2 bed flat to rent

Clapton Square, London E5

A beautifully presented and well-proportioned two-bedroom apartment in a mansion style building, with generous living spaces and enviably positioned moments from some of Hackney’s most-loved neighbourhood spots.

Set within the idyllic Clapton Square Conservation Area, the location combines a quieter, historic atmosphere with easy access to the energy of Hackney. Clapton Square itself provides a rare sense of openness for this part of London, with its leafy central garden offering a peaceful place to sit, stroll or simply enjoy a little more space.

Hackney Central and Hackney Downs are both nearby, along with Lower Clapton Road and its growing collection of independent restaurants, cafés and pubs.

If you lived here...

Beyond the striking brick facade, a central hallway leads through to a separate reception room, where generous proportions and an angled bay create a characterful living space with plenty of room to relax. The separate kitchen and diner are equally well sized, with ample cabinetry, worktop space and room for a dining table, making it somewhere you can comfortably cook and eat rather than simply pass through.

Both bedrooms are doubles and sit on opposite sides of the apartment, giving the layout a nice sense of separation. The principal bedroom benefits from built-in storage, while the second offers plenty of flexibility for guests, sharers or a home working set-up.

The bathroom is positioned centrally between the living spaces and bedrooms, with a bath and overhead shower. Altogether, the apartment has a well-thought-out layout, with each room feeling distinct and comfortably proportioned.
