Situated in the gated 1930s Dinmont House in Bethnal Green, this one-bedroom apartment has been artfully conceived to balance original features with contemporary interventions. The bright space has retained its eight-over-eight sash windows that draw in natural light throughout the day. It sits close to the excellent independent eateries of Broadway Market and Columbia Road as well as the green spaces of Haggerston Park, London Fields and Victoria Park.

The Tour

The apartment is entered on the second floor via an open, communal stone staircase. From here, the original 1930s front door opens to a hallway, which has a handy utility cupboard housing the washing machine, along with space for coats and shoes. Cork flooring flows underfoot throughout, unifying each room.

At the front of the plan is the living and dining room, where light filters through the panes of a large sash window. To one side, built-in painted plywood joinery flanks a chimney breast and there is plenty space for soft seating and a dining table. Next door is the kitchen, which has been recently renovated with birch plywood cabinetry and subtle pink coloured walls. A bank of cupboards and open shelves provide a good spot for keeping favourite pottery and glassware. Subject to an extensive rennovation in recent years, the apartment also has new column radiators throughout, with all pipework concealed below the floor.

At the front of the plan, the generously proportioned bedroom has plenty of space for storage. Delightfully rendered, the calming white palette casts light around the space. The bathroom has a contemporary feel, lined with carefully detailed matt green and white tiles by Domus. There is a deep bath tub fitted with a rain-style shower head and finished with brass fixtures.

The apartment comes with an outside storage unit that can easily house several bikes.

Outdoor Space

Dotted with picnic benches and well-tended pot plants, Dinmont House is centred around recently re-landscaped communal grounds behind secure gates.
