3 bed terraced house for sale

Chilton Street, London E2

“A bright garden home in a sought-after east-London location”

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.

The Tour

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.

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.

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.

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.

Outdoor Space

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.

The Area

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.

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.

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.

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).
