A naturally bright and smartly finished one bedroom apartment, on the first floor of a historic converted pub dating back to the nineteenth century. Handily placed, you have Leyton Midland Road overground less than ten minutes away on foot.
The artfully adapted original architecture is immaculately appointed throughout, with pristine white walls and light engineered hardwood underfoot. With a skylight in the bathroom and windows framing rooftop views, natural light is plentiful.
You're in the heart of Leyton here, just moments from the amenities of Lea Bridge Road and surrounded by green spaces from Leyton Manor Park to Jack Cromwell Park and Abbotts Park. Even Walthamstow Village is within walking distance.
Your new home
Sat on the first floor of the legendary Lord Clyde pub, you're surrounded by characterful original architecture here, as well as communal gardens which are great for meeting the neighbours. With only nine apartments total, there's a genuine community feel.
Step inside and your hallway's a generous affair, with plenty of incidental space. Lots of light, blonde hardwood floors and pristine white walls. Follow it to the end for your remarkable open plan lounge and kitchen.
Coming in at an impressive 240 square feet, twin double glazed windows frame rooftop views while recessed spotlights glimmer overhead. Your kitchen occupies one corner, a pristine, white and glossy suite of cabinets top and bottom, with a striking jet black metro tile splashback and quartz style worktops in between.
There's also a full complement of integrated appliances, including stainless steel oven, gas hob and matching extractor hood, as well as plenty of space for dining and reclining.
Next door your bedroom's a generous double of 110 square feet, finished in similarly sleek and bright style, and complete with striking statement wall. Finally your skylit bathroom makes for a naturally serene space, tiled from top to toe and with a designer rainfall shower over the bath.
Your new neighbourhood
As mentioned, there are no fewer than three of Leyton's splendid parks within a ten minute stroll. Leyton Manor Park is two minutes away, perfect for a morning or evening jog. Slightly further is Jack Cromwell Park, five minutes away and home to Brooks Farm, a working urban petting zoo.
Finally Abbotts Park, with tennis courts and playgrounds, is ten minutes on foot, while for even more ways to hit fitness goals, Leyton Leisure Centre is less than a half a mile on foot. Here you'll find swimming pools, gym and fitness classes.
Whenever you want to venture further afield, Leyton Midland Road overground is less than ten minutes walk for the Gospel Oak to Barking Riverside line (ride two stops for Blackhorse Road and the Victoria line). Alternatively, Leyton tube station, for the Central line, is just a twenty minute walk or seven minute cycle.
And speaking of bikes, you can join the cycleway on Lea Bridge Road and follow it all the way to Clapton in about twelve minutes, for the famous Hackney bar scene.
Finally, there's more nightlife to be had at Walthamstow Village, less than twenty minutes on foot or seven by bike for huge choice of wining and dining spots, from gastropubs to cocktail bars.
A spacious, bright and characterful one bed apartment, atop a bit of local history with communal gardens, a ready made community and nearby parks galore. An ideal first time buy in the heart of Leyton.
