We bought this house 20 years ago because we fell in love with the amazing design and fantastic history. The house was originally a vicarage, and it was designed by the vicar’s wife and based on a house in London which no longer exists.We love the large rooms and it have been a great place for our family to grow up. The cellar can be used for a variety of uses. It has been a playroom/den, a home gym, a workshop and storage.Our neighbours are lovely often bring around cakes, produce and plantsIdeal for access to the A380 but far enough away that we are not disturbed by the traffic. We are close to schools, pubs, shops etc but tucked away in an out of the way location. There are plenty of walks nearby and Hackney Marshes nature reserve is short stroll.The oval room has been used as both a home cinema and a retreat from the family lounge. It opens out into the large enclosed garden, which we love, and we have spent many hours enjoying both it and the patio area for parties and family bar-b-ques.
