Mare Street, Hackney, London E8


Description
Rich in character is this splendid three storey Georgian home dating back to the 1780’s. Steeped in history, Joseph Spackman, a pewterer from Cornhill in the City of London, obtained in 1771 a lease of 51 years which includes the current 224 Mare Street. Spackman built the terrace, reserving the largest house (1 Spackman’s Buildings now 224 Mare Street) as his own residence which marked the beginning of Hackney Village.

This magnificent house exudes a delightful air of charm and character and has retained many original features including sash and case windows, chunky wooden floorboards, coving, fireplaces and complemented by stunning mantlepieces.

The raised ground floor comprises of a kitchen diner with views over the garden and also has the added benefit of a pantry, laundry room/cloak room and a generously proportioned reception room with dramatic bow-window, which was added in the 1800's. The reception room offers an abundance of light and has an array of fine period features.
