The living spaces are wonderfully versatile, with generous proportions and an abundance of natural light throughout. Elegant detailing and pristine decor enhance the sense of character, while the layout offers plenty of flexibility for relaxing, entertaining or working from home.

A WORD FROM THE OWNER

"This has been a much-loved family home – our eldest was a baby when we moved in and now they are all flying the nest. The house has an amazing ability to be a cozy home for immediate family and yet over the years has been the stage for so many celebratory parties and teens hanging out in the basement ‘man cave’.
Things I love most: lying in bed gazing at the plane trees opposite; the light throughout the house; eating breakfast in full sun with the open garden view (no houses opposite either at the front or back); pottering in the garden.
Garden highlights include the Judas tree with its bright pink spring blossom, three different silver birch trees with their gleaming white trunks, the Persian Ironwood with its buttery yellow autumn leaves, the white Wisteria that fills the house with scent for weeks and the many, many scented roses.
I will miss walking the dog in Abney Cemetery, especially when surrounded by clouds of cow parsley in spring, or on the wide-open spaces of the Marshes.
Favourite local coffee places include the Yellow Warbler and Bake Street, while Sodo in Clapton is a family favourite with a great atmosphere and delicious pizzas.
Londis at the end of the road is officially the coolest corner shop in Britain. Yes, really, according to write-ups in The Face and national newspapers, thanks to the welcoming vibe and Anju’s delicious homemade curries.
The local community is very warm and friendly, with the Common playground a focal point for younger families. The Stoke Newington User Group (SNUG) holds regular plant sales, bike mending days, a summer fete and film nights, when everyone brings blankets and deckchairs to watch on the Common."
