Set on the first floor of an attractive period property, this beautifully presented one-bedroom apartment offers a host of desirable features — from its separate kitchen and reception to the immaculate interiors and excellent storage throughout. Bathed in natural light, every room feels welcoming and well-proportioned.
Location-wise, you’re moments from the vibrant heart of Upper Leytonstone, with its fantastic mix of independent shops, cafés and local amenities. Plus, Leytonstone Underground is less than a ten-minute walk, putting the Central Line — and the rest of London — within easy reach.
If you lived here...
Thanks to the care and attention already poured into this home, you’ll be able to settle in and enjoy it from day one. The decor is immaculate — ideal for lovers of minimalist style, or as a fresh blank canvas ready for your own personal touch.
In the reception room, natural light pours in and highlights the thoughtful design. There’s ample room for lounging, dining, and entertaining. The separate kitchen is sleek and contemporary, with space for a small table, while the bathroom is bright, modern, and well-appointed. The bedroom continues the calm aesthetic and benefits from custom shelving and plenty of natural light.
Set behind an attractive period façade, the location puts you at the heart of Leytonstone life. Local favourites like Filly Brook, Arch Deli and The Heathcote & Star are all nearby, with the ever-popular Francis Road just a short walk further.
Transport connections are excellent — Leytonstone Underground (Central Line) is around nine minutes on foot, while Leyton Midland Road Overground station is a similar distance, connecting you to the Suffragette Line.
What else?
You’ll never be short on essentials with an abundance of convenience stores on both Leytonstone High Road and Leyton High Road — and you’re handily positioned between the two. For serious shopping or leisure, Westfield Stratford and the Olympic Park are just a quick hop away via bus or the Central Line. Heading out of London? Drivers are less than ten minutes from the North Circular and M11. And if it’s nature you’re after, Epping Forest, Wanstead Park, and a host of other green spaces are right on your doorstep.
- Beyond the Aquatics Centre in the Olympic Park, you’ll find East Bank, which is set to be the new cultural heart of London, with world-renowned organisations like BBC Music, Sadler's Wells and a new V&A partnership making it their home.
- Foodie highlights closer towards the tube include hidden gem Panda dim sum and sensational taqueria Homies on Donkeys, which won BBC2’s Britain’s Top Takeaway.

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."
