There's so much to love about this home in trendy East London, we don't know where to begin. First, it's got plenty of space. Spread over three floors, it's perfect for large families, with a sociable kitchen and cosy lounge ideal for relaxed evenings at home. Plus, it's brimming with interesting artwork and lovely personal touches that add so much personality to the place. Then, there's the quaint garden. Spend summer evenings lounging on the rattan furniture, sipping cocktails and grilling on the barbecue whilst the kids play with the collection of outdoor toys. And, last but not least, it's in an excellent location, just a five-minute walk from Victoria Park – one of the nicest green spaces in London – and Victoria Village, where you'll find plenty of artisan bakeries, delicatessens, local cafes and restaurants to try when you don't feel like cooking. Whether you're smelling the roses at Columbia Road Flower Market (a twenty-five-minute walk), exploring Olympic Park (a fifteen-minute bus ride) or heading into central London (London Fields Overground is a twelve-minute stroll away), this is a fab family-friendly spot to take it all in.

About London Fields

Less raucous than neighbouring Dalston and less family-oriented than Stoke Newington, if this corner of Hackney has a defining characteristic it’s the streetlife. Maybe it's the influence of the area’s large and ever-growing Italian community — with tables and chairs lining the Broadway Market thoroughfare, cocktails and cabaret seating outside railway arches and picnickers in the park in all weathers. The park is also home to the London Fields Lido - London's only 50-metre heated outdoor pool, open whatever the weather. Dive in and join the hardy regulars who swim all year round!
