Comments on: A Transformation in Princelet St https://spitalfieldslife.com/2011/11/11/a-transformation-in-princelet-st/ In the midst of life I woke to find myself living in an old house beside Brick Lane in the East End of London Thu, 27 Jan 2022 21:16:04 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=7.0 By: David Woods https://spitalfieldslife.com/2011/11/11/a-transformation-in-princelet-st/#comment-1447837 Thu, 27 Jan 2022 21:16:04 +0000 http://spitalfieldslife.com/?p=48503#comment-1447837 I came across this house after carrying out some family history research ad discovering that my Great Grandfather owned the tailors shop that was located here in 1921.

The restoration may not be back to original but it is absolutely beautiful.

The people that do this labour of love are so talented.

That beautiful tree growing in the middle of the city….

I love the quirky assimilation of the antique and modern in the same building and the house front is so skillfully created it could have been the original. Very inspiring. (The cats are charming too).

Beautiful transformation. I want it!
Love that bathtub.

Wonderful paintings in a marvellous setting. I hope we get another chance to visit soon.
