Location
A beautiful Georgian house in heart of Hackney.
This impressive grade-II-listed Georgian terrace house offers approximately 1,561 sq ft of well-proportioned accommodation arranged across four floors, with a private walled rear garden and a wealth of period character throughout. Behind its handsome Georgian façade, the house offers a wonderfully individual and adaptable arrangement of rooms, with a sense of history and character that becomes apparent as you move through the different levels.
The lower ground floor provides a generous reception room, which could equally be utilised as a formal dining room, home office, playroom/nursery, gym, or additional reception space, offering excellent flexibility. The kitchen and a convenient WC are to the rear of the lower ground floor. This level provides a degree of separation from the principal living accommodation, making it well suited to guests, older children or those seeking privacy.
The ground floor forms the principal entertaining level, featuring – behind a radiant arched window with sash shutters – a generous through reception room and access from the hallway to the rear garden. The garden, enclosed by brick walls, provides a tranquil extension of the living space, offering a potential setting for outdoor dining, entertaining and everyday enjoyment. The front-facing windows benefit from double glazing, helping to enhance comfort and reduce environmental noise.
The first floor comprises a further large reception room/bedroom, bathed in light from the tall, shuttered windows, alongside an additional double bedroom, providing yet more flexibility for use as a family room, study or additional sleeping accommodation.
The second floor houses the principal bedroom with ample, walk-in wardrobe space, alongside a panelled period-style bathroom, creating a private upper level.
What makes the house particularly appealing is the combination of its Georgian proportions and detailing, including shutters to the front windows, reeded architraves, and Georgian fireplaces, with a highly adaptable layout. Each floor offers something distinctive, creating a home with a strong sense of character, individuality and history, while retaining the generous proportions and architectural qualities associated with a Georgian London townhouse.
The Freehold of this house is owned by the Crown Estate which a future owner could purchase, as others have done on the terrace.
