Casson Street, Shoreditch

Description

Shoreditch is one of London’s most characterful and eclectic areas, and this beautiful four-bedroom London townhouse perfectly captures the spirit and personality of the neighbourhood. Comfortably sleeping up to seven guests, Casson Street is just a short walk from Aldgate East tube station and Liverpool Street station, giving you easy access to the West End for shopping and the financial district for business.

Shoreditch has undergone a huge transformation in the last few years, and today is famous for iconic locations such as Spitalfields Market and Brick Lane. The area has always had a reputation for international cuisine and you can still find some of the best bagel shops in London down Brick Lane. For a gastronomical treat, St. John in Commercial Street offers mouth-watering takes on traditional cuisine such as braised lamb. Meanwhile, the Rochelle Canteen offers a daily-changing menu featuring seasonal dishes, such as succulent venison and guinea fowl.

Casson Street has a delightfully bright and airy feel, with large windows flooding the interior with natural light. The neutral colourways allow the signature artwork and cosy mid-century-inspired furnishings to come to the fore in the two sitting rooms. A level down, the kitchen is modern and sleek, yet still retains original brickwork and features to add authenticity. An attractive dining area overlooks the garden, providing the ideal space for a dinner party or casual family meal.

The bedrooms are spread across the upper levels and are soothingly decorated in gentle tones. The primary suite on the top floor has gorgeous views of the City of London and a sumptuous king-size bed. The main bathroom is a level down, with a free-standing and charmingly upcycled rolltop bath and striking tiled floor. Two further bedrooms occupy the next level down, with comfortable double beds and a shared bathroom. A fourth bedroom has a small double sofa bed suitable for younger guests.

Outside, the compact and private garden has a BBQ and outdoor furniture – an enviable spot for an early-morning coffee or an evening glass of wine before dinner. Casson Street is a chic retreat in one of London’s most fashionable districts – the perfect base for a city break with family or friends.
