Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Stepping into this wonderfully bright apartment, you can immediately tell that the owner, an interior designer, has poured her love and knowledge of style into its careful curation. Retro chic meets modern elegance here, with the host's hand-selected art and furnishings making bold statements at every turn. From the rare Viola and Calcutta marble in the kitchen to the dining nook's built-in banquette seat and parquet floors throughout, you’ll feel perfectly at ease here as you flick through one of the shelves’ many books while relaxing on the sofa or while enjoying a meal at the window-side table and taking in views of leafy London Fields. Perch by the Juliet balcony here with a glass of wine in the evening – you’ll love the soft glow of light that makes the whole room dazzle. With a stylish bedroom to wake up in too and a rainfall shower to get mornings started on the right foot, you’ve got everything you need for a comfortable, carefree stay. When it comes to exploring nearby, walk just across the street for a picnic or a stroll through London Fields or walk just ten minutes to explore the vast expanse of Victoria Park. You’re also a four-minute walk from vibrant Broadway Market and a fifteen-minute stroll from both colourful Columbia Road Flower Market and Hackney Central.

Local guide
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!

Eat Pizza made in A Disco Ball Oven
Bob along to Lardo for lunch after a hectic day exploring 'The East'. Hip, industrial-chic pizzeria that is intimate and serves possibly the best pizza in London.
Go for a dip in London Fields Lido
A heated outdoor swimming pool set right in London Fields. This lido has a sun deck and sunbathing area in addition to a lovely café. It's also floodlit so has a lovely evening ambience.
Grab lunch at E5 Bakehouse
The E5 Bakehouse is an East London artisan bakery and coffee shop using baking traditions from their ancestors. They also do weekly bread courses and the Curried Red Lentil Soup is delicious.
Marvel the wonders at Viktor Wynd
Fans of oddities are going to have the best time here - the only Curiosity Museum in the country. With everything from taxidermy to Happy Meal Toys, it's an incredible collection.
Dine at Buen Ayre
A delightful Argentinian restaurant serving mouthwatering parrilla char-grilled steaks and delicious red wines. Enjoy the generous portions, attentive service, and cozy atmosphere in this compact establishment.
Pick your favourite Beer or cocktail at The Cat & Mutton
Sitting proudly at the helm of Broadway Market, this pub has been welcoming its costermongers and consumers for 300 years. And up a spiral staircase there is Pearl's cocktail lounge - your pick.
Admire the Rooftop views from Netil360
There's one thing you should know about this pared-down London Fields rooftop bar with panoramic views - there’s quite a bit of a walk (nine flights of stairs to be precise) but it's well worth it.
Wander around Mare Street Market
Mare Street Market is a great spot to while away a weekend afternoon. It has a restaurant and a selection of local businesses, including a record shop, florist, bakery, deli and cocktail bar.
