With leafy views across Millfields Park and a private balcony tucked among the treetops, this one bedroom apartment occupies the third floor of a modern development in Clapton.

If you lived here...

Step inside and you'll find a thoughtfully arranged home extending to approximately 554 square feet, with warm wood-effect flooring running through the main living space. The open-plan kitchen, dining and reception room stretches almost 30 feet, giving you plenty of flexibility to arrange things to suit your day-to-day life. At one end, the kitchen has white cabinetry, dark worktops and a window above the sink, while the dining area sits comfortably between the kitchen and lounge. The reception space feels particularly welcoming, with a deep blue feature wall, plenty of room for seating and two windows bringing in natural light.

The double bedroom sits separately from the main living area, with soft carpeting, a feature wallpapered wall and space for wardrobes. A door leads directly onto the private balcony, where timber decking and room for a small table and chairs make it a lovely spot for a morning coffee or an evening drink. The surrounding trees provide a leafy outlook towards Millfields Park, giving the outdoor space a sense of separation from the streets below. Back inside, the bathroom has neutral tiling, a bathtub with an overhead shower and a heated towel rail. There's also a separate storage cupboard accessed from the hallway, providing useful space to keep everyday belongings out of sight. Pets are also permitted within the development, subject to prior request and agreement.

A word from the owner...

"The location on the park will be impossible to replace. It has been fantastic to have the outdoors, marshes, and wetlands right on our door step. The trees provide much needed shade in Summer and the community garden next door gives the opportunity for some extra outdoor space."
