A WORD FROM THE OWNER… Located in a friendly and characterful block, for us this flat has offered the perfect first step on to the property ladder. We have loved living here and, although it is the right time for us to move, we will be very sad to leave. It has such a bright and open feel that it's a great sanctuary to come back to after work. The block is great with such diverse neighbours, including a renowned poet, a musician and a burlesque dancer. The communal gardens give the opportunity to relax in the sunshine or enjoy a chat with the neighbours. For larger green spaces, it is only a few minutes from Hackney Downs, the River Lea and Hackney Marshes. There are many great pubs, cafes and restaurants in Clapton and you're only 10 minutes away from so many other great areas in East London; Hackney, Stoke Newington, London Fields, Chatsworth Road and Hackney Wick. On our doorstep we've got the Tram Store, for delicious coffee and brunch, Sodo Clapton, for amazing sourdough pizza and The Crooked Billet for a few drinks with friends. There's even a high end gym, Blok Clapton, just round the corner. Being only a few minutes walk from the station means we have felt very connected to the centre of London, with trains every 15 minutes offering easy access to the City and the rest of London.
