Offered chain free and with an extra long lease to be granted of circa 999 years, this unique home offers buyers the opportunity to live in one of the most unique homes in Victoria Park Village.
The current owners have a deep connection to Victoria Park Village having opened the very first restaurant here in 1988, and this maisonette was their family home for many years; they commissioned architect and former RIBA president Paul Hyatt to design the space in 2000 and proceeded to laterally knock through and connect two apartments to create this very special space. The property offers buyers the opportunity to refurbish and reimagine the space even further to suit their needs and taste.
Accessed via it’s own front door on quiet Ruthven Street, you are immediately led to the first floor and greeted by impressively high 9ft ceilings throughout. The first floor is comprised of 4 double bedrooms, 3 bathrooms (including 2 ensuite shower rooms), utility cupboard and ample fitted storge. All bedrooms benefit from large sash windows and triple glazing, with the main bedroom having fantastic corner views directly over the village.
The second floor is an expansive open plan living, dining and entertaining space with vaulted ceilings and exposed support beams stretching to over 700 sq.ft.; 7 large sash windows allow sunlight to flood in from the south, east and west, as well as 3 sets of French doors leading to the roof terraces. The kitchen is fully integrated with a large central island and there is even a spiral staircase leading to a light filled mezzanine office/snug with additional storage.
This home is further complimented by two private roof terraces – the main terrace extends to 50 sq.m (over 500sq.ft.) and is a generous space which attracts sunshine from the east in the morning and the west in the afternoon/summer evenings, making it an incredible entertaining space with views of the Victoria Park tree tops and Ruthven Street/Lauriston Road. The second terrace is accessed from the dining area.
Victoria Park Village is arguably east London’s most desirable neighbourhood. The retail offering in the village is second to none, with favourites like Village Organic, Gails bakery, Ginger Pig butchers, Bottle Apostle bottle shop all on your doorstep. Easthaus favourite and newcomer to the village, Pophams bakery and coffee shop, is just across the road, as well as Hackney favourite The Empress pub and kitchen an ever-present here since the late 1800s – you truly are spoilt for choice.
Victoria Park and Regents Canal are just a short walk away, with London Fields and Broadway Market circa 15 mins walk. There are endless options for pubs, shops and cafes all by foot, it is truly one of London’s villages.

Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
