Bracklyn Street, Hackney, London, N1

A beautifully presented two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment within a contemporary development inspired by the area’s warehouse architecture, moments from Shoreditch Park and Regent’s Canal.

Arranged across approximately 986 sq ft on the third floor, the apartment combines generous lateral living with full-height Crittall-style glazing, warm timber flooring and a carefully considered palette of materials. A private balcony extends the living space outdoors, while underfloor heating and cycle storage add everyday practicality.


INSIDE

The building’s architectural character is apparent from the entrance, where exposed concrete, dark panelling and pendant lighting create an understated industrial feel.

Within the apartment, a spacious entrance hallway provides useful storage and a separate utility cupboard, leading through to the impressive open-plan reception, kitchen and dining room. Measuring over eight metres at its widest point, this is a wonderfully sociable space, with clearly defined areas for cooking, entertaining and relaxing. Full-height windows draw in natural light, while timber flooring brings warmth to the clean lines of the interior.

The kitchen sits neatly along two walls, pairing dark lower cabinetry with metallic-effect wall cupboards, pale worktops and a mirrored splashback. Integrated appliances, including Siemens ovens, maintain a streamlined finish, with ample storage and preparation space. There is plenty of room for a dining table alongside, positioned beside the glazed door to the balcony.

Opening directly from the living space, the private balcony offers room for seating and a small table, with a glass balustrade allowing views across the surrounding trees and neighbouring buildings. It is an inviting spot for morning coffee or an evening drink, with space for planting to soften the setting.

The development also provides cycle storage, particularly useful with Regent’s Canal so close by.

At the opposite end of the apartment, both double bedrooms enjoy excellent natural light through tall, black-framed windows. The principal bedroom has a particularly generous footprint, with a wardrobe area leading through to its own en-suite shower room. The second bedroom is also comfortably proportioned, making it equally suitable for guests or a combination of sleeping and working from home.

A separate bathroom opens from the hallway, finished with muted tiling, black fittings, a countertop basin and a bath with an overhead shower.

Underfloor heating runs throughout the apartment and it benefits from a Vent-Axia mechanical ventilation and heat recovery system, with a night-time purge mode to help keep the interior comfortable during warmer months.

NEIGHBOURHOOD & CONNECTIONS

Bracklyn Street sits in a well-connected pocket of N1, moments from the open green space of Shoreditch Park and the waterside paths of Regent’s Canal. The towpath offers an attractive route for walking and cycling towards Haggerston, Broadway Market and beyond, bringing much of east London within easy reach.

There are excellent options for eating and drinking close by, including The Baring for a neighbourhood dinner and drinks, and The Narrowboat for a relaxed afternoon overlooking the canal. A little further on foot, Pophams is a favourite for coffee and pastries. Shoreditch, Angel and Upper Street offer a wider collection of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and bars, while Clerkenwell is also readily accessible.

Old Street station is approximately 0.7 miles away, providing Northern line connections. Essex Road offers further rail services, while Highbury & Islington connects with the Victoria line, London Overground and National Rail.
