Homes in Bethnal Green
Bethnal Green has Victorian and Georgian terraces, including some fine early 19th century houses near Columbia Road and the Weavers area, alongside large post-war council estates and new apartment blocks. Shoreditch, on the western edge, has warehouse conversions and new towers.
Bomb damage during the Second World War led to extensive post-war rebuilding, so period streets are mixed with council blocks. Many period houses have been converted into flats, and conservation areas protect the historic streets. Prices have risen sharply over the past two decades, and Bethnal Green is popular with young professionals. Columbia Road's Sunday flower market is a focal point.
Areas we cover include Bethnal Green, Shoreditch, Columbia Road, Weavers, Cambridge Heath.
