This second-floor, park-facing apartment in the RIBA award-winning Otto Building offers bright, contemporary living across 764 sqft. Floor-to-ceiling windows and an open-plan kitchen/living area open onto a south-facing terrace with direct views over Hackney Downs — a rare tree-canopy aspect for central Clapton. Two double bedrooms and two bathrooms (one ensuite) suit either a professional couple or a small family.
Residents benefit from on-site concierge, communal roof garden, wellness room and secure bike storage — practical amenities for everyday city living. Transport links are within roughly half a mile, with multiple Overground stations nearby and easy access to local shops, cafés and leisure on Mare Street, Kingsland Road and Chatsworth Road.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold and heated via a community scheme, so prospective buyers should review the lease length, ground rent and service charge details. The surrounding area scores as very deprived; crime is average and buyers should weigh local social factors alongside the apartment’s private advantages.
Overall this is a well-specified, modern two-bedroom apartment with distinctive park views and strong amenity provision. It will suit buyers seeking light-filled, low-maintenance urban living close to green space — provided they check tenure and communal running costs before committing.
