2 Bed Flat, Belgrade Road, N16

Between Dalston and Stoke Newington, this two-bedroom, ground-floor apartment embraces the industrial and is carefully designed for urban living.

In the generous living space, the concrete is a pleasing contrast to the white of the kitchen, but in keeping with minimalist look and feel. Expansive floor-to-ceiling windows invite you to the terrace, which has the sense of being enclosed from the elements. The concrete continues through the good-sized bedrooms, both of which open onto a small patio-cum-lightwell for maximum natural light. And to make sure you can maintain the minimalist aesthetic, there’s an abundance of built-in storage.

Belgrade Road is on the doorstep of not one, but two eclectic neighbourhoods. To the south, Dalston has all the ingredients for a good time - diverse and delicious cuisine, cultural spaces and plenty of places to shake your tail feather. Alternatively, head northward to Stokey for relative peace and quiet, where laid-back lunching, meandering and browsing independent shops are the order of the day.
