EastEnders fans, have you ever wondered what it would be like to live on Albert Square? Well, here is your chance to make your dreams a reality.

Sort of.

A four-bedroom, Victorian terrace house on Fassett Square has gone up for sale for a whopping £1.1 million – offering some lucky people the chance to move to the iconic corner of East London.

Fassett Square is the real-life, residential square in the London Borough of Hackney that inspired the fictional Albert Square.

At that price, it's likely to be out of most of our price ranges, but it can be seen online here – if you like having a little nosy anyway.

Fassett Square was used by EastEnders creators as the model to design the soap's residential area – with each terraced house in Walford carefully replicating the exteriors of this corner of Hackney.

EastEnders also used a few other local landmarks for inspiration, with the Queen Vic being based on the former Queen Elizabeth pub, and the nearby Ridley Road Market inspiring the fictional Walford market.

EastEnders continues tomorrow night (October 19) at 7.30pm on BBC One.
