2 bedroom apartment in an historic art deco building
Description
Set within Hackney’s iconic Art Deco Strand Building, this beautifully renovated two-bedroom flat combines period character with contemporary design. Originally built in 1925 as Hackney Electricity Demonstration Halls and Offices, the building was converted into residential apartments some seventy years later and remains a distinctive feature of the local architecture.
Situated on the second floor, the property is accessed via an attractive communal hallway and a striking pink stairwell, setting the tone for the considered interiors within. The open-plan kitchen, dining and reception room features a soft pastel palette, complemented by walnut cabinetry, a bespoke hanging brass bar rack, and thoughtfully designed living space. Double doors lead through to the principal bedroom, where parquet flooring adds warmth and character, with a second bedroom providing further accommodation.
Further benefits include access to a communal courtyard and underground parking.
Service charge is currently approximately £6,000 per annum to reflect major works to the building. This level is anticipated to remain for a further two years before reducing to standard service charge levels of approximately £3,000 per annum.
Location
The Strand Building is ideally positioned in the heart of Hackney, an area renowned for its vibrant neighbourhood atmosphere, independent cafés, restaurants, boutiques and excellent local amenities. Hackney Central is approximately 0.3 miles away, while Hackney Downs station is around 0.4 miles away, providing convenient Overground connections across London. Homerton station is approximately 0.5 miles away, with London Fields station around 0.7 miles away.
The property is well placed for the green open spaces of Hackney Downs Park and the surrounding area, while Mare Street offers an excellent selection of shops, eateries and everyday conveniences. London Fields, with its popular park, lido and nearby Broadway Market, is also within easy reach, offering a lively mix of independent shops, cafés and weekend market stalls. The combination of excellent transport links, local amenities and green spaces makes this an appealing location for those seeking the best of East London living.
