In the heart of Fish Island
A smartly finished two bedroom, two bathroom, two balcony apartment, set on the first floor of an impressive development in Hackney's sought-after Fish Island. With 806 sq ft to play with, it’s full of light and flawlessly finished throughout. There’s also access to shared landscaped gardens and a communal courtyard. You're just moments from the world-class facilities of the Olympic Park whilst Hackney Wick Station offers excellent transport connections; Stratford is around fifteen minutes door to door (Jubilee, Central & Elizabeth lines and DLR). In your immediate neighbourhood, you’ll find a vibrant mix of canal-side bars, restaurants, and independent cafés. With the cultural energy of East London all around, this is a fantastic home base for work, play, or simply relaxing.
If you lived here...
This well-designed apartment offers a surprising amount of space, wrapped in clean lines, clever details, and a calm, contemporary finish. From the moment you step inside, practicality meets design with a large storage cupboard to your right—ideal for coats, shoes, and life’s daily essentials.
Antiqued oak flooring runs through the hallway and open-plan living areas, bringing texture and warmth underfoot, while soft neutrals on the walls create a sense of calm throughout.
The first double bedroom is a bright, peaceful space. A Juliet balcony and wide run of windows lets in plenty of light, while plush carpet keeps it soft underfoot. A mirrored wall reflects the light around the room, expanding the space visually without adding clutter.
Opposite, the main bathroom is quietly stylish. Aqua-blue hexagonal tiles give personality to the bath-shower area, while a wall-mounted mirror with built-in lighting adds a clean, functional finish.
The second double bedroom features its own Juliet balcony—ideal for a gentle evening breeze—and another mirrored wall to enhance the light and sense of space. There’s a double built-in wardrobe and a modern ensuite bathroom with a dedicated walk-in shower, echoing the clean lines and quality finish of the main bathroom.
At the heart of the home is the open-plan living space: Naturally divided into cooking, dining, and relaxing zones without losing its flow. The kitchen is both practical and good-looking, with white cabinetry and integrated appliances sitting comfortably alongside the warm oak flooring. Large windows on two sides mean this space gets great light throughout the day.
The private balcony is fully covered, offering a spot for coffee, conversation or a few quiet minutes of fresh air in any season. The simple metal balustrade keeps the view open and unobstructed.
Designed with care and built for real living, this home is a great fit whether you're hosting, unwinding, or just enjoying a bit of space to call your own.

A word from the expert...
“I feel right at home in Hackney, although i’m originally from Greece. You can be anyone, wear whatever you like and always feel welcome. The multiculturalism here comes across in the diversity of the cafés, restaurants, shops and bars. From specialty coffee shops and Michelin star restaurants to beautiful parks and art galleries, Hackney has something for everyone.
Weekends at Victoria Park or Broadway market are filled with great community energy, international delicacies and local artisan creations. For dog lovers, the marshes are beautiful for afternoon and weekend walks with your four-legged friends. And while you’re there, you can stop by the river Lea at the Princess of Wales for a Sunday roast, Here East for brunch, or Crate Brewery for pizza and a local beer.
Properties in the area vary from characterful Victorian and Georgian houses to charming local authority red-brick blocks and beautifully designed modern developments with communal roof terraces.
I have found my home in Hackney and it holds a very special place in my heart.”
