Holden House, High Road Leyton, Leyton E10

Smartly appointed and handsomely proportioned, this one bedroom balcony apartment sits on the first floor of a modest, contemporary development right in the heart of things, with everything from Francis Road to the growing new offerings of Tilbury Yard all on your doorstep.

Finished in pristine white throughout to maximise the flow of natural light, all your rooms are generous and there's a wealth of extra storage scattered about, always a welcome bonus in London apartment living. And then there's that balcony for sheltered outdoor space.

You have Leyton's cafe capital of Francis Road and the up and coming new social hub of Tilbury Road both mere moments away, for a superb, ever growing choice of independent cafes restaurants and bars all right on your doorstep.
Your new home


You have a proper hallway here, broad and welcoming with blonde hardwood underfoot, plenty of incidental space, a substantial integrated utility space and a real house feel.

Your bedroom is directly ahead, a generous double of 150 square feet with floor to ceiling mirrored storage set into the walls and soft carpet underfoot.

Across the hall, your family bathroom is immaculate in white, tiled from tub to ceiling and floor to hip. There's a shower over the tub and a classic suite, including chrome heated towel rail.

The kitchen is next, stacked with a generous suite of sleek white cabinetry, home to integrated appliances and glossy, quartz style worktops. Cream tiles run underfoot, giving way to more engineered hardwood as it flows on into your lounge, with the whole space coming in at around 270 square feet.

The opposite wall is all glazed doors and windows, letting natural light flood in and leading out to your private balcony, nicely sheltered with blue sky views.
Your new neighbourhood


Just two minutes from your front door you have Leyton Midland Road Overground station, serving the Suffragette line for direct trains from Gospel Oak to Barking Riverside.

Alternatively, you can ride two stops to Blackhorse Road for a quick swap to the Victoria line, and speedy connections to Oxford Circus and King's Cross.

Even if you're not getting on a train though, it's worth exploring under the arches and surrounding streets. Craft beer fans will love Gravity Well Taproom and Libertalia, the award winning Burnt Smokehouse is still cooking up a storm and the original Perky Blenders cafe is just across the street.

Head along Tilbury Road towards burgeoning Tilbury Yard, and you'll find a whole host of more recent additions, plus regular events.

Not to be outdone, nearby Francis Road has recently added the Saturday kerb market, great for street food and fresh produce, as well as regular pop up events courtesy of Francis Road Lates, from silent discos to outdoor cinema.

That's all in addition to long standing favourites Yardarm wines, Marmelo Kitchen, the Northcote Arms and lots more.

When it comes to greenery, you have Abbotts Park and Jack Cornell Park both on your doorstep, while the endless expanse of Hackney Marshes is around thirty minutes on foot or ten by bike.

East London's growing network of protected cycle paths also offers you a direct route to Leyton tube, less than a five minute ride away for nine minute direct runs to Liverpool Street. It all adds up to an enviable door to door City commute.

Finally, local schools are excellent with a choice of primaries rated 'Outstanding' at their latest inspection.
