2 Bed Maisonette For Sale

This striking two-bedroom maisonette lies in Clapton, on the edge of Millfields Park and the popular Chatsworth Road. Encompassing three storeys and a private front patio, the apartment is generous, compelling and bright, with original floorboards and a considered selection of paint colours. Clapton and Homerton Overground stations are both close by and run services to Liverpool Street and Stratford/Highbury and Islington respectively.







The Tour







Positioned at the south easterly end of Millfields Park in a quiet residential pocket of Clapton, this three-storey home is set back from the street behind a private front patio. Entry is to the hall on the ground floor, with terrazzo tiles and spacious built-in cupboards.







From here, stairs lead to the first-floor landing, where two deep cupboards provide handy storage. At the rear is a spacious and light-filled reception room. Crisp white ceilings are paired with exposed limewashed floorboards, and there are two windows with views over treetops.







Across the hall and overlooking the front garden is an open-plan kitchen and dining room. The walls are painted a vibrant green (Apple Smiles by Paint and Paper Library), and south-facing windows flood the space with soft morning light. Understated white kitchen units are organised in a functional L-shape configuration and have oak countertops. Integrated appliances include an induction hob and oven. Banquette seating with integrated storage beneath carves out a sociable dining area.







The staircase ascends to the top floor, with two similarly proportioned bedrooms. The quiet principal bedroom is at the rear. A second bedroom is positioned at the front and is currently used as a home office, its walls washed in Desert Rose also by Paint and Paper Library.







A refined and refreshing approach continues into the bathroom, which is set beneath high, vaulted ceilings and exposed beams. Bright and predominantly clad in square white tiles, it has a large shower illuminated via a skylight, built-in shelves and a heated towel rail.







Outdoor Space







At the front, a generous south-facing garden is bordered by wood screens on either side, ensuring privacy and quiet. It can accommodate a sitting area, making it the perfect spot to unwind or share a glass in the warm season.







The Area







Caldecott Way is brilliantly positioned near the southern edge of Millfields Park in Clapton, a short five-minute walk from Hackney Marshes and the banks of the River Lea.







Chatsworth Road, which runs north from Homerton to Millfield’s Park and Hackney Marshes, is a popular area of Clapton, in part due to independent shops, cafés and restaurants, including Leo’s, ramen café Men, specialist suppliers L’epicerie 56 and The London Borough of Jam. Fink's Chats serves excellent food and coffee, and there is a weekly food market on Sundays. Neighbourhood gem, The Castle Cinema, is independently crowdfunded and shows blockbusters and arthouse cinema alike.







Other popular local spots in the area include Uchi, My Neighbours the Dumplings, 107, Lucky & Joy and Mambow. The Elderfield pub is a short walk away and is a favourite among residents, as is Dalla, The Chesham Arms and The Spread Eagle, London’s first vegan pub.







For green space, Millfields Park and Hackney Marshes are only a few minutes walk from the apartment, while Hackney Downs, with its basketball and tennis courts, athletics track, and children’s play area, is 15 minutes on foot.







The closest stations are Clapton, which runs Weaver line services to Liverpool Street in approximately 10 minutes, and Homerton, which has Mildmay lines to Stratford and Highbury & Islington. There are also round-the-clock bus routes to central London.
