement the character of the building. Skylights and large windows ensure that light filters into every corner of the house.
