Offering a rare opportunity to own a Victorian freehold house, in the heart of Hackney: this cottage-style home has plenty of charm, a neutral palette with period features and a private garden on a quiet residential street moments from Victoria Park Village.
Comprising an open plan dual-aspect living and dining room with large east and west facing box sash windows, a decorative cast iron fireplace, engineered wood flooring and column style radiators. The current owners have maximised the storage opportunities with bespoke cabinetry on either side of the fireplace and large storage cupboards under the stairs (with utility space). The contemporary kitchen was refurbished in 2019 with granite worktops, shaker style kitchen cabinets, fitted cabinets and appliances (with the exception of the washing machine). A timber and glass panelled kitchen door opens onto the private garden - the current owners laid new paving and built a pergola in 2023 creating an inviting space to enjoy the summer months. White painted wooden stairs with a woven runner lead up to the first floor with a well-proportioned main bedroom with generous ceiling height, a full wall of fitted wardrobes and space for additional storage. The second bedroom benefits from a fitted storage cupboard and bespoke built-in desk space for home working, with views over the garden. The bathroom was fully refurbished in 2019 with a full-length shower with Lussostone shower screen and geometric tiled flooring.
