Roach Road, Omega Works, E3

Welcome to the flat that your dreams (and possibly your Pinterest boards) have been waiting for - a sprawling 1,000 square foot plus, two bedroom wonder in the heart of Hackney Wick, where you can gaze out your massive windows at canal boats and the London Stadium, and feel smug about your excellent taste in both views and locations. Step through the front door (or glide up via the lift if you’re feeling especially regal) and be greeted by wooden flooring that stretches as far as the eye can see, or at least as far as the open-plan living area allows. The private balcony is there for you to wave at rowers, contemplate life, or simply enjoy a coffee while pretending you’re in an architectural magazine shoot. Both bedrooms are generously sized, so there’s no need for coin tosses or awkward negotiations - everyone wins, and overnight guests will never want to leave (consider this both a compliment and a warning). The two bathrooms are so well kept that you may find yourself inventing reasons to use both, just to show them off to visitors or to avoid sharing toothpaste. The kitchen and living area are designed for everything from gourmet experiments to takeaway nights, and thanks to the aforementioned massive windows, you’ll never have to wonder what the weather is doing (or what your neighbours are up to, if you’re feeling nosey). Hackney Wick Overground is just a six minute stroll away, meaning you can be whisked off to the rest of London faster than you can finish your morning flat white (bonus points if you find a shortcut). The building itself is sought after, so you might want to start practising your “oh, this old place?” humblebrag for dinner parties. Whether you’re a first time buyer, a seasoned investor, or someone with a penchant for canalside living and a fondness for natural light, this flat ticks all the boxes - and probably a few you hadn’t even thought of yet. Don’t miss your chance to live in a home where the only thing more impressive than the square footage is the number of compliments you’ll receive from jealous friends. Book a viewing before someone else beats you to it (and yes, we’re looking at you, future canal enthusiast).
