Welcome to Flat 96, Banister House, a large family apartment
in the heart of Homerton, Hackney. With three spacious bedrooms and a large family
kitchen, this flat was designed with families or sharers in mind. Set amongst a bustling community
with fantastic transport links, surrounding green space and playgrounds, reputable
schools and excellent shopping experiences, this flat is the perfect choice for families to
lay their roots and create a home together.
Set on the first floor, the entrance hall leads you directly towards the living room to your
left, and a cloakroom with wash basin and WC to your right.
The living/reception room has a fantastic amount of space, and its decorative muntin
window gives the room an elegant, period feel. There’s plenty of room for a three-piece
seating arrangement, alongside any storage furniture you may need.
Next to the living room is a spacious L-shaped kitchen, which continues the period-style
aesthetic with double muntin windows, a range cooker and fully-tiled quarry-style
splashback. It merges seamlessly with a contemporary style, offering a breakfast bar in
addition to floor space for a small dining table, if required. Under counter space is
available for a dishwasher, and there’s extensive worktop space for appliances.
The family bathroom and seperate utility room can be found next to the kitchen on the left. The bathroom includes a WC, wash basin, bath with overhead electric shower, plus an
additional shower cubicle. A large hopper window illuminates the room with natural light,
adding a luxurious aesthetic once again with its period-style muntins.
To the right of the home lies its three double bedrooms. All three offer plenty of room for
double beds, plus additional desks and/or wardrobes for clothing storage. If not required
for immediate family members, each room could also be put to use as a playroom, home
office/study, guest bedroom, or even a walk-in wardrobe.
Flat 96 would make an ideal home for a family looking to settle down in a friendly,
sociable neighbourhood, with abundant space to spend together at home. We
aren’t expecting this home to be available for long, so make sure you’ve booked
your viewing by calling us today. Don’t miss out.
