After stepping in through your front door you'll enter your huge, welcoming, 330 square foot lounge, kitchen and diner. Broad engineered oak hardwood flooring flows throughout, and modern pendulum lighting adds to the bright natural light spilling in from a sash window to the front. In your kitchen area, glossy white brickwork splashbacks, smooth ebony countertops and pale peacock blue cabinetry frame the integrated chef's oven and Smeg extractor hood. There's also some discreet, convenient purpose built storage behind your dining area.

An open archway leads through to your handsome double bedroom, where soft smoky grey carpet runs underfoot and there's a whole wall of sleek custom made wardrobe space. Your spacious bathroom sits next door, a sumptuous mix of mint green paintwork and white brickwork tiling, all complemented beautifully by monochrome geometric floor tiles. It's all completed by a dedicated stroll in shower. There's also a handy recessed utility space with plenty of shelving for laundry and other personal effects.

Outside, you'll arrive in the green meadows of Hackney Downs Park in less than two minutes. A popular spot for summer picnics, there's also some immaculate tennis courts available for hire. Your new local, The StarBy Hackney Downs, sits just by the entrance to the park and serves tasty craft beers, artisan burgers and great Sunday roasts.

A word from the expert...

"I feel right at home in Hackney, although i’m originally from Greece. You can be anyone, wear whatever you like and always feel welcome. The multiculturalism here comes across in the diversity of the cafés, restaurants, shops and bars. From specialty coffee shops and Michelin star restaurants to beautiful parks and art galleries, Hackney has something for everyone.
Weekends at Victoria Park or Broadway market are filled with great community energy, international delicacies and local artisan creations. For dog lovers, the marshes are beautiful for afternoon and weekend walks with your four-legged friends. And while you’re there, you can stop by the river Lea at the Princess of Wales for a Sunday roast, Here East for brunch, or Crate Brewery for pizza and a local beer.
Properties in the area vary from characterful Victorian and Georgian houses to charming local authority red-brick blocks and beautifully designed modern developments with communal roof terraces.
I have found my home in Hackney and it holds a very special place in my heart."
