“A bright garden home in a sought-after east-London location”<br/><br/>This three-bedroom house sits on a neat terraced row just behind Brick Lane, in London’s vibrant East End. Arranged across three floors, the house has been thoughtfully remodelled to celebrate its mid-century proportions. Bespoke plywood joinery and a playful selection of textures and patterns present a modern, characterful home, with an unusually expansive garden at the rear.<br/><br/>The Tour<br/><br/>Entry is into a welcoming living room that introduces the home’s eclectic sense of materiality: carefully crafted plywood panelling, a central timber staircase and smooth, polished concrete flooring underfoot. The walls are washed in mint green, bringing a gentle contrast to the natural tones.<br/><br/>A bright open-plan kitchen unfolds at the rear. Contemporary white cabinetry and a splashback of beautiful mismatched Mexican tiles run along one wall, and concrete continues underfoot. An exciting detail is a wall made entirely of pegboards for hanging artwork and kitchen accessories. Full-height glazed doors open out to the garden, lending an effortless connection to the outdoors.<br/><br/>On the first floor, a spacious living room sits at the back, brightened by a large window, while a bedroom is at the front, currently used as an office space.<br/><br/>Upstairs, plywood panelling lines the walls and solid oak parquet flooring flows throughout. Two bedrooms are fitted with bespoke wardrobes, and there is additional storage in the hallway. A bathroom completes the floor, fitted with a bathtub.<br/><br/>Outdoor Space<br/><br/>A rear garden extends the living space, with a concrete patio leading to a pebble garden. A row of stepping stones creates a thoughtful path to a storage shed at the rear. Shrubs and mature planting line the borders, while neighbouring trees rise above the timber fences, establishing a wonderfully secluded setting. At the front of the property is a driveway with a parking space. <br/><br/>The Area<br/><br/>Chilton Street is excellently located between Spitalfields and Hackney, areas renowned for their mix of restaurants, bars and galleries. Brick Lane is a two-minute walk away, while the East End markets of Columbia Road and Spitalfields are a short stroll away.<br/><br/>Redchurch Street is lined with boutiques, cafes and restaurants, while Spitalfields and Shoreditch provide additional coveted destinations, including Ottolenghi, Crispin, and St. John Bread & Wine. Arnold Circus is close by with a popular greengrocer.<br/><br/>There are several green spaces nearby, including Weaver’s Fields, Bethnal Green Garden (which lies next to the Young V&A), Haggerston Park, and London Fields with its heated lido. There are also city farms in both Spitalfields, to the south, and Hackney, to the north.<br/><br/>Shoreditch High Street is the nearest station, with Overground services running to Highbury & Islington and Dalston Junction in one direction, and Clapham Junction in the other. The Underground can be picked up at Bethnal Green (Central Line), Liverpool Street (Central, Circle, Elizabeth, Hammersmith & City, Metropolitan Lines) or Old Street (Northern Line).<br/><br/>
