1 bed flat for sale

West End Avenue, Leyton E10

A charming one bedroom ground floor garden apartment, close to both Walthamstow Village and Epping Forest. A Victorian conversion recently refurbished to a high standard while retaining original features, you have the best of both worlds.

From your quiet Whipps Cross street it's a ten minute stroll to Leyton Flats, part of Epping Forest and home to Hollow Ponds where you can indulge in a spot of birdwatching, dogspotting or even rowing. You'll also be right in the heart of Walthamstow Village within fifteen minutes, and public transport is within easy reach.

If you lived here...

Pass through the wooden gate and follow the pretty encaustic mosaic-patterned tiled path that leads you home.

Inside, you’re welcomed straight into a generous reception room. The southwest-facing box bay window fills the space with sunlight from morning until evening. Engineered flooring stretches across the room, anchored by a cast-iron fireplace with a wooden mantel. Picture rails and decorative coving add quiet reminders of the home’s history.

The hallway holds two useful cupboards-ideal for stowing away shoes, coats, and daily bits and pieces.

Opposite, the double bedroom offers 115 square feet of calm and comfort. A garden-facing window brings in soft green views, while carpet underfoot gives the room an easy, settled feel.

The kitchen and dining area spans 135 square feet, designed with both practicality and style in mind. Cabinets run across three sides, finished in dove grey with black brushed handles beneath crisp white worktops. A large window and glazed door brighten the space and open directly to the garden. Hardwearing silver-grey engineered flooring ties it all together.

Outdoors, the garden is yours alone. It extends 26 feet, with a gravel dining area and path bordering a neat lawn framed by flowerbeds. At the far end, a shed adds extra storage.

Back inside, a short hallway leads to the bathroom. Natural light spills across white tiling and a modern suite with a shower-over-bath combination. White tiles and a shiplap ceiling sit softly against pale grey walls, creating a simple, timeless finish.

Just over half a mile from you is Wood Street station for the Overground, taking you to Liverpool Street in twenty minutes. If you don't have to go into the City, you'll love whiling away the hours at the indoor market close by, or continuing to explore the delights of the Village. Plus, it's just over a mile to Walthamstow Central, where you can grab a Victoria Line train to Kings Cross in fifteen minutes.

A word from the expert...

"Leyton is a vibrant area that has been expanding in popularity over the years. The high road has a wealth of shops for all cultures as well as restaurants and bars such as Figo for al fresco dining and The Leyton Technical for a well-deserved drink after work.

In terms of transport you’re spoilt for choice, with Leyton Underground taking you to Oxford Circus in 20 minutes and Leyton Midland Overground travelling across North London to various spots in addition to a solid network of buses taking you to Hackney and beyond.

As a resident of Leyton, I would personally recommend Patchworks on Church Road with its eclectic mix of events such as The East Village Vintage Market and Good Vibes Tribe parties."
