House For Sale £800,000
This beautiful and bright two-bedroom house lies on Glaskin Mews in Hackney, a short stroll from Victoria Park. Situated on a secure mews and arranged over the raised and lower ground floors, the home has a simple, neutral aesthetic and is perfectly adapted for contemporary living. There is a secluded courtyard garden, plus a secondary garden which is home to a garden studio.
The Tour
The house is one of four mews houses nestled in between the rear gardens of homes on the surrounding roads. It is accessed through a discreet entrance set back from Danesdale Road and via a secure entry system, which opens onto a private courtyard.
A decked walkway leads to the house and its timber front door. Surrounded by dark grey timber frames, there are additional side panels and arched glazing above to allow natural light into the hallway. To the left is a double-height walk-in wet room with a Velux window, while straight ahead are two sets of stairs; one leading up to the bedrooms and family bathroom, the other leading down to the living room, kitchen and courtyard garden.
A pared-back approach defines the interior spaces, which have white walls and well-placed fenestration that aids the flow of natural light. The muted tones are perfectly suited to the neutral decoration and furnishings the current owners have employed, but would work equally well as a backdrop for splashes of colour and are extremely versatile in terms of future decorative potential.
Engineered oak flooring runs across the lower ground floor. The living room spans the depth of the plan, with a dining area at the rear and a light-filled kitchen opposite. A set of glazed French doors at the front of the living room open to the secluded courtyard garden, while a double-height section of ceiling in the kitchen with two Velux windows allows plenty of natural light into the space. The kitchen is complete with a solid laminate worktop and cabinetry in white.
The main bedroom lies at the front of the plan at raised ground floor level. A vaulted ceiling with two large windows, plus two smaller windows behind the bedhead, lets in natural light. Dark grey carpets ground the space and wardrobes run along one wall. The second bedroom doubles as an office and has two Velux windows over an open section of eaves storage. The family bathroom is finished in white, with the exception of the black and white geometric pattern floor tiles. There are metro tiles to the lower sections of the wall, and an obscured rectangular window over the curved freestanding bath that ensures natural light abounds.
Outdoor Space
The secluded courtyard garden lies below the decked access walkway, lending it an atmosphere akin to a sunken conversation pit. Bounded by brick walls and laid with timber decking, there is a raised bed to one side and an abundance of shrubs and climbers, creating a thoroughly verdant spot.
The house sits at one end of the mews and as such comes with an additional garden to the side of the access walkway, which is laid with dark slate shingle and planted with fruit bushes, shrubs and a mature tree. There is a garden studio with black timber cladding in one corner.
The Area
The house is perfectly located between the pubs, shops, restaurants and Sunday markets of Victoria Park Village, Hackney Wick and Chatsworth Road, in an increasingly popular developing area of east London. As well as a sophisticated collection of shops, cafes and pubs, the street gives way on Sunday to a weekly weekend market with a tantalising mix of food stalls. The green spaces of the Olympic Park, Victoria Park and Hackney Downs are all a short walk away.
Homerton and Hackney Wick stations are equidistant, running London Overground services to Highbury & Islington (Victoria Line) in one direction, and Stratford International (Jubilee Line) in the other.
