Big Hill, Hackney

This well-presented two bedroom ground floor flat offers a welcoming home with a private terrace and an open-plan kitchen and living area. Set in a well-connected corner of Upper Clapton next to the River Lea, you're within walking distance of Clapton Station, Springfield Park and a growing collection of independent cafés and neighbourhood favourites nearby.

IF YOU LIVED HERE…

Step inside and you'll find a central hallway leading through to the open-plan kitchen and reception room. The kitchen and dining area is a generous space, with white cabinetry, dark worktops, open shelving and plenty of room for a dining table. The living area beyond has a lovely sense of personality, with a warm yellow feature wall, shelving and cabinetry, and a dedicated workspace tucked into the corner, ideal for working from home. A glazed door opens directly onto the private garden, bringing natural light into the room.
Outside, the garden extends approximately 28 feet, with a paved seating area, brick walls and established planting. There's room to enjoy a morning coffee, dine outdoors or spend an afternoon with friends, while the combination of paving and greenery makes it an easy space to enjoy throughout the warmer months.

Both bedrooms are generously proportioned double rooms, almost identical in size, offering plenty of flexibility for different living arrangements. One benefits from direct access to the private patio garden, while the other enjoys a pleasant outlook over the greenery. Both have ample space for a double bed and additional furnishings, making them equally comfortable as main bedrooms, guest accommodation or a combination of sleeping and working space. The family bathroom is finished with white tiling, a bath with overhead shower and a vanity unit, while two hallway cupboards provide useful storage. There's also handy bike storage within the building.

A WORD FROM THE OWNER...

"I love stepping out of the building and having green spaces in each direction down the river. A lunchtime stroll on the marshes, a bike ride for miles without hitting a road, despite being in zone 2. Sitting on the sunny patio with my coffee. I enjoy my gorgeous kitchen and hosting friends for dinner. I’m so happy to be part of the Heron Court community, with neighbours who help each other out and a handy building what’s app group. The flat is so secluded and quiet, but a stone’s throw from the bustle and lovely vibes of the Anchor and Hope, the Lee Valley Rowing Club and Springfield Park and its lovely cafe. It's great to be so close to Blok, the Tram Store, Dialogue Café, Sodo Pizza and the station. Such a lot to love! It’s hard to leave!"
