It used to serve up traditional pie and mash. But now this former East London shop is dishing up a delicious new interior after being transformed into a £1million home.

The current exterior doesn’t give away many clues about the property’s internal transformation. 

The J Gooding’s pie ‘n’ mash shop continues to look like a trading outlet from the street as it retains its original signage – although that is now a little worse for wear and the translucent glass windows mean the interior isn’t visible from outside.
