"This bright two bedroom end of terrace maisonette lies on Beechwood Road, a tree lined street in Dalston. It unfolds across three floors over 800 sqft, with an understated colour palette and a private patio garden. The living spaces are bathed in light as picture windows face leafy beech trees on one side and a private communal garden square on the other. The maisonette s central Hackney location brings the greenery of London Fields and the brilliant restaurants, caf s and bars of Stoke Newington and Broadway Market within easy reach.
The Tour
The maisonette is set back from the street behind a brick walled private patio garden. Its front door opens from the patio to a ground floor entrance hall with walls painted in Pointing by Farrow and Ball and geometric patterned tiles underfoot. There is plenty of space here for hanging coats and kicking off shoes, as well as a storage room with laundry facilities.
From the hallway, a staircase fitted with seagrass carpet ascends to the first floor landing; on one side is a kitchen dining room, and on the other is a living room. The kitchen is composed of smart white cabinetry with a white solid surface countertop. It is equipped with a four ring Smeg induction hob, an integrated oven and a stainless steel sink beneath a picture window that frames views of the beech and sycamore trees outside. Plywood shelves provide additional storage for ingredients, cookware and recipe books. The dining area is finished in Farrow and Ball s Vardo and matching blue tiles.
The living room is positioned at the rear of the plan. Morning light filters through a large east facing casement window and falls on wide engineered wood floorboards running underfoot. Views are over a planted lawn outside, and the focal point of the room there is floor to ceiling plywood shelving.
There are two double bedrooms on the second floor, both fitted with substantial in built wardrobes. The primary room is at the front of the plan, with walls washed in Card Room Green also by Farrow and Ball. The second bedroom is at the rear of the plan and is used by the current owners as a home working space, with walls painted in Dead Salmon .
A bathroom sits between the bedrooms. It has textured white wall tiles, two deep roof lights providing plenty of natural light and a bathtub with a rain style shower fitted above.
Outdoor Space
At the front is the maisonette s private patio garden, concealed from the street by white painted brick walls that provide a private and quiet atmosphere. A mature sycamore tree is planted at one side, and a climbing hydrangea traverses the garden wall on another. The west facing orientation makes it an ideal spot to unwind, or gather over an al fresco lunch, with plenty of space for a table and chairs, a barbecue and potted plants.
