1 room in a 2 bed maisonette on London Fields

A room in a two-bed maisonette on the west side of London Fields, with both bedrooms and the balcony looking straight out over the park.

The flat runs over three floors, cork and timber underfoot throughout, and gets a lot of light. Ground floor: secure entrance, bike racks, storage. First floor: living room with floor-to-ceiling windows opening onto the balcony, a large kitchen with the usual white goods (dishwasher included), a utility room with washing machine and storage, and a WC at the back. Second floor: two large bedrooms facing the park, a guest/office room, and a shared bathroom with bath and power shower (good pressure and temperature).

The property sits on the top three floors of a large family estate overlooking London Fileds, with a bunch of cafes, pubs, restaurants, markets and an open-air heated lido just a stone's throw. Well connected to the rest of London, it's just a 5-minute walk to London Fields overground, a 15-minute walk to Hackney Central and a 15-minute walk to Hackney Road. For those who love a weekend market and pub, it's just a 5-minute walk to Broadway Market, a 20-minute walk to Columbia Road, a 25-minute walk to De Beauvoir and a 30-minute walk to Shoreditch.

I'm Mark, 40, a design engineer working in fine art, which means I collaborate with artists to design and build static and kinetic sculpture for galleries and the public realm. I work full time and keep busy at weekends, so what I'm after is a relaxed, tidy home. A local cleaning service comes twice a month. The flat is smoke-free, though the balcony is yours.

£1,400 pcm plus bills, which run £100 to £150 a month depending on the season. Deposit £1,615 (five weeks). Available now, no minimum term. The room comes furnished or unfurnished and takes a king-size bed, drawers, wardrobe and rail with space left over.

Send me a message with a bit about yourself, and if it looks like a good fit we'll set up a viewing.
