Moments From London Fields

Independent mortgage advice

Tucked just off Mare Street, this bright one-bedroom apartment sits on the second floor of a modern development in the heart of Hackney. London Fields and Wilton Way are all close by, so morning swims, weekend markets and relaxed neighbourhood dinners are part of everyday life here. It is a setting that feels creative and well connected yet quietly positioned away from the main road.

IF YOU LIVED HERE...

Step inside and a welcoming hallway leads through to a beautifully bright open plan kitchen, lounge and dining room stretching over 21 feet in length. Windows at either end draw in natural light throughout the day, giving the space a calm, airy feel. The kitchen is neatly arranged with pale grey cabinetry, smoky worktops and integrated appliances, leaving plenty of room for a proper dining table and a comfortable seating area. Engineered wood flooring runs underfoot, adding warmth and tying the space together.

Full height doors open onto your private south facing balcony. Fully decked and perfectly sized for a small table and chairs, it is a lovely spot for coffee in the sun or an evening drink overlooking the surrounding rooftops.

The bedroom is a well-proportioned double, finished in soft neutral tones with a wall of mirrored fitted wardrobes that reflect the light and provide generous storage. The bathroom is simple and modern, complete with a spacious walk-in shower and clean, understated tiling. Overall, the layout feels thoughtfully arranged and easy to settle into, with everything in its right place.

WHAT ELSE?

London Fields station is around eight minutes on foot, with easy access to Hackney Central and Hackney Downs stations for Overground links across East London.

Pophams bakery for weekend pastries, The Spurstowe Arms for a cosy evening pint, plus Broadway Market and London Fields all within easy walking distance.

a word from the owner...

"I really loved living at Reading Lane! The location was what sold it for me- it's a 5-minute walk to London Fields, the Lido, Broadway Market, and a few minutes from Wilton Way which was lovely for cafes and restaurants. And even though it's just off Mare Street it feels quiet and not overlooked. The main living area is nice and bright- with large windows at both the front and back. Having a sunny outdoor space (for most of the day) was also really important to me and I used it a lot."

Our Local Guide:
Hackney

Reading Lane, Hackney — Stow Brothers

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.
