Shepton Houses, Welwyn Street, Bethnal Green, E2

This property, on the top floor of this red-brick Victorian building, and has a bright reception room with plenty of natural light, 2 doubles and 1 single bedroom, family bathroom and fitted kitchen.

Being on the top floor, this flat enjoys plenty of natural light throughout, thanks to its dual aspect, and the quiet advantage of no upstairs neighbours.

Shepton Houses is typical of the early residential blocks of East London. Built in the latter part of the nineteenth century by the East End Dwellings Company, a Victorian philanthropic organisation, the intention was to "house the very poor" – times have certainly changed.

Bethnal Green and neighbouring Shoreditch have benefited from much regeneration over recent decades; renovated warehouses, independent shops, artisan coffee houses, highly rated restaurants and reclaimed vintage stores have made the area a popular place to own a property and a favourite destination for visitors. Columbia Road Flower Market, Spitalfields and Whitechapel are all close by as well as Westfield Stratford shopping centre and some fantastic green escapes further afield - Haggerston Park, London Fields, Queen Elizabeth's Olympic Park, and Victoria Park - voted London's favourite outdoor space.

The property is very well located, just a few moments from Bethnal Green Underground Station and a short walk to Victoria Park, the capital's favourite green space among Londoners, Broadway Market and Brick Lane.
