Occupying arguably the best position in Gillett Place, this three-bedroom end-of-terrace house, with roof terraces and off-street parking, forms part of a private gated residential development designed in 2007 by the renowned architects Hawkins Brown.

The ground floor contains a master bedroom with en-suite shower room, two further bedrooms and a bathroom. On the first floor is a kitchen / breakfast room at the rear, and a reception room at the front giving on to a terrace. The second floor, an extension later designed by Gresford Architects, contains a further reception or bedroom space, with a large glazed section that gives access to another terrace.

The corner position of the house affords a slightly larger terrace than the neighbouring houses, and allows for clerestory windows in the upper level that invite additional light.

Gillett Place is a private residential development of nine flats and four mews houses completed in 2007. It forms part of a wider masterplan of Gillett Square, which was one of the “100 Public Spaces” promoted by the Mayor of London’s Architecture and Urbanism Unit, headed by Richard Rogers and Ricky Burdett. The focal point of the square is the Dalston Culture House, also designed by Hawkins Brown, containing a jazz club, gallery, shop, café and artists’ studios.

The house is located within walking distance of the shops, restaurants and bars of Dalston, London Fields, Stoke Newington and Islington. The nearest train station is Dalston Kingsland. Dalston Junction station, which is part of the East London Line, is also a short walk away, and provides fast access to the City and the Underground network.

Formed in 1988 by Roger Hawkins and Russell Brown, Hawkins Brown has a reputation as one of the leading design-based architectural practices in the UK. It was named AJ100 Practice of the Year in 2011, and has won a number of RIBA awards.
