Mapledene Road, London Fields, E8

This characterful three-bedroom Victorian terraced house with a bathroom plus a WC and a sizeable garden is located right in the leafy residential heart of London Fields!

Situated on one of Hackney's most desirable streets in the Graham Road and Mapledene Conservation Area, the house has been tastefully refurbished and extended by the renowned design consultancy Brinkworth. It now incorporates a large family kitchen/dining area in addition to its original, well-proportioned, rooms. High ceilings give a wonderful feeling of space throughout.

From the entrance, the traditional layout of the property has been retained, with a living room and linked study accessed from the hallway. A south-facing bay window illuminates the space, and a reeded-glass window looks into the kitchen from the study. There is a WC underneath the stairs plus a cellar which is accessed via a hatch in the floor.

The extended kitchen/dining room has a clean simplicity, with plenty of built-in storage and great views into the garden through glazed timber doors which slide discreetly out of sight. Skylights above both the kitchen and dining area flood the rooms with natural light.

A recently refurbished decked area leads out from the dining room, taking advantage of the afternoon and evening sun. There is a well-maintained lawn plus a covered storage area to the side of the house.

Stairs from the hallway lead up to the master bedroom at the front of the house which benefits from having built-in storage. There is a good-sized second bedroom, also with built-in storage, a recently refurbished bathroom and an additional bedroom overlooking the rear garden.

With the exception of the kitchen and bathroom, timber floors have been retained and painted throughout the property, maintaining the characterful period charm of the property.

The property offers excellent scope to convert the roof space into a habitable room subject to planning permission which was previously granted for the house but has now expired. Some other neighbouring properties on the street have already secured planning consent for similar loft extensions, setting a strong precedent that should support another future application. A great opportunity for buyers looking to extend and add value. Interested parties should make their own enquiries with Hackney Planning.

The house is perfectly located a few minutes’ walk from London Fields and its ever popular lido. There are also a number of great restaurants, coffee shops and bars nearby, particularly around Broadway Market. There are outstanding schools within easy reach including Queensbridge Primary and Gayhurst Community School.

The area is well served by public transport, with Dalston Junction, Haggerston and London Fields all sitting on the Overground line and within 15 minutes’ walk. Hackney Downs and Hackney Central overground stations are also within easy walking distance. The nearest underground station is Bethnal Green, around a 15 to 20 minute walk, which offers the Central Line. There's plenty of great bus and cycle routes dotted around too which offer speedy connections into the city.
