Features and description
Occupying a sought after position on Navarino Road is this beautifully concieved two bedroom apartment in London Fields. It crowns the top of a handsome Victorian building and has been cleverly renovated to maximise utility and light. The minimal open-plan kitchen anchors the home and connects the dining and sitting room cohesively, creating a wonderful sense of flow. A decked south-facing terrace has views towards neighboruing gardens and mature trees; the perfect spot for sunbathing or alfresco dining. The ever-popular London Fields is a five-minute walk away.
The Tour
Navarino Road is a coveted, tree-lined street that is characterized by grand Victorian terraces, built with London stock brick and large sash windows. It's no-through road status ensures it remains peaceful throughout the day. The apartment is located on the second floor and is accessed via a communal front door and staircase.
The entrance opens onto a long corridor, leading into a bright open kitchen, illuminated by a glazed door connected to a south-facing terrace. MicroCrete wraps around the kitchen countertop; appliances are hidden behind white cabinet doors. The kitchen countertop has a peninsula that gently divides the kitchen and the dining space, where there is space for a table of six with a well proportioned seating area adjacent. Two large windows open to treetops and invite light into the living spaces. Engineered wooden floors bring an extra layer of warmth to the room.
The bedrooms and bathroom sit on the opposite side of the plan. A pair of sash windows defines the main bedroom, with views across the peaceful Navarino Road. This bright room has been sensitively furnished, with neutral carpets and plywood open shelves that sit neatly within the alcove. There is built-in cabinetry and plenty of space for a king-size bed. A quiet second bedroom is located next door. The same carpet runs underfoot in this room, and a window looks out onto the terrace. Currently configured as a study, it can easily fit a double bed.
The bathroom has been executed in a monochrome palette. It has a bathtub with a glass screen and black fittings complemented by the grout between the subway tile in the same tone. Tiles with colourful flecks run underfoot, and there is space for additional storage besides the sink. There is also access to a sizeable loft space from here.
Outdoor Space
The south-facing terrace has a wooden deck with views onto the verdant neighbouring back gardens with tall mature trees. With ample space for planters and outdoor furniture, the secluded terrace is an outdoor sanctuary.
The Area
The flat is located in central Hackney, just to the north of the popular London Fields and bustling Mare Street, and close to the green spaces of Victoria Park and the Regent’s Canal path. London Fields is a five-minute walk away, and Hackney Downs Park is an 11-minute walk away.
There are many fantastic restaurants locally, notably Lardo on Richmond Road, Angelina's and Little Duck on Dalston Lane, and Sesta and Violet on Wilton Way, amongst a range of independent shops. Popular neighbourhood pub The Spurstow is also only a few minutes walk.
Weekly markets take place at Victoria Park and Well Street, and Broadway Market has a reputation for some excellent places to eat and drink and hosts a food market on Saturdays. The E5 Bakehouse, on the edge of London Fields, is excellent for freshly baked artisan bread and grains.
Hackney Downs station is five-minutes walk away with direct service to Liverpool Street. Hackney Central runs direct services to Stratford and Highbury & Islington on the London Overground, whilst London Fields also offers direct trains to Liverpool Street. Bethnal Green Underground station, easily accessible by bus, has excellent links to central London via the Central Line.
