Downs Park Road, Hackney

The Home

This beautifully balanced two-bedroom home, tucked away on the upper floor of a Victorian conversion on the ever-popular Downs Park Road, greets you with impressively high ceilings in the hallway, an abundance of natural light, and a sense of calm that flows throughout the space. Perched above street level, this thoughtfully laid out home offers two generous bedrooms, a clever hallway turned utility nook, and excellent built in storage. A bright open plan living/kitchen space, while a mini hallway neatly separates the bedrooms and bathroom for privacy. Set directly opposite the open green of Hackney Downs Park, with its tennis courts and wide lawns, and just moments from the cafés, shops, and culture of Chatsworth Road and Lower Clapton, this is a home that delivers on both lifestyle and location.

The Indoors -

Stepping off the wide landing and you’re led straight into a bright, versatile living zone. Large windows frame neighbourhood views and pour sunlight over an easy lounge set up with space for a dining table. The kitchen tucks discreetly to one side, giving a sense of separation while keeping connection to the rest of the space. Integrated oven, hob and plentiful cabinetry keep counters clutter free.

To the left of the main hallway, the main bedroom comfortably fits a double bed, wardrobes and a work from home desk. Large sash windows ensure this room stays bright and uplifting throughout the day.
On the right of the main corridor, a short secondary hallway doubles as a handy laundry spot or storage hub perfect for stashing the vacuum and overflow pantry items.

Directly off this mini hallway, the bathroom is fully tiled and freshly finished. A full size bath with overhead shower, sleek chrome fixtures and a window for natural ventilation.
Opposite the bathroom, the second bedroom offers space for a double or a generous single plus fitted wardrobes. Another well placed window keeps the atmosphere light and airy.
