5 Amhurst Road
London
E8 1LL
Situated walking distance to both the Olympic Park and Victoria Park, this beautiful three-bedroom home has been creatively designed to create a striking space with multiple highlights, including the two receptions, a first floor bathroom, a south-east facing rear garden, a large loft space and gorgeous period features throughout. There’s also the fantastic potential to extend the 994 square foot home further.
Bow Road station is around ten minutes on foot, where you’ll find access to the Hammersmith & City line or District line, so getting into Central London is a breeze too.
IF YOU LIVED HERE…
Packed with rich history, Bow has a real sense of community - and thoughtful regeneration means you find modern coffee shops and bars nestled comfortably alongside the much-loved traditional pubs and market stalls. But let’s start by exploring your home…
Your charming frontage will instantly set the tone for any visitors, as will the stunning hallway, with its ceiling rose and traditional design. You’ll find more of this striking finish in the front reception room, which wouldn’t look out of place used as a film location. It’s all flooded with light from to large bay windows, perfectly showcasing the ornate features. Your second reception is just as wonderful, conveniently located alongside to the modern kitchen. Both of these rear spaces open up to your secluded south-east facing garden, which is packed with leafy foliage and also contains a storage shed.
On your first floor, you’ve got three thoughtfully designed bedrooms, two doubles and a smaller one which would be perfect for a nursery or office. There’s plenty of storage across all three. There’s also a family-bathroom with vintage-style fittings and both a tub and a separate shower. You’ve got more space in the loft, which can be conveniently accessed via the staircase.
Bow is an excellent area for accessing perks across the entire capital, but the home’s own direct neighbourhood is full of brilliant amenities. The Lord Tredegar, The Coborn, Morgan Arms, and The Lord Morpeth are four great pubs within strolling distance. Cafe East is an excellent brunch spot (as the queues outside are testament to - bear with the wait time, it’s worth it) just one mile away. There’s plenty of other options too, so you’ll have a great time exploring.
WHAT ELSE?
- Despite the home being situated in such an buzzing hub, it’s only a 20 min walk to the 79 acre space of Mile End Park, which was masterfully transformed from industrial wasteland to a sprawling, green oasis, while the Olympic Park is even closer in the other direction, so you’re flanked by nature.
- Driver’s can be on the North Circular in about 10-15 minutes. You’re also less than 10 minutes from the Blackwell Tunnel for easy access to South London.
- You’ve probably heard of the legendary Roman Road Market, which is within a few minutes of your home - and a great place to pick up essentials or just go for a spot of browsing.

A WORD FROM THE EXPERT......
I feel right at home in Hackney, although I’m originally from Greece. You can be anyone, wear whatever you like and always feel welcome. The multiculturalism here comes across in the diversity of the cafés, restaurants, shops and bars. From specialty coffee shops and Michelin star restaurants to beautiful parks and art galleries, Hackney has something for everyone.
Weekends at Victoria Park or Broadway market are filled with great community energy, international delicacies and local artisan creations. For dog lovers, the marshes are beautiful for afternoon and weekend walks with your four-legged friends. And while you’re there, you can stop by the river Lea at the Princess of Wales for a Sunday roast, Here East for brunch, or Crate Brewery for pizza and a local beer.
Properties in the area vary from characterful Victorian and Georgian houses to charming local authority red-brick blocks and beautifully designed modern developments with communal roof terraces.
I have found my home in Hackney and it holds a very special place in my heart.
