1 4 2

A wonderfully unique freehold four-bedroom, two-bathroom house that also spans over the entrance of Nightingale Mews, with a generous and stylish 1591 sq ft / 147.8 sq m of accommodation. Nightingale Mews is a private mews development of twelve houses, with secure parking alongside the Hertford Union Canal, a few steps from Victoria Park.

Our vendors have enjoyed the last twenty-five years living in this property and have remodelled and improved it, creating a desirable and stylish home.

With its unique design and position on Kenilworth Road at the entrance of Nightingale Mews, the rooms on the top floor have long vistas along the period facades on Kenilworth Road. The windows on the other side of both the top floor and the ground floor have a view of the canal through a break in the mews townhouses opposite, through the communal mews garden space.

Nightingale Mews is an exclusive gated development of twelve houses in the Driffield Road conservation area, first built in 1998 in an envious location on the corner of Kenilworth Road and Chisenhale Road, backing onto the Hertford Union Canal.

Future Potential

Our vendors have an elapsed planning consent with Tower Hamlets to add another floor to the first upper level, which would bring that roof ridgeline in line with higher upper-level roof. This would have created a double bedroom a study and shower room. Subject to a new planning application something similar is likely to be possible.

The accommodation

You need to visit to fully appreciate both the scale and the design quality of the 1,591 sq ft / 147.8 sq m, interior of this house, which has been thoughtfully redesigned in a high-quality renovation.

You enter the Mews via the communal gate on Kenilworth Road with both pedestrian and vehicular gates. The allocated secure off-street parking space is located just inside this gate. There is also a second pedestrian gate onto Grove Road.

The ground floor is a huge, open-plan space measuring 10.10 metres by 4.9 metres. Large aluminium bifold doors open onto the private garden while three windows overlook the mews creating a bright and airy room. The living area sits at the garden end while an extensive high-quality fitted white handleless kitchen runs along the rear wall and returns beneath one window. This leaves generous room for dining and entertaining. The wide wooden floorboards add to the clean lines and sense of space.

The stairs lead up to the lower of two landings, this level has a large dual aspect double bedroom and a storage cupboard on the landing. The family bathroom has a white suite, good quality tiles and a set of concertina doors behind which is a utility space complete with a stacked washing machine and dryer a sink and storage cupboards.

There is a short flight of steps up to the top landing, which is a long bright corridor with two windows facing the mews / canal.

The end room is currently used by our vendors as a second living room, this is a huge, almost square room of 4.9m X 4.96 metres, with two windows facing southeast with views along Kenilworth Road and one window opposite facing the mews / canal. This is an impressive and comfortable room.

The Roman Road and Bow Neighbourhood

This sought after neighbourhood is a thriving, highly desirable and lively place to live, with good schools, beautiful green spaces and a well-known food and drink culture. The excellent transport links provide easy access to the City, Canary Wharf and beyond, making it an ideal location for professionals and families alike. 

Kenilworth Road and the other Victorian streets of the Driffield Road Conservation area are not only an architectural delight, but they are very friendly and have a strong community feel, and the house is in the catchment area of the popular Chisenhale Primary School. 

Despite the quietness of the immediate locality, the Roman Road and Bow in general, provide bustle and life with a plethora of independent cafes, bars, and restaurants to choose from and a variety of convenience stores are at hand. From independent boutiques to well-known high street brands, there is something to suit all tastes and budgets. 

The famous Roman Road Market offers an eclectic mix of vintage clothing, fresh produce, and artisanal goods, and there is a Sunday food market in the park, with Broadway and the Columbia Road Flower Markets, a 20-minute stroll along the picturesque Regents Canal.

Mile End tube station is just a short walk away from where the Central, District, and Hammersmith and City lines can be accessed, providing easy access to all parts of the city. Express coaches to Stanstead Airport leave from Mile End, and from Whitechapel, two stops west of Mile End, Heathrow Airport can be reached in 35 minutes via the Elizabeth Line.   There are also excellent bus links, including the number 8, 277, 425 and 339 buses, making it easy to get around the local area in all directions and beyond.

Victoria Park, which is a 213-acre park that was opened in 1845 and is one of the oldest public parks in London. It features a large lake, numerous walking and cycling paths, playgrounds, cafes, and sports facilities. The park also hosts various events throughout the year, including music festivals, food markets, and sporting events. It is considered one of the most popular and well-loved parks in London, providing a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. The Olympic Park and London Stadium are a 20-minute walk away, and the Regents Canal, that flows beside Victoria Park, connects Limehouse Basin and the Thames to the South and Islington to the north.

It is no wonder that properties are in high demand in this special area, with its unique blend of old-world charm, modern-day convenience, and beautiful green spaces.
