It doesn’t look pretty but if you fancy owning a piece of London’s transport history – the former Shoreditch station is being auctioned off this month.

From the official auction description:

Situated at the junction with Code Street and Pedley Street adjacent to Allen Gardens. The property is within a popular residential area with it many trendy shops, bars and restaurants, Brick Lane is within easy walking distance and Old Spitalfields Market is close by. Public transport includes Shoreditch High Street Station.

A single floow building – previously Shoreditch Underground Station, the property comprises a ticket office, a lobby area, store rooms, plant rooms and a WC.

The initial asking price is only £180,000 (approx. $288,000).

Imagine the cool house this would make! I have a feeling we’ll be seeing it on Grand Designs one day!
