IF YOU LIVED HERE.

Culture, food, transport, nature - this part of E8 really does have it all. But before you get too caught up exploring the local scene, let's take a moment to settle in at home.

This upper ground floor apartment sits within a handsome period property, its timeless frontage hinting at the charm inside. At the front, the beautifully finished reception room is flooded with natural light from the bay window - complete with a lovely window seat - and showcases elegant features like a striking fireplace alcove, cornicing, and rich timber flooring.

The bedroom is just as thoughtfully styled, with more timber flooring, a calm neutral palette, and smart in-built storage. Meanwhile, the kitchen blends modern style with just the right amount of character - think textured surfaces, smart units, and enough space for dining. The bathroom, too, is impressive, with clean lines, a generous walk-in shower, and quality fittings.

Outside, your shared garden is a rare treat for such a central postcode. Full of greenery, it's bursting with mature foliage and feels almost enchanted - a peaceful escape from the buzz of city life.

As for beyond, you've got some fantastic amenities on your doorstep, including eclectic music venue the Shacklewell Arms, iconic Turkish restaurant Mangal 1, fine dining restaurant Case Fofo, excellent brunch spot, The Vincent, event space EartH and the Rio Cinema. This is barely even getting started though, so you'll have a fantastic time discovering your own favourite gems.

When it comes to public transport, you're served extremely well, with both Dalston Kingsland and Hackney Downs 7-11 minutes on foot, giving you some great options of routes on the Overground. Kingsland Road and Dalston Lane each have a great selection of bus routes to whiz you up to North London or down to Shoreditch. There's a good cycling infrastructure too.

A WORD FROM THE OWNER...

"Since I moved here, there have been big practical changes, including major improvements to and expansion of transport links, and the designation of my street and neighbouring ones as the St Mark's conservation area. This helps to preserve the unique character and beauty of the buildings.
Dalston has become world famous for its creativity, celebrating and attracting people from many countries to contribute to and enjoy all it has to offer.
Everywhere you go, you're aware of the different cultures and histories that have come together over the years to make it such a unique place.
If, like me, you want to feel like you're in the heart of city life, but you also love peace and quiet, if you look for it, you can find it all in Dalston."
