THE OWNERS SAY

This flat is my sanctuary in the city. The beautiful views of the leafy woodland and canopy of green trees at the back of the house, with its stunning sunsets, abundance of light and birdsong are a complete joy and provide pure relaxation.

I've loved living in this flat and in this area and if I wasn't leaving London then I wouldn't be selling it! It's perfectly placed to pop to the shops, restaurants, pub, Clissold Park or my favourite, the reservoir and wetlands.

The flat's high ceilings, large rooms and split level give it an amazing sense of space. It is light and bright, yet gives a wonderful feeling of cosiness too. I work from home a lot of the time and the kitchen provides the perfect peaceful space that I've needed. It's a very special place and I hope that somebody will love and enjoy it as much as I have.

BRICKWORKS SAYS

On a wide street of handsome houses in the heart of N16, this split-level one-bedroom flat on the first floor is an absolute delight. From the moment you walk down the ornately tiled garden path, it’ll win you over. High ceilings in the living room give a feeling of space, as well as accommodating stacks of practical shelving, and the gorgeous fireplace makes for a majestic focal point. Step down into the eat-in kitchen, which enjoys plenty of cupboard space, neutral tones and plenty of light.

Both the kitchen and living space are perfectly positioned at the back of the house to enjoy the cornucopia of green outside. The generous dimensions continue in the bedroom, which comfortably houses a decadent four-poster. The bathroom also benefits from natural light, a bonus as many a Londoner can attest, and beautifully opulent green tiles add a touch of luxe.

Lordship Park is in a dreamy spot, being minutes from downtown Stoke Newington. A neighbourhood lauded for its village feel, it is bursting with boutique shops and buzzing nightlife. You needn’t go far when you want to browse, brunch or just absorb the atmosphere. And when you feel like escaping the crowds, nearby Woodberry Wetlands provides a peaceful retreat to nature.
