Heron Court E5 9HH (Zone 2) at the junction of Big Hill & High Hill Ferry, 2 mins from the Anchor & Hope Pub on the river Lea, across from Walthamstow Marshes.

Modern, purpose built one bedroom apartment on the third floor of an attractive built block on the banks of the river Lea and overlooking Springfield Park. Situated in a tranquil cul-de-sac, it has extensive views across Springfield Park and the river; it’s literally moments from these green spaces and just a short walk from the shops, cafes, restaurants, and overground station in nearby Clapton. Also, a short bus-hop to Hackney Central or walk in 20mins. Wander through Springfield Park to Stamford Hill and buy fresh bagels and hamantashen (poppy seed pockets) from Grodzinski Bakery & Patisserie, maybe stopping at the ‘White House’ in Springfield Park on the way back for coffee or even breakfast at the Riverside Café overlooking the Lea & houseboat marina.

The apartment has 46m of space, plus a balcony, and has been thoughtfully designed to maximise room sizes whilst providing a generous amount of storage space. There are two large built-in cupboards in the hallway, and there’s no need to bring your bicycles into the apartment because you have access to a communal secure bike store.

The main living space is large, extending to an impressive 7:62 m (appx 21 ½ ft) long, providing plenty of space for the kitchen, dining, and relaxation zones. It is flooded with natural light from double glazed French windows that open onto the balcony. Overlooking trees and with river views this is the perfect spot to relax and has space for chairs, a table and/or plants and with the park opposite there’s a great sense of privacy. The well-equipped galley kitchen is tucked away at one end of the living room. It has extensive wall and floor cabinets, integrated and freestanding appliances including a washing machine and fridge freezer. The double bedroom has park views, and plenty of space for a large double bed and bedroom furniture. The adjacent bathroom is a generous size and has a contemporary suite that includes a bath with an overhead shower and a freestanding washbasin and WC. There’s also smart white tiling. This area of Upper Clapton that’s bordered by the River Lea Springfield Park is a friendly neighbourhood with great access to amenities, transport links and green spaces. You can be in the city within half an hour. It’s about a ten-minute walk to Clapton station where you’ll find fast, direct 13-minute Overground trains to Liverpool Street in the City & it’s in Zone 2.

From there, you can connect to 4 tube lines (Central Line, District, Circle, Hammersmith & City and Metropolitan), as well as the Elizabeth Line and DLR. There are also numerous bus routes that run along nearby Upper Clapton Road, south to to Bethnal Geen & Whitechapel and north to Finsbury Park & Camden Town. The 393 bus from the top of Big Hill, runs between Lea Bridge Road Roundabout to Camden Town, via Stoke Newington & Highbury Islington. Alternatively, hop onto a 253/4 bus (15 mins) to Manor House (Piccadilly Line) or Finsbury Park (Victoria Line) or cycle along the river Lea towpath in the direction of Bethnal Green (Victoria Park, Museum of Childhood, Brick Lane, Flower Market) & Canary Wharf.

The riverside location is quiet and secluded, with pleasant views over Springfield Park. Nature is all around, with riverside walks (Lea Valley Park Nature Reserve), Springfield Park (Summer Festivals), Millfield’s Park, Chatsworth Road weekend Market, and Walthamstow Marshes just moments from your door. There’s the Boat House, home of the River Lea Rowing Club, 3 mins from Heron Court and it’s just a ten-minute cycle to the Olympic Park. Walk across the Marshes on a Sunday morning and you’ll be at the bottom of Walthamstow Market and the ‘Sunday Social’ where you can buy street food and produce from the Farmers Market. Or walk across to Stoke Newington (15mins) for cafes, organic supermarket, restaurants, baker
