Bouverie Road, London, N16

A truly sensational, four double bedroom, two bathroom freehold house positioned on one of Stoke Newington’s most superior roads. Set across 4 floors, the property has been renovated to the highest of standards by the current owners, and extended by renowned architect Brian O’Tuama in several places. Starting with the lower ground floor, this is an incredibly social space from the kitchen complete with a La Canche Range cooker and stain proof composite worktops at the front of the house, leading through the dining area, then to a cleverly created snug with House of Hackney wallpaper, and bifolding doors leading out to a stunning, south-west facing garden creating the perfect entertaining space. The raised ground floor occupies an incredibly grand front reception room, with ornate cornicing and working wood burner. All four bedrooms set on the upper floors are genuine doubles, the master bedroom has been redesigned to create a walk in style wardrobe, with two bathrooms positioned on the half landings. One of the most special things about the property is the Guggenheim style staircase leading directly up to the loft bedroom, which has tremendous views across neighbouring gardens and chimney pots, as well as a glimpse of the turrets at the Clissold Climbing Castle. The property is completed with a downstairs wc and ample storage throughout.
On the unusually wide and blissfully quiet Bouverie Road, just 100m North of Church Street, it is within easy reach of the independent shops, cafes, restaurants and pubs of Stoke Newington and Newington Green; The Clarence Tavern, Esters, Cadet and Jolene are neighbourhood favourites. The much-loved Church Street is also home to The Spence Bakery, Whole Foods and The Good Egg, as well as many other independent businesses. There are several green spaces nearby: Abney Park & Cemetery and Clissold Park, with its tennis courts, café, beautiful lakes, and resident deer. Woodberry Woodland and West Reservoir are in close proximity - the latter offering open-water swimming as well as certified sailing and kayaking courses.
Popular with young families, Stoke Newington offers an abundance of noteworthy schools, such as Grazebrook Primary School (60m away), William Patten Primary School (both of which rated Outstanding by Ofsted) and Stoke Newington School.
Stoke Newington Overground is the nearest station, with direct trains to Liverpool Street in around 20 minutes. Manor House tube station is also closeby providing links to Central London.
