About
Sylvester House, Hackney, E8: One-Bedroom Fourth-Floor Apartment Set on the fourth floor of a handsome red-brick period mansion block, this bright one-bedroom apartment combines classic architectural character with a crisp, modern finish.
Extending to approximately 399 sq ft (37.0 sq m), the home has been thoughtfully arranged to make the most of every inch, with generous ceiling heights of around 2.59m and an abundance of natural light throughout.
The heart of the apartment is the open-plan kitchen and reception room, measuring an impressive 14'4" x 13'3".
Triple windows with traditional multi-pane timber frames fill the space with light, while the galley-style kitchen runs neatly along one wall with a four-ring hob and integrated sink.
There is ample room for both a comfortable seating area and dining, all finished with contemporary wood-effect flooring and clean white décor.
The double bedroom sits to the side of the living space and features a charming dormer-style window with rooftop views, plus space for a double bed, wardrobe and chest of drawers.
A separate bathroom with a full-size bath and a separate WC add flexibility and convenience, which is rare for an apartment of this size.
A practical storage cupboard off the entrance hall completes the accommodation.
The building is accessed via a well-kept courtyard entrance with CCTV, and residents benefit from a covered communal walkway with leafy open views across the neighbourhood.
With the area's cafés, green spaces and transport links close by, this is an ideal home for a first-time buyer, professional or investor. Balcony Front Balcony Entrance Way
