45 Albert Square ("Rosedene") has been home to the Beale family since the Second World War when it had an outside toilet. The property was owned by the council until 2004 when Pauline purchased it from them.
Lou Beale lived here until she died in 1988. Her children Pauline and Pete were born in the house, and Pauline later lived here with her husband Arthur and their children Mark, Michelle and Martin. Mark and Michelle later moved out, and Arthur died. Pauline's friendDerek Harkinson moved in with her but moved out after an argument. Martin's wife Sonia also moved in, and Pauline handed over half the house to Martin and Sonia. Sonia left Martin forNaomi Julien and moved out again. Pauline's new husbandJoe Macer and his friendBert Atkinson since moved in, but in April 2006 Pauline kicked them both out after her discovery of their criminal past and dumped them on Dot and Jim Branning. Pauline eventually relented and let Joe return home in June 2006.Pauline lived in the house alone again after learning that Martin and Sonia were back together. She accidentally stared a fire in the kitchen, but she continued to live there alone. Pauline was due to go to America on Christmas Day 2006, and packed all her things, but died in the Square after arguing with Sonia in the living room, which ended in Pauline getting slapped and both her, and her treasured fruit bowl smashed off of the ground and also with Joe (off-screen). Martin then set about clearing all her belongings out of the house.
On 26 January 2007, Joe confessed to Dot that he had caused Pauline's death by hitting her with a frying pan. Dot tried to tell her husband Jim but Joe covered her mouth. Jim freed Dot and in the struggle, Joe fell through the bedroom window and onto the Fowler family run market stall, and died instantly.
In Pauline's will, she left her half of the house to Martin. The mortgage was now paid through an insurance policy of Pauline's. Pauline's will, however, stated that Martin would lose his right to her half of the house if he lived there with Sonia. Sonia, Martin and Rebecca left Walford.The will stated that if Martin was denied his right to the house, it was to go to his cousin, Ian
Ian Beale , who moved in an currently lives there with his family. The house was then currently empty, although Pauline's ashes remained on the mantelpiece untilDot Cotton buried them byArthur Fowler , who was Pauline's first husband. While it was empty,Peter Beale andJay Brown broke in, as didMax Branning andStacey Slater .Honey Mitchell expressed interest in renting it from Ian but Ian refused to rent to the Mitchells.In April, Ian decided to move in there himself with his family, but Peter and Lucy refused because they believed the ghost of Pauline would haunt them. Eventually Ian gave the ashes to Dot and Peter and Lucy agreed that as Pauline's ashes were no longer in the house, she would not haunt them.
Ian has since realised the living room and the dining room were too small so he knocked the wall out between the two rooms to make more room. When the house was owned by Pauline, the living room was used as a bedroom, for when Pauline's son and family lived there. When
Ethel Skinner was gravely ill, Pauline let her live there. Ethel askedDot Cotton to euthanise her on her 80th birthday, and after a while, reluctantly agreed. The dining room was used both as a living room and a dining room, where Pauline's treasuredfruit bowl sat on the table for years. The kitchen has now been re-fitted and the old fireplace in the kitchen has been raised up a bit since Pauline lived there. There are now three bedrooms — the master, Lucy's, which she now shares with Bobby, and the attic conversion that Joe and Bert made, shared by Steven and Peter until Steven's departure..The people currently living here are Ian, Jane,Peter, and
Bobby Beale . Jane's brother, Christian turned up in January 2008 and lived with them for a month, sleeping on the sofa until Ian leased the flat above Beale's plaice to him. Lucy stayed with Christian for several months but moved back in.*Current Residents: Ian, Jane, Lucy, Peter, and
