"This beautifully renovated two bedroom apartment sits on the first floor of an early Victorian building in Stoke Newington s Cazenove Conservation Area. Its elevated position and palette of soft neutrals work to create an inviting, calming atmosphere. An established south facing communal garden lies at the front of the building, enclosed by mature hedging. Cazenove Road is minutes from Stoke Newington Church Street, with its independent shops and wonderful restaurants.

The Tour

Cazenove Road is a predominantly residential street peppered with mature London plane trees. A grand communal entranceway, reached via a short set of steps, opens onto a staircase that ascends to the first floor, where this apartment lies.

Wide oak floorboards extend from the front door, which opens onto a bright, spacious central hallway. Ahead lies the kitchen, with a well preserved original sash window that frames a leafy aspect. Terrazzo floor tiles emulate the off white tones of cabinets lining the opposite wall, and open shelves stretch the breadth and height of the room, making the most of its elongated proportions.

The reception room is adjacent; as with the kitchen, its southerly orientation draws in a day long brightness. Bespoke open shelves and cabinets draw the eye upwards and provide a dedicated space for books. Walls have been painted Elephant s Breath by Farrow and Ball, a soft, muted grey that pairs wonderfully with the School House White walls elsewhere.

There are two double bedrooms, both with an excellent provision of storage. The second bedroom is a versatile space, currently configured as an office but with space for a double bed or a sofa bed.

The bathroom has been recently refreshed with crisp white tiles, contrasting matt black fixtures and Lusso Stone taps.

Outdoor Space

The house is set back from the street behind thick, leafy hedging, allowing for a well tended communal garden area. Its south facing orientation means it receives direct sunlight throughout the day the perfect spot to plant and grow vegetables, or host a barbecue on a hot summer s day.

The Area

The apartment is in the centre of Stoke Newington, close to both Stoke Newington High Street and Church Street, with an almost endless choice of independent shops, restaurants, pubs, and caf s.

Neighbourhood favourites include Rasa for excellent south Indian vegetarian food, The Good Egg for brunch, and The Auld Shillelagh for arguably the best pint of Guinness in the area. The local Whole Foods branch is conveniently located just a short walk away from the house, as is Stoke Newington Bookshop. A much loved farmers market opens every Saturday in front of St Paul s Church, with a wide range of organic produce. Luminary Bakery is the perfect catch up coffee spot after a class at nearby Yogahome.

There are plenty of green spaces within walking distance, including Clissold, Abney and Springfield parks.

Newington Green is also within walking distance and home to local favourites Jolene, Cadet, and Primeur. Dalston is to the south of Stoke Newington High Street and home to the likes of live music bar Mu, from the team behind Brilliant Corners, Mangal II, and The Dusty Knuckle.

Popular with young families, there are great schooling options in the area, including Betty Layward Primary and Clissold School.

Stoke Newington station is close by and runs regular London Overground services to Liverpool Street and Seven Sisters. Several bus routes run into the surrounding area and into central London.
