Claredale Street, Keeling House Claredale Street, E2

A bright and modern 2 bedroom split level apartment for rent with private south-east facing balcony set on the first and second floors of the iconic Keeling House in Bethnal Green.

The apartment comprises an entrance hallway with large utility cupboard, the kitchen / dining and entertaining space is open plan with a private south-east facing balcony. Upstairs there is a further hallway storage cupboard, two double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The main bedroom features a wall of bespoke built-in cabinetry incorporating a practical workspace beneath the window, creating an ideal area for home working or study, plus a deceptively large built-in cupboard cleverly recessed over the stairs to provide ample storage without compromising the room’s proportions.

Designed in the 1950s by famed modernist architect Denys Lasdun (also behind the National Theatre), Keeling House was recognised for its architectural significance with a Grade II* Listed status in 1993, the building was then sympathetically restored in 2001 by Munkenbeck + Marshall and remains one of the area’s most sought-after residential landmarks.

Securely accessed via gated entry and with the warm welcome of long-standing daytime porters, the communal spaces here feel both cared for and quietly impressive. The ground-floor courtyard features tranquil water gardens, secure bike storage, and lift access to all floors—with additional security via coded entry to each individual floor.
