Elder Street, London, E1

Historic Grade II listed home in Spitalfields.

Description

Situated in the heart of the Spitalfields Conservation Area, this Grade II listed Georgian residence dating from the early 18th century (circa 1720s) offers a rare opportunity to acquire a distinguished period home in one of East London’s most historic streets.

Set along a cobbled lane, the house provides over 2,000 sq. ft. of accommodation arranged across five storeys. The property benefits from a distinctive 'flying freehold', with the upper floors extending over the neighbouring building, allowing for unusually generous room proportions and a notable sense of volume on the upper levels — a feature seldom found in traditional Spitalfields terraces.

The ground floor opens into an elegant, wood-panelled dining room, leading through to a kitchen, guest W/C, and a private courtyard garden. A magnificent, full-width drawing room occupies the first floor, featuring four large sash windows that flood the space with natural light and provide access to a private roof terrace.

The upper floors accommodate four bedrooms, a bathroom and a shower room, while a fifth bedroom is located on the lower ground floor.

The property is sold with the right to park a vehicle at the rear of the building, a rare and valuable asset within the congestion charging zone.

Location
