Positioned opposite the charming Clapton Pond, this exquisite Grade II listed Chapel Almshouse. We are pleased to present a unique chance to own a piece of history, beautifully blended with bespoke modern finishes.
Recently renovated with meticulous attention to detail, the property features a well-proportioned living and kitchen area with a large mezzanine and original windows. The master bedroom is equipped with an en-suite bathroom, and a high-quality shower room. Upstairs, you'll find an additional bedroom area and generous storage space. The house is further enhanced by wood flooring throughout and access to a communal garden.
From independent shops, cafes, and restaurants on your doorstep to high-end fashion at Westfield, the Bishop Wood Almshouses are ideally located to meet all your needs. Enjoy the local Sunday Market on Chatsworth Road, the green expanses of Victoria Park, or a swim at the London Fields Lido. Excellent transport links are available, with Hackney Central and Hackney Downs stations just a short walk away.
The Almshouses comprise five distinct dwellings, including this historic chapel which is believed to have been the smallest in England. Built in 1665 with funds left by Thomas Wood-born in Clapton in 1607 and later the Bishop of Lichfield-they have been carefully restored to their former glory by the current owner.
This development won Hackney Design Awards 2020 Heritage and Restoration category, announcing it a sensitive and sympathetic restoration within a heritage setting.
