Frequently Asked Questions

Is Hackney a good area?

Voted one of the coolest neighbourhoods to live in the world by Vogue in 2014, Hackney is the bustling creative hub of North London. The community is a delightful treasure trove just 30 minutes from central London, brimming with a dazzling array of restaurants, cafes, bars, markets, entertainment venues and independent shops.

With a number of schools nearby and several public transport links connecting the area to the rest of London, Hackney is a great place to live and work. Residents enjoy close proximity to central London, making Hackney a great choice for working professionals and families alike.

Urban regeneration in the area has also seen the emergence of a new cultural quarter in Hackney. There’s a cluster of village-esque neighbourhoods with a distinct community feel, including the areas surrounding Chatsworth Road, Victoria Park Village and Broadway Market.

Is Hackney a good place to invest in property?

Situated in vibrant Northeast London, the community of Hackney is a valuable addition to any property portfolio, making the opportunity to invest there a great opportunity within London’s burgeoning property market. Known for its creative community feel, independent shops and local schools, Hackney is well-connected to the rest of London with several public transport links running through the area.

Only half a century ago, Hackney was a collection of small communities and enormous Tudor estates. Today, this is evident in the charming Georgian architecture found in the Clapton Square Conservation Area and around St. John’s Church, the medieval tower of St. Augustine’s church and of course, the stunning Tudor-style Sutton House.

Towards the end of the 19th century, a number of grand old mansions that once covered the Hackney area were pulled down in favour of Victorian terrace homes which can still be seen today. You’ll also find The Navarino Mansions, which were constructed in 1904 to house 300 Jewish artists from the East End.

In this day and age, Hackney is a delightful array of ex-council houses, warehouse conversions and historical homes – notably the ever-popular Victorian terraces and spacious Georgian villas. In recent years, there has also been an increasing number of new builds constructed, meaning Hackney really does have a little something for everyone.

Why should I move to Hackney?

There are a number of reasons why you should consider the community of Hackney. Situated in trendy East London, residents enjoy a range of edgy independent shops, as well as artsy culture spots and markets.

Popular restaurants and bars can also be found around the Broadway Market area.

Hackney residents also enjoy a strong sense of community, with several local events and activities happening every month. There are also a number of community groups residents can join.
