Shrubland Road, Haggerston

A charming one-bedroom garden flat set within the lower ground floor of an attractive Victorian conversion on Shrubland Road. Combining classic period character with stylish contemporary finishes, the property has its own private entrance and opens onto a beautifully landscaped rear garden, offering a wonderful private outdoor space.
Stepping through the front door, stairs lead down half a level into the main hallway, where the space beside the steps has been intelligently utilized to create a dedicated entrance nook—perfect for hanging coats and storing shoes. From here, elegant herringbone wood flooring runs underfoot, complemented by a deep charcoal feature wall, integrated smart storage, and crisp white ceilings with minimalist cylinder downlights.
The heart of the home is the inviting reception room. Washed in neutral tones and finished with continued herringbone flooring, the focal point of the space is an elegant floating oak mantlepiece over a clean hearth niche, flanked by deep alcoves that offer excellent versatility for furniture or personal styling. French doors open wide to create a seamless indoor-outdoor transition, filling the room with morning light and framing views of the terrace. A neat gravel sun terrace, complete with access to a handy external store room, leads directly from the reception room up to a lush, private lawn bordered by timber fencing.
Positioned adjacent to the living space, the neatly designed kitchen blends modern functionality with warm textures. It boasts rich solid iroko worktops, a classic butler sink with a swan-neck tap, and timeless white square splashback tiling set against practical, warm terracotta floor tiles. Built around a premium stainless-steel SMEG cooker and supported by a sturdy solid beech framework, the layout is completed by a clever drop-leaf solid iroko table that folds down to maximize space, alongside bespoke solid wood edged cabinetry offering ample storage.
The bedroom is a peaceful, generous sanctuary featuring a wide, multi-paned sash window that looks out towards the property’s own front garden, finished with pale pink walls and a characterful fireplace alcove. Completing the interior is a stylish bathroom wrapped in the same clean white square tiling used for the kitchen splashback. It includes a modern bathtub with an overhead rainfall shower, a minimalist floating basin, and matching terracotta floor tiles underfoot, all complemented by thoughtful joinery featuring birch-finished plywood panelling and solid iroko shelving.
