*NEWLY RENOVATED* An exceptionally rare opportunity to purchase a charming three-bedroom home nestled in the highly coveted Jesus Green Hospital Estate. This unique property, a cornerstone of the local community for nearly two centuries, is on the market for the first time in over 25 years. Originally a bakery, it boasts original bake ovens still on display in the basement, preserving its rich history.
The current owners undertook a complete renovation in the 1990s, enhancing the property while retaining its character. Spanning three floors, 'The Bakery' generally offers a larger footprint than its neighbours, featuring three spacious bedrooms, two modern bathrooms as well as large kitchen/reception featuring wooden flooring and a corner aspect with plenty of windows allowing an abundance of natural light to beam in as well as a picturesque view along Quilter Street.
Once serving as the headquarters for the Liberal Party in the East End of London and later a betting shop, The Bakery is featured in the local history book "Watercress but no sandwiches: 300 years of the Columbia Road area" and has made appearances in Mike Leigh's acclaimed film "Secrets & Lies," along with various TV commercials.
Outside, the private garden is secluded with a south-west facing aspect, complete with direct road access-perfect for bikes! A mature fig tree provides a picturesque spot for a hammock, ideal for lazy summer evenings. Families will appreciate the close proximity to Columbia Road Primary School, just a five-minute walk away including a vibrant flower market on a Sunday, as well as the nearby Hackney City Farm nearby. Shoreditch & The City are also within walking distance.
