Flat to rent in London E2, 2 Bedroom

This superb two-bedroom maisonette is arranged across the top two floors of Fellows Court, a striking 1960’s development by lcc Architects’ Department and a rare British example of Le Corbusier’s principles for l‘Unité d’Habitation. Positioned in the heart of Hoxton, high above the restaurants and cafes of Hackney Road, this recently refurbished apartment combines original modernist features with remarkable views of the city.

Externally, Fellows Court is suspended above the ground by six concrete pilotis, providing communal space and parking beneath. Internal access is gained through a private foyer, where corridors or ‘interior streets’ run the length of every other floor, affording split-level accommodation and a balcony to every resident.

Accommodation measures just over 800 sq. Ft. And comprises two double bedrooms, a bathroom, reception room and a modern open plan kitchen/living room. A balcony runs the length of the first floor and overlooks the Geffrye Museum gardens with dramatic long views to the west, across the city. The apartment also benefits from copious storage space and warmth from communal heating pipes surrounding and from below.

Shoreditch has become an extremely popular area in recent years and Fellows Court is excellently positioned for the neighbourhood’s mix of boutiques, bars, galleries and restaurants; The Laughing Heart and Morito have recently opened within walking distance, alongside local favourites The Marksman pub and Sager + Wilde. Columbia Road Market and Haggerston Park are also nearby.

The closest train station is Hoxton for London Overground services, while Old Street station and Shoreditch High Street provide connections city-wide.
