Brickworks Says
Set over the top two floors of a Victorian terrace, this home has an ageless appeal thanks to the balance of form and function. The current owners have focused on using natural materials such as bespoke plywood kitchen units and oak floorboards. There's also a sense of tranquillity due to light and space and a lovely integration with nature––open the doors to the balcony and enjoy the morning sun, overlooking mature trees that provide privacy and a view of the changing seasons.
The living space continues the simple yet beautiful aesthetic, with handy built-in units and a convenient nook for an office. Upstairs, both bedrooms are in keeping with the clean lines, neutral decor, and views of the treetops. The bathroom is all square-tile minimalism but has a separate rainfall shower and bath, both with Vola fittings for maximum indulgence.
Cecilia Road is a charming street in one of East London's most appealing neighbourhoods. Just down the road are Dalston and London Fields, with more eateries, coffee shops, and night spots than you can shake a stick at. A bit further beyond is Stoke Newington Church Street, which is lined with stellar, independent stores. And when you need it, quiet calm is moments away––wander down to Hackney Downs Park, Clissold Park, London Fields, or the wilds of Hackney Marshes.
The Owners Say
We have loved living in our flat! Its location in the heart of Dalston is great, with amazing restaurants, cafés, and pubs all within 200 yards of our door. It is also wonderful to be within walking distance of Hackney Downs, London Fields, and the brilliant Wilton Way with its cafés and bakeries.
The kitchen gets the morning light, and the double doors out onto the balcony mean we are often out there for breakfast, as well as evening meals and BBQs in the spring and summer. The trees at the back make it feel like living within a mini forest––we hear birdsong throughout the year! The living room catches the afternoon and evening sun. Upstairs, we love the big bedroom with its fitted wardrobes, and the bathroom is perfect for a relaxing bath and letting go of the stresses of the day.
