THE LEGAL BIT

While we strive to create true-to-life photographs, floor plans and descriptions, our marketing material is only a guide. Purchasers should always visit in person, ask relevant questions and triple-check details. Brickworks takes our duty of care incredibly seriously and takes all reasonable steps to ensure all presented information is correct. However, we sometimes rely on the accuracy of the information provided to us by the seller and others. Also, please note that we often round up/down total floor plan measurements and/or use approximate distances.

BRICKWORKS SAYS

Tucked away in a quiet courtyard, you’d be forgiven for not realising you’re just round the corner from the hustle and bustle. Perched on the top floor, it’s possible to enjoy a feeling of detachment sitting in the light-filled living space or lounging in bed overlooking the willow tree outside. And having not one, but two, balconies positioned at either end of the flat means you can opt to take five when the sun is in prime position.

Satisfying upgrades have been added courtesy of the current owners. Engineered wood flooring gives a high-spec finish, as do the kit-kat mosaic tiles and timeless shaker-style units in the eat-in kitchen. The sensible layout means the bedrooms are similar sizes, and with a reassuring amount of storage, it’s also an eminently practical home.

Step out of Hacon Square and you’re greeted by the delights of London Fields. You only have to cross the road to pick up out-of-this-world pastries at Pophams, or grab a coffee from Running Late. The area is a wonderful mix of laid-back, with London Fields lido and Broadway Market on your doorstep, and higher octane pursuits thanks to an abundance of gyms, pubs and other after-hours venues to choose from.

THE OWNERS SAY

We’ve had the pleasure of calling this flat home for the past 13 years, and it’s been a true haven for us. From the moment we walked in, the airy space captured our hearts—thanks to its generous south-facing windows, top-floor setting and balconies on both sides.

Over the years, we’ve enjoyed adding personal touches, making it truly our own. The location is unbeatable. Situated right on the doorstep of London Fields and Hackney Central, we’ve had easy access to vibrant culture, trendy bars, and a fantastic selection of restaurants. We’ve fallen in love with the neighbourhood and, though we’ll miss it dearly, we’re staying just around the corner!

landmarks

1 Lardo

When Italians rate the food, you know it’s the business. Delicious, authentic fare, cocktails that hit the mark and divine pizzas, all served in unpretentious surroundings.

2 Pub on the Park

Practically an institution, this appealing pub overlooking London Fields is equally popular with the Saturday night revellers as it is with the lazy Sunday relaxers thanks to the good grub and good vibes.

3 Hackney Picturehouse

Hackney’s wish for a proper cinema was answered in 2011 with the arrival of the magnificent Hackney Picturehouse. With one huge and a few smaller screens, it's part of a tiny British chain of stylish, intelligent cinemas. The still new-feeling Picturehouse shows well-selected mainstream releases as well as indie flicks. The cafe is worth visiting in its own right too.

4 E5 Bakehouse

One of our clients told us about E5 Bakehouse, and we soon understood why. Extraordinary bread, pastries, brunch/lunches, a strong focus on sustainability and community-building, and a story that resonates strongly with us and many others. If you are nearby, you must check it out.

5 Hackney Empire

This beautiful Victorian theatre stages diverse productions including the best of British drama, opera and ballet and interactive live shows for little ones.
