Terracotta tiles guide you to a smart charcoal grey front door, setting the tone for the inviting interior within. The reception room, spanning a generous 23.6 ft, is the first to welcome you as you step inside. Beautiful oak floorboards flow throughout, while a characterful bay window allows natural light to flood the space. The space is large enough for dining and lounging options however you choose to configure it.

Elegantly clad in horizontal sand-coloured tiles, the bathroom features a white suite, a glazed bath and shower combination that caters to both indulgent soaks and quick refreshes, while a mirrored cabinet provides practical storage, keeping surfaces clutter-free.

At the rear, the kitchen is an attractive blend of modern style and functionality. Putty-coloured cabinetry and blue patterned tiling create a charming contrast to the thick wooden countertops. The kitchen also enjoys views of the green space beyond and opens onto a lean-to with access to the garden, enhancing the sense of flow and connection to the outdoors. The lean-to is a welcome addition, - perfect for secure bike storage and wet weather gear.

Both bedrooms are bright, light-filled spaces, measuring 132 ft² and 121.54 ft² respectively. The larger of the two features a bank of built-in wardrobes, ensuring ample storage while maintaining an uncluttered and restful feel.

Step outside to a private garden stretching nearly 50 feet, laid to lawn and framed by mature planting, a camellia stands ready to be the first to bloom, offering a burst of colour in the cold early months.

A WORD FROM THE EXPERT...

"Leytonstone is a unique, eclectic area, with great gastro pubs like Leytonstone Tavern and The Red Lion to bistro cafés like The Wild Goose Bakery and Back to Ours, along with the open green space of Wanstead Flats, a serene getaway from the hustle and bustle of urban life.
The area is full of history, with interesting, beautiful Grade II listed buildings like St John’s Baptist Church (built in 1832) and Leytonstone House, the 18th-century home of Sir Edward Buxton, notable MP and conservationist. There’s also St Andrew’s Church, built in 1886–1893 as a memorial to local philanthropist William Cotton.
Leytonstone Library is a great place to visit if you’re feeling studious and Leytonstone Leisure centre is close by for the more actively minded. Wanstead Park, in the former grounds of Wanstead House, takes in walking trails, cycle paths and several ornamental lakes — a great place to relax, exercise and soak up some local history.
With an array of buses and the Central line underground station close by, you can be in the City and surrounding areas within minutes."
