If you lived here...

On the first floor, the apartment opens into a welcoming hallway with a built-in storage cupboard neatly tucked away to keep everyday essentials organised, leading naturally through to the main living area.

At the heart of the apartment, the kitchen, dining, and reception room form a generous open-plan setting with wood flooring and crisp cabinetry offset by softly contrasting walls. There is plenty of room for both dining and relaxed seating, making the room equally suited to everyday living and entertaining. Wide windows draw in generous daylight, giving the room a bright, welcoming character throughout the day.

Positioned away from the living area, the bedroom is comfortably sized and thoughtfully arranged, with built-in mirrored wardrobes providing integrated storage while preserving a calm, settled feel. Shutters frame the window and soften the incoming daylight, enhancing the room’s restful atmosphere. Completing the home, the bathroom is finished in dark-toned tiling with clean-lined surfaces that add a refined, modern edge. A bath with an overhead shower is neatly incorporated, with contrasting textures bringing depth and a quietly luxurious feel.

The surrounding neighbourhood has a lively, well-established feel, shaped by a strong mix of independent businesses and open green space. Nearby, the Leytonstone Railway Arches have become a popular local hub, with Tun Café and Bar offering a relaxed daytime spot, Leyton Calling bringing a tropical cocktail bar atmosphere, and Gravity Well Taproom known for its craft beers. Francis Road is also close at hand, celebrated for its pedestrianised stretch of independent cafés, shops, and well-loved spots including Yardarm and The Northcote Arms, alongside a weekend market that adds to its friendly, community-led character. For a change of pace, Leyton Jubilee Park offers wide open lawns, sports facilities, and plenty of room to unwind outdoors.

A word from the expert...

“I have called Leytonstone home for five years and have grown to love its eclectic character. From gastro pubs like Leytonstone Tavern and The Red Lion to bistro cafés such as The Wild Goose Bakery and Back to Ours, there is always somewhere new to enjoy. Wanstead Flats offers a peaceful green escape from city life. The area is rich in history, with Grade II listed landmarks including St John’s Baptist Church from 1832 and Leytonstone House, once home to Sir Edward Buxton. St Andrew’s Church, built in the late 19th century as a memorial to William Cotton, is another striking landmark. On quieter days, Leytonstone Library is a welcoming spot, while Leytonstone Leisure Centre is ideal if you are feeling active. Nearby Wanstead Park has walking trails, cycle paths and lakes, perfect for unwinding. With plenty of bus routes and the Central line close by, the City is only minutes away”.
