Mayola Road, Hackney

The Home -

Behind its handsome Victorian façade, this exceptional four-bedroom family home unfolds across four beautifully designed floors, where period proportions meet contemporary architecture in effortless harmony. Extending over 2,196 sqft, the house has been comprehensively remodelled to create a series of generous, light-filled spaces, balancing elegant original detailing with carefully considered modern interventions.

The heart of the home is an outstanding open-plan living space, where a striking side return and rear extension introduce dramatic ceiling heights, oversized rooflights and full-width glazing that draw natural light deep into the house. Across the upper floors, four beautifully proportioned bedrooms are complemented by luxurious bathrooms and a versatile lower ground floor, creating a home that is equally suited to modern family life and entertaining.

The Indoors -

Stepping inside, the raised ground floor immediately showcases the home's Victorian character. High ceilings, decorative cornicing, original fireplaces and beautifully restored proportions create an elegant first impression, while a soft, contemporary palette allows the period features to take centre stage.

The double reception room offers two beautifully connected living spaces, each flooded with natural light from large sash windows. Carefully restored architectural details sit comfortably alongside contemporary finishes, creating rooms that feel both refined and welcoming.

To the lower ground floor, the house transforms into a spectacular open-plan living environment. A substantial side return and rear extension have created a remarkable kitchen, dining and family space beneath oversized rooflights that flood the interior with daylight throughout the day. Full-width glazing opens seamlessly onto the garden, blurring the boundary between inside and out.

The bespoke shaker-style cabinetry is paired with expansive worktops, integrated appliances and a substantial central island, providing an impressive focal point for everyday family life and entertaining. Generous dining and seating areas flow naturally around the space, creating a layout that feels connected while remaining beautifully defined.

The first floor is home to two spacious double bedrooms and a luxurious family bathroom. Finished with a freestanding bath, walk-in shower and elegant contemporary fittings, the bathroom has been designed with a calm, spa-like aesthetic that complements the rest of the house.

Occupying the top floor, the principal suite enjoys a wonderful sense of privacy. A generous bedroom is served by a beautifully appointed en-suite shower room, while an additional bedroom provides excellent flexibility as a nursery, guest room or home office.

Throughout the house, bespoke joinery, oak flooring, carefully selected lighting and a restrained material palette create a timeless interior that feels both contemporary and enduring.

The Outdoors -

Full-width glazing opens onto a generous stone terrace, perfectly positioned for outdoor dining and summer entertaining. Beyond, the landscaped rear garden has been thoughtfully designed with clean architectural lines, mature planting and a large lawn, creating a private and peaceful setting for both children and adults to enjoy.

To the rear, a beautifully constructed garden studio provides exceptional versatility, equally suited as a home office, creative workspace, gym or guest accommodation.
