Cosy in the winter, cool in the summer, although this is a basement flat it is quite light with front windows looking out to trees on Hackney Downs and the back windows looking out to a large shared garden. The sun rises at the back and sets through the front window.
Tenure - Leasehold
Description
The front door leads to a hallway shared with one other flat which offers additional storage and places to hang coats and store shoes.
The inner hall leads to the back bedroom which looks out to the garden. Next door is the bigger bedroom with a door to the garden. Doors on either side of the corridor leading to the kitchen and bathroom. The big front room is looked over by the kitchen and the bay looks out to the front garden.
There are 16 flats at Sunnyside (no2/3 Queensdown) and all owners belong to Queensdown Ltd, the company which owns the freehold with leases for each flat of 990 years. All pay £150 a month which covers building insurance and pay for works to the buildings, decided at meetings of Queensdown Ltd.
A new boiler was installed in November 2021 and new windows were put in at the front in 2018 and in the smaller back room in 2013.
Damp was treated in 2009 in the back room (paid for by Queensdown) and the flat was checked again in 2018.
What the owner has to say...
I have loved living here over the past 12 years. It is a quiet road with a beautiful outlook on Hackney Downs and Hackney Marshes nearby. There are good transport links and excellent schools nearby. The community at Sunnyside are friendly and supportive and it has been a very special place to live. Now my children have left I need to move to a home more suited to my present situation. I really hope someone will come to enjoy my home in the way that I have loved it.
