2 bed Flat For Sale £625,000
Situated on the top floor of a late-Victorian apartment block, high above the bustle of Stoke Newington High Street, is this spacious two-bedroom flat. The light-filled interiors have been carefully treated by the current owner, a furniture designer, who has taken an intuitive and material-led approach to create a contemporary space that honours the fabric of the period building.
The Tour
Entry to the apartment is on the third floor, accessed via a set of stairs. It measures over 880 sq ft internally and the plan is aligned east-west, so that light penetrates the space throughout the day. There is a sense of flow between the large open-plan kitchen and living area, with a stripped partition wall that reveals the studwork timber. The kitchen has a range cooker and Dzek Marmoleum terrazzo worktops by Max Lamb paired with Vola fittings.
A restrained approach has been taken throughout, evident in the exposed brick walls and beams, and the addition of bespoke elements such as built-in cabinetry, concrete hearths and cast iron radiators. There are far-reaching westerly views from the two huge windows in the living space and original pine floorboards run underfoot in every room.
There are two large double bedrooms, the master with an exposed brick wall and built-in study area. The windows are aluminium framed, with the exception of the bathroom which has Crittall windows with reeded glass. This room is finished with duck-egg blue wood panelling and a freestanding sink.
The Area
The apartment is located within easy reach of the independent shops, cafes, restaurants and pubs of Stoke Newington and Newington Green; Esters and Jolene are particular neighbourhood favourites. Much-loved Church Street is home to The Spence Bakery, Whole Foods and The Good Egg, as well as many other independent businesses. A short walk away is Primeur; recently described as “the perfect neighbourhood restaurant”, it serves modern European cuisine and natural wine on nearby Petherton Road.
There are several green spaces nearby; Abney Park and Cemetery and Clissold Park with its tennis courts, cafe, beautiful lakes, and resident deer are local favourites. Stoke Newington is very popular with young families, in part due to the number of good schools in the area. Particularly noteworthy are the Betty Layward Primary and Clissold School.
Stoke Newington station is around five minutes’ walk and runs London Overground services to Liverpool Street in around ten minutes or Seven Sisters in around four minutes, for connections to the Underground. A number of buses run into central London and the neighbouring Dalston area.
