This light-filled four-bedroom Victorian house in Stoke Newington has been subject to a sympathetic renovation by Pierre d’Avoine Architects. Characterised by clean architectural lines, subtle detailing and an understated use of materials, the home’s minimalist aesthetic seamlessly combines with carefully retained period features. A south-facing courtyard garden sits at the rear, cleverly levelled with the kitchen addition to create a wonderful sense of extension to the interior plan.
