4 bed terraced house for sale

Terrace Road, London E9

“Intelligent play with scale and volume gives way to effortless, light-filled living"

This creatively reimagined four-bedroom home occupies a Victorian building in Hackney, near Victoria Park and Homerton. Inside, original details abound, including beautiful parquet flooring and decorative tiling, layered with a contemporary monochromatic palette and bold splashes of colour. A recent extension elevates the original footprint, with varying heights and ribbon glazing to maximise light and volume, and draws the living space closer to a restorative pebble garden at the rear.

The Tour

The house sits on Terrace Road, a wide residential street with an eclectic mix of architecture and close to green spaces, notably Well Street Common and Victoria Park.

The plan spans 1,870 sq ft over three storeys. On the ground floor, a versatile layout creates a variety of living spaces well-suited to relaxing, communing, or entertaining. A two-part reception room offers a formal space to sit or pick a book from the built-in library as the day draws to a close, effortlessly connected to the light-filled kitchen and dining room beyond. The original herringbone parquet flooring retains its characterful grain.

The rear extension is filled with southerly light from full-height sliding glazed doors which open out to the garden and office outbuilding. The design is minimal: White cabinets, white-painted walls, and a white Falcon range cooker. Above, wrap-around skylights amplify the neutral scheme, creating an airy quality, while varying heights allow light to enter in scattered form.

On the upper floors, four generous bedrooms are lit by large windows. The first-floor bedrooms have original hardwood floorboards, and one has floor-to-ceiling mirrored wardrobes. Off the landing, a shared bathroom has a built-in bathtub, original geometric wall tiles, and sympathetically added chequerboard tiles underfoot.

The final bedroom sits beneath a vaulted ceiling with its original exposed beams and brickwork. It features a modern en suite shower room with a walk-in shower and ribbon glazing that overlooks the surrounding treetops.

Outdoor Space

At the rear, a wonderful south-facing pebble garden extends from the living space and centres around an ornamental cherry tree. A patio provides space for outdoor dining in warmer months and a perfect spot to enjoy warm sunlight throughout the day. An outbuilding is currently used as a home office.
