A WORD FROM THE OWNER...
"We bought our flat in 2018 and have absolutely loved the past six years in Fish Island. We knew the area was great, but it just keeps getting better. First, we are surrounded by amazing green spaces. The beautiful, tree-lined Victoria Park, with its vibrant summer festivals and expansive green areas, is just a five-minute walk away. It’s perfect for picnics, runs, meeting friends, or escaping the city for a bit of peace. The Olympic Park is also on our doorstep, offering fantastic sporting and cultural amenities such as the Aquatics Centre, Velodrome, and the new V&A East, BBC studios, and Sadler’s Wells. Having Westfield Stratford just a 20-minute walk away is another great asset. Hackney Wick and Fish Island have everything we need—restaurants, bars, delis, and probably the best sourdough in East London—all within a five-minute walk. Over the past six years, our flat has been the cornerstone of our lives. The dual-aspect kitchen, dining, and living room has been a versatile space for socialising, working (during Covid), and relaxing. Sunlight streams through in the morning, and the balcony catches the last rays of the day. The floor-to-ceiling window perfectly frames the London Plane tree, providing a stunning, ever-changing spectacle through spring, summer, and autumn. Most recently, the flat has adapted to become a home for our 11-month-old daughter, transforming perfectly into a family space. However, it's now time for a bigger place, so we are relocating north to be closer to family. We will definitely miss our life here—not just the flat, the beautiful parks, or the vibrant cafes and bars, but the Fish Island community, where we have made some lovely friends."
