Detached Victorian villa built in the 1880s, combining original features and a warm, natural palette with a more modern, spacious and rear extension flooded with natural light.

The house front is yellow brick with a huge bay window and a mature privet hedge and private garden.

There is a generous hallway with original coving and floorboards.

The living room has raw plaster walls and more period features including the original shutters.

The back room is a rich palette of blues and ochres and is filled with books.

The kitchen is flooded with light. The cabinetry is bespoke and handmade out of Douglas Fir with a soft-hued polished concrete floor and huge glass skylight. The back doors open up fully on to the lush South-West facing garden and there is light from late morning until dusk. The garden has a lawn and mature Mimosa, Olive and Fir trees as well as a garden office nestled at the back.

Upstairs there are three bedrooms.

There are two bathrooms – one upstairs and one downstairs.

There is very little noise and traffic due to a low traffic neighbourhood.

Local council is Hackney.
