IF YOU LIVED HERE…
Although your stunning new home makes an instant impressions with its unique features and timeless style, you’ll enjoy taking your time to explore every nook.

a word from the owner...
'This flat is honestly such a wonderful place to live. Like a calm little haven right in the thick of all the buzz of Lower Clapton. Sitting on the window seat in the living room you get this especially, being able to chill in a little quiet nook while you watch the street pass by below. It's amazing too how the flat feels so generous and spacious yet cosy at the same time. Different members of my family have lived in it for over 10 years, and we all have so many happy memories of it - will be hard to say goodbye!'

Our Local Guide:
Hackney
Where do you start with Hackney? It can feel like it’s all been said before, but, of course, it can’t have been because the area is constantly evolving, which is what keeps it so fresh. It’s just what happens when a neighbourhood has such a high population of creative innovators.
Even fans of Hackney’s scruffier edges love the imaginative ways that the area has been regenerated, with thoughtfully-designed stores, bars and coffee shops sitting comfortably alongside sleek architecture and beloved institutions such as Ridley Road Market.
Despite all this urban buzz, the area has a surprisingly large amount of green space, including Hackney Wick, Victoria Park and London Fields, which fill up with a mix of visitors and locals at weekends. Whether they go on to have food at a Michelin-starred restaurant, a pint in The Talbot or a swim in the lido, they’re all united in their love of this most unique community.

Features + Perks
Vibrant nightlife
Breweries, eclectic clubs, intimate bars, warehouse parties, world-class music venues… The only thing you probably shouldn’t expect if you visit Hackney late in the day is an early night. This part of east London attracts visitors from across the globe, but residents get to enjoy it without the dash for a night bus home.
Great Pubs
Great British pub culture is alive and well in Hackney. In fact, according to CAMRA, it’s the only London borough where the number of pubs has risen this century. With everything from traditional old boozers to gastropubs, favourites include The Victoria, The Hemingway and The Talbot.
Plenty of period property
Thanks to a property boom in London during and after the reign of Queen Victoria, the borough of Hackney has one of the highest concentrations of Victorian and Edwardian housing. Today you’ll find everything from Victorian flat conversions near Victoria Park to grand Grade II listed Georgian homes around London Fields.
Easy access to the City
City workers living in Hackney not only make a big saving on travel, they’ve got an extra push to keep fit. Although the borough covers a large area, almost all of it is a walk, jog or peddle from Liverpool Street and Bank. If that’s not possible, there are plenty of bus and train routes.
