The House

This cleverly-designed house is lovingly called Hackney Hideaway, thanks to its tranquil and discrete location. It was designed by architect Lucas Facer.

Upon entering you are greeted by a light and airy space, with two short solid Oak stairs leading you into the sleeping quarters and the living area.

The beautiful open-plan living has double-height ceilings. The sitting area is at the front of the property with the kitchen discretely located at the back. Currently fitted with a sofa-bed it occasionally doubles as a guest room.

There is more than what first meets the eye in this space - a large storage space runs underneath the entrance hallway and it's the perfect space to store seasonal items, suitcases, etc. The TV is hidden away by a built-in cabinet. There's also a hidden drawer in the staircase.

The kitchen was carefully crafted using a combination of birch ply, Oak dovetail, stainless steel countertops, and Forbo laminate. It is fully equipped with integrated Neff appliances, including a dishwasher, Franke sink, recessed shelving, and a peninsula fitted with a retractable pocket-style panel that creates a comfortable eating table.

These living spaces are incredibly bright, thanks to the generous utilisation of roof lights and tall windows. The layout maximises the floor space, with built-in bespoke ply storage walls surrounding the space and a cleverly imagined built-in TV cupboard and hidden drawer in the steps of the stair.

The shower room is also located at this level, accessed via a bespoke curved double door. The soft pink tiling, cast concrete sink and shower tray, and brushed brass fixtures afford the room a distinct personality. A generous storage and laundry cupboard is accessed via a concealed door in this room.

The bedroom is found at the top of the property. A double room with a built-in wardrobe and extra drawer space, integrated bedside lamps, and a bedside storage nook that also acts as a clever internal widow to the other room. The large roof window in this room opens and closes remotely.

There is underfloor heating throughout and a towel radiator in the shower room. There's also LED secondary lighting integrated throughout.

This house is a fantastic opportunity for those searching for a first home, pied-e-Terre, or easily managed rental. It has been upgrade to make short-let operations a breeze.
