'The house proudly retains many materials from its industrial origins, blending exposed brick walls and stripped-wood flooring, with metal columns, cast-iron radiators and raw-timber beams'

This wonderful, light-filled three-bedroom house is situated on Gibraltar Walk, a quiet Victorian terrace of converted furniture-restoration workshops between Shoreditch and Columbia Road, and a short walk from the City. Internal accommodation extends to almost 2,000 sq ft and is arranged over four generous floors with excellent ceiling height throughout. The house proudly retains many materials from its industrial origins, blending exposed brick walls and stripped-wood flooring, with metal columns, cast-iron radiators and raw-timber beams.

Entry is to a raised ground floor and an open-plan living room with log burner. Past an iron support column is the kitchen and dining area. Light pours in through floor-to-ceiling sash windows along the front aspect, and glazed double doors at the rear open to a small Juliet balcony.

A set of open-tread timber stairs ascends to the first level where a slatted divider forms a corridor between two large bedrooms that are separated by a run of bespoke wardrobes. The front-facing room is currently used as a home office. A stunning Copperlight window illuminates the landing and opens fully with views out over the street below.

On the second floor is a further large bedroom with beautiful hardwood-parquet flooring and behind a glazed divider is an en-suite bathroom.

Already sharing a portion of the ground level’s natural window light, the lower-ground floor also benefits from a glass-brick section of pavement above which was sensitively reinstated by the current owner. A set of beautiful Copperlight doors slide open to reveal a utility room, shower area and door with access to a small non-demised external area behind the house.

Many of the properties along the terrace retain some commercial use as combined live/work units and studio spaces. This particular house has full residential status but is well-suited to working from home.

Gibraltar Walk is brilliantly located between Columbia Road and Bethnal Green, and moments from all that Shoreditch has to offer. This exciting and permanently evolving area has an excellent selection of shops, restaurants and pubs. Shoreditch House, Lyle’s, Sager & Wilde and Morito are all just a few minutes’ walk. Columbia Road has a very popular flower market every Sunday. The green open spaces of Weavers Fields are also close by.

The house is equidistant to Shoreditch High Street station (London Overground) and Bethnal Green station (Central Line), and approximately a mile from Liverpool Street station (Central, Circle, Hammersmith & City and Metropolitan Lines) and the City.
