Full Details
Positioned on a quiet, tree-lined street – among the most sought-after in London Fields – this mid Victorian terrace has a handsome London stock brick façade and traditional sash windows.
Inside, the plan unfolds with a generous double reception room, with light filtering through the deep bay window and stripped wooden floors running underfoot and throughout the home. Original cornicing, shutters and cast-iron radiators speak to the home’s heritage, while the working fireplaces bring warmth and character to the rooms. To the rear, a second reception room offers flexibility for an intimate sitting room, secondary dining space or play area, with French doors opening directly onto the garden and drawing greenery inward.
The kitchen sits beyond, newly renovated and designed to introduce plenty of light from the expansive panes of glazing, including an original sash window to the side, a picture window looking into the side return and bi-folding doors that open fully onto the garden. Cabinetry finished by HØLTE is executed in a thoughtful two-tone palette of soft pink and rich oak, grounded by Caesarstone fresh concrete quartz worktops and tiles by Fired Earth. Open shelving lends an easy, unfussy quality, while the SMEG oven and hob are ready for the serious cook. It is a room that feels both practical and full of character. There is also a handy WC on this floor.
Ascending to the first floor and there are three generous double bedrooms with traditional features including Victorian skirting boards, high ceilings, sash windows and cast-iron radiators. There is also a brightly decorated family bathroom.
There is also clear potential to extend the home further (subject to the usual consents), as many houses on the street have already done. Options could include a side return to increase the width and openness of the ground floor, extending into the expansive cellar, or utilising the loft space to create dormer bedrooms and an additional bathroom.
Outside, the south-facing garden is well-proportioned and cleverly arranged. The limestone patio sits directly off the house is set up for the enthusiastic cook with an impressive set up including a WWOO concrete outdoor kitchen and Big Green Egg. A pathway draws the eye to the rear, flanked by planted borders with integrated lighting that comes into its own at dusk, while low-maintenance artificial grass extends across the garden. Electricity and water pipes have already been run to the back of the garden, offering clear potential for a future studio or workspace.

Moments from London Fields, the house sits within one of Hackney’s most quietly sought-after pockets – a neighbourhood defined by independent food, neighbourhood institutions and an easy proximity to green space.
At its heart is Broadway Market, a short walk away and still one of East London’s most characterful high streets. Independent to its core, the street is lined with long-standing favourites and newer arrivals alike – from neighbourhood bakeries and booksellers to florists, wine bars and the much-loved Saturday market. Nearby Netil Market and the quieter stretch of Wilton Way add to the mix, creating a compact but remarkably rich ecosystem of independent shops, cafés and restaurants.
The area has quietly become one of London’s most compelling food destinations. Pophams and E5 Bakehouse are both close by for morning coffee and pastries, while Climpson & Sons remains a long-standing local institution.
The Prince Arthur serves produce-led cooking and a considered wine list, making it as suited to long Sunday lunches as it is to impromptu midweek dinners. Nearby, The Spurstowe Arms offers a more laid-back but equally beloved setting – with pizzas and generous seasonal plates, good beer and a welcoming neighbourhood atmosphere that spills onto the pavement in the warmer months. Mare Street Market, set within a beautifully restored industrial building, offers an all-day setting for everything from coffee and casual lunches to evening drinks.
In the evenings, the neighbourhood reveals an impressive depth of restaurants – including Elliots, Café Cecilia beside the canal, and Sune, each known for their thoughtful cooking and relaxed atmosphere. Bambi brings a relaxed, late-night energy with natural wines, good food and a lively crowd.
London Fields itself is just moments away, with its much-loved heated Lido, tennis courts and open lawns creating a rare sense of space in the city. The surrounding streets form part of a Low Traffic Neighbourhood, meaning through-traffic is limited and the area remains notably calm and residential throughout the day.
Connectivity is excellent. London Fields station sits just across the park, offering swift links into Liverpool Street, while both Haggerston and Hackney Central Overground stations are a short walk away, providing additional routes across the city. From Haggerston, trains run via Highbury & Islington and Whitechapel, giving quick access to the Victoria Line and the Elizabeth Line.
The area is also particularly well regarded for schooling, with a number of highly rated primary and secondary schools within easy reach. Gayhurst Community School (an Ofsted rated Outstanding primary school) is a 3-minute walk away.
