If you lived here...

This contemporary home sits within a beautifully composed brick building, its warm tones and crisp, geometric form giving it a confident presence on the corner. Deep-set windows and sculpted recesses create texture and rhythm across the façade, lending the architecture a quiet sense of strength and individuality within the surrounding streetscape.

Stepping indoors, a bright hallway sets a welcoming tone. Pale flooring and soft, clean walls create an immediate sense of ease, with a clear, flowing arrangement that guides you naturally towards the main living space. The open-plan kitchen, dining and lounge area unfolds with a gentle lightness, its atmosphere enhanced by multiple windows and a glazed door that work together to draw in daylight throughout the day. Timber flooring keeps the room feeling warm, while the central island anchors the space and offers a natural gathering point. The room moves comfortably between cooking, dining and unwinding, with plenty of flexibility for arranging furniture to suit your lifestyle. The glazed door opens onto a sheltered balcony, framed by rich brickwork and offering an inviting corner for fresh air, a morning coffee or a quiet pause above the street below.

The bedroom continues the home’s calm, airy feel, with pale finishes, built-in wardrobes and a simple layout that encourages rest. The bathroom completes the interior with softly textured surfaces and a recessed timber-framed mirror that adds both character and a practical ledge, contributing to an overall sense of tranquillity and understated style.

The neighbourhood surrounding the property offers a lively blend of independent spots, green retreats and cultural pockets, all within an easy wander. Coffee lovers are well catered for, with Ngopi UK serving thoughtfully crafted cups nearby, while Casa Fofo brings a refined, intimate dining experience close to home. The Three Compasses sits just moments away, offering a relaxed place to meet friends, and Café Oto adds something altogether different, shifting effortlessly from daytime café to one of London’s most intriguing experimental music venues after dark. For outdoor space, both Hackney Downs and London Fields provide generous stretches of green, perfect for weekend strolls or lazy afternoons, with Pub on the Park adding a friendly stopping point. Ridley Road Market brings colour and character with its bustling stalls, and Broadway Market offers an enjoyable mix of food, fashion and local makers, rounding out a vibrant, well-connected setting.

A word from the owner...

"i’ve adored my time living in Maison Brique. The flat has a chic, youthful energy to it - colourful touches, modern finishes, and a laid-back, creative feel. It’s the kind of place where you can throw on a record, have friends over for a glass of wine, or just curl up after a long day and feel instantly at home.

The neighbourhood has been the best part. Sitting between Hackney Downs and London Fields means weekends are a mix of park walks, coffee stops, and lazy afternoons on the grass. There’s always somewhere new to try - from tiny bakeries and natural wine bars to pop-ups, markets, and late-night spots. Broadway Market on a Saturday, Dalston on a Friday, lido swims in summer... It never gets boring.

Transport’s easy, the vibe is creative and social, and everything you need is within a short wander.

I’ll really miss the energy and character of this place - it’s been a brilliant home in one of the most exciting corners of London."
