Old Ford Road, Bethnal Green, E2

Positioned within the highly sought-after Victoria Park Conservation Area and overlooking a cherry blossom lined street, this elegant three-bedroom Victorian town house forms part of a handsome and historic terrace moments from Victoria Park. The house presents a classically beautiful façade in traditional London stock brick, punctuated by tall double glazed sash windows with stucco architraves, cornicing, and decorative banding courses — hallmarks of its mid-19th century origins.

The entrance hall is cleverly sectioned from the main living space by a discreet pocket door, providing a useful cloakroom area. A welcoming double aspect living / reception room flows through to a generously proportioned kitchen and dining room, where a partially glazed ceiling and full-height glazed doors flood the space with natural light. The sleek, handleless cabinetry and honed stone surfaces are softened by warm timber floors, which run seamlessly throughout the ground floor. A south-facing walled patio garden beyond catches the best of the day’s sun.

Upstairs, the large principal bedroom sits at the front of the house while two further bedroom and a family bathroom overlook the garden.

The house further benefits from underfloor heating and a full-height basement which has been transformed into a versatile space currently used a yoga studio, complete with a utility area, built in storage, and a modern shower room with WC — ideal as a home gym, workspace or guest suite.
