Set along the attractive residential stretch of Glenarm Road, this remarkable Victorian house extends to approximately 2,662 sqft and has been comprehensively redesigned to deliver a home of rare scale, flexibility and architectural quality.
From the outset, the house impresses with its sense of proportion and light. The accommodation has been carefully layered to provide both expansive communal areas and private retreats, with considered material choices and integrated storage throughout.
The principal living level is centred around a beautifully executed open-plan kitchen, dining and reception space, unified by rich parquet flooring that runs seamlessly underfoot. At the front, the reception area is anchored by a wide bay window fitted with elegant shutters, drawing in soft natural light and creating a calm yet refined setting.
To the rear, the space opens into an impressive kitchen and dining area designed for both everyday family life and entertaining on a larger scale. A statement island forms the focal point, complemented by extensive cabinetry, quality integrated appliances and generous preparation surfaces. An exposed brick wall introduces texture and warmth, subtly referencing the building’s heritage while maintaining a clean contemporary feel.
Glazed doors open directly onto a substantial east-facing garden. The immediate patio provides ample space for outdoor dining and morning coffee, while the lawn beyond offers a family-friendly expanse rarely found so close to central Hackney.
A guest WC and separate utility area on this floor enhance practicality without compromising the flow of the main living space.
With its own private entrance in addition to internal access, the lower ground floor offers exceptional flexibility. This level comprises two bedrooms, both with built-in storage, a modern bathroom and a dining area leading into a secondary kitchen/utility space. Whether used as guest accommodation, workspace, teenage retreat or configured for semi-independent living (subject to usual consents), this floor adds significant lifestyle value.
The first floor hosts three well-proportioned double bedrooms, each thoughtfully designed with integrated storage to maximise usable space. A contemporary family bathroom serves this level, finished in a clean and timeless style.
The top floor provides two further bedrooms, including a superb principal suite complete with en-suite bathroom. Elevated above the rest of the house, this level offers a peaceful and private setting, enhanced by excellent natural light and clever eaves storage.
Every element of the renovation has been considered to balance longevity with design integrity. The house retains the inherent charm and ceiling heights of its Victorian origins while introducing modern craftsmanship, high-quality fixtures and a coherent architectural language throughout. Storage has been discreetly integrated across all floors, ensuring the home remains as functional as it is visually impressive.
The scale — rarely available in this part of E5 — combined with the adaptability of the lower ground floor makes this a genuinely future-proof home.
Glenarm Road is positioned in the heart of Lower Clapton, a neighbourhood that has evolved into one of East London’s most dynamic yet community-oriented enclaves. Just moments away lies Chatsworth Road, widely regarded for its thriving Sunday market and eclectic mix of independent cafés, bakeries, wine bars and restaurants. Long standing local favourites sit comfortably alongside newer openings, creating a lively but authentic atmosphere that continues to draw residents who value both character and convenience.
Green space is abundant. Millfields Park and the River Lea are within easy reach, offering waterside walks, open playing fields and cycle routes stretching towards Walthamstow Marshes and beyond. Hackney Downs and the expansive Hackney Marshes are also nearby, providing further space for recreation and outdoor pursuits. The area is particularly popular with families due to its strong sense of community and well-regarded local schools.
Transport connections are excellent and make commuting straightforward. Clapton Overground Station is within comfortable walking distance and provides direct services to London Liverpool Street in around fifteen minutes, making it highly appealing for City professionals. Lea Bridge Road is also accessible, connecting to Stratford and the Elizabeth Line, dramatically widening access across London.
Numerous bus routes operate locally, offering convenient links to Hackney Central, Dalston, Shoreditch, Islington and the West End. For cyclists, the surrounding network of quieter residential streets and canal paths provides a practical and increasingly popular alternative for navigating the city.

A new popular hangout is The Sunday market on Chatsworth Road which just seems to be getting better and better as something new, whether it’s an organic food shop, vintage fabrics and designer must-haves to rare meats and artisanal bread, is opening up in what seems to be every other week.
Hackney, and nearby London Fields, is buzzing with new cafes, bars and restaurants. Hackney is also positively throbbing with art galleries, and on the first Thursday of every month, the galleries of East London open their doors until 9pm, offering art for all.
This gives residents the opportunity to take advantage of the city's most exciting, artistically vibrant and culturally thriving borough.
