Hackney Canal Penthouse with Huge Roof Terrace
I am a born and bred Londoner, living and working as a Creative in London. This  riverside penthouse flat is my main home in Clapton, Hackney.<br /><br />It's close to the bustle of Hackney and also open green spaces. The terrace has incredible views of Walthamstow and Hackney marshes which are full of wildlife - there are grazing cows in the summer months! There are great cafes and restaurants within walking distance and you’re not far from Shoreditch, Stoke Newington, Hackney Central and Walthamstow.<br /><br /><b>The space</b><br />The flat is the penthouse of a five storey apartment block with a lift, overlooking the River Lea and Springfield Park. <br /><br />The kitchen and sitting room are open plan. It’s a nice airy big space, perfect to work or relax in.<br /><br />The kitchen <br />As well as the usual kitchen appliances, there is a dishwasher, coffee machine and blender. I'm a keen cook so please enjoy my cookbooks and then if the sun’s out, enjoy your meal alfresco on the t
The neighbourhood is a trendy thriving but peaceful residential area on the River Lea in Hackney, East London. I feel very lucky to live here. <br /><br />My favourite local pubs are The Anchor and Hope Which is 2 mins away from the flat and is right on the river. In the summer, there a food truck on the weekend that does the best smoked aubergine wraps. And in the winters it’s very cosy. <br /><br />The Crooked Billet is 10 mins walk towards Clapton Station. It’s huge and has a big garden and great beers and food selection. They show sport there too.<br /><br />Sodo Pizza is 10 mins walk and it’s the best pizza in East London. <br /><br />Rowing Club Cafe<br />The best spot to get a coffee and watch the boats go by. The breakfasts and lunches are tasty and really cheap.<br /><br />Clapton Country Club (15 mins)<br />Best Sunday’s roasts and live jazz.<br /><br />Chatsworth Road is 15 mins walk along the canal and has lots of lovely shops and restaurants along it as well as independent
I've lived in London all my life and I love telling people all my favourite real local places to go. I work as a creative and spend my weekends travelling or planning the next trip!
