5 bed terraced house for sale

Glenarm Road, Clapton E5

An architecturally compelling and historically intriguing home, positioned just moments from the energy and charm of Chatsworth Road.

Behind its striking deep purple façade, reminiscent of a New York brownstone, this remarkable house blends period character with confident contemporary design. The exterior makes a bold first impression, while inside the atmosphere is warm, voluminous and beautifully composed.

Picture windows invite natural light deep into the house, enhancing the impressive ceiling heights and creating a wonderful sense of scale. Throughout, original features anchor the home in its history, with exposed wood flooring, elegant cornicing and fireplaces adding texture and authenticity to the principal rooms.

The sculptural kitchen extension forms the heart of the house. Architecturally expressive yet highly functional, it connects seamlessly to the garden and provides an exceptional setting for both everyday living and entertaining.

Across the upper floors are four double bedrooms, each with character and generous dimensions as well as including study/fifth bedroom. The garden studio is a particularly special addition, designed with vaulted ceilings and a sleeping platform. It works equally well as a creative workspace, guest accommodation or a private retreat overlooking the garden.

The lower ground floor offers rare flexibility. With its own entrance, reception space, bedroom, utility and bathroom, it is ideally arranged as a self-contained apartment, guest suite or independent living area.

A beautifully crafted staircase connects each level, acting as both a practical feature and a subtle architectural statement.

While Glenarm Road itself is residential, this house carries a unique local story, having historically been connected to the old Clapton theatre, giving it an unusual and compelling provenance within the area.

Moments from the independent shops, cafés and Sunday market of Chatsworth Road, and within easy reach of green open spaces and excellent transport links, the property falls within the catchment area for both Rushmore Primary School and Millfield's Community School, subject to annual admissions criteria. This positioning further enhances its appeal for families seeking a characterful home in a well-regarded local school network.
