Ideally located between the vibrant buzz of Leytonstone and the tranquillity of Hollow Ponds, this beautifully presented two-bedroom apartment sits on the ground floor of an eye-catching period property. Inside, you’ll find a spacious reception room and separate kitchen, while outside a generously sized, leafy rear garden offers your own slice of calm.

With a fantastic mix of local cafés, shops and green spaces right on your doorstep, you’re perfectly placed to enjoy the best of both worlds - and when you need to venture further, Leytonstone tube is just a few minutes away, speedily whisking you into the City or West End via the Central line.

IF YOU LIVED HERE…

You’ll love the sense of space this home offers. Step through the beautifully designed entrance hall and into your glorious reception room, where generous bay windows flood the space with natural light, showing off the immaculate decor and elegant period beading. Both bedrooms are well proportioned, and thanks to the smart, efficient layout, not a single inch goes to waste.

The kitchen is sleek and modern, featuring well-designed units, smart integrated appliances, and classic metro brick tiling for a stylish finish. This contemporary feel continues into the pristine bathroom, thoughtfully laid out with a spacious walk-in shower and more eye-catching tiling for a cohesive, polished look.

You’ll love spending time in your generous garden, complete with a decked patio and a lush green lawn - perfect for soaking up the sun and enjoying a little peace and privacy, thanks to the shelter of mature trees.

As for the location, you’re perfectly positioned to enjoy the eclectic spots found around the nearby Grove Green Road hub, including the Filly Brook, Heathcote & Star and the Northcote Arms - one of our faves. Or foodie highlights off the Leytonstone High Road include hidden gem Panda dim sum and sensational taqueria Homies on Donkeys, which won BBC2’s Britain’s Top Takeaway. But there’s plenty more to explore, from Leyton’s Francis Road to Forest Gate’s Winchelsea Road.

Leytonstone tube is only seven minutes away, ensuring you can easily nip to central London on the Central line.

WHAT ELSE?

- As well as being a few minutes to Leytonstone tube for the Central line, Leyton Midland Road station is slightly further in the other direction for the Suffragette line - handy if you want to nip to the Essex seaside or Hampstead Heath.
- Despite the thriving amenities, there’s a surprising amount of green space nearby. For instance, head south via the Bushwood area - renowned for its wide, tree-lined streets of grand Victorian and Edwardian homes - and you’ll find the Wanstead Flats, once the favoured hunting ground of Henry VIII. Hollow Ponds, at the tip of Epping Forest, is also walking distance.
- Hop on a bus for a few stops and you’ll in find yourself in the iconic Olympic Park, and just beyond that, Westfield Stratford, which won’t need an introduction. Nearby there’s also East Bank, a unique collaboration between world-leading universities, arts and culture institutions, including Sadler’s Wells, BBC and V&A.

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." JOSEPH EARNSHAW E11 BRANCH MANAGER

Our Local Guide:
Leytonstone

Bulwer Road, Leytonstone — Stow Brothers

There’s more to Leytonstone than first meets the eye. Say the name to one person and they might think of the grand houses around Hollow Ponds, while say it to someone else and they’ll mention burgeoning South Leytonstone, or maybe the popular Bushwood. There are many different pockets, but they’re all united by the same inclusive community who recognise that it’s the balance of it all that makes Leytonstone so great.

The centre is arguably the high street with its eclectic shops and eateries, but you only have to venture slightly further away and you’ll come across hidden gems like bar Filly Brook on Grove Green Road, music venue Luna Lounge in Bushwood, or the The Hitchcock Hotel in Upper Leytonstone. Travel a little beyond and you’ll find further contrast with the vast green space that Hollow Ponds and the Wanstead Flats provide. Simply put, you’ll never get bored in Leytonstone.

Transport links

Just two stops from Stratford, Leytonstoners can nip to the Kent coast with surprising ease, but Central London or the City on the tube might be more useful - the former takes about 25 mins and the latter 15 mins. Easy.

Great Pubs

Too many pubs to choose from… What a problem to have. With The Red Lion, Heathcote and Star, The Hitchcock Hotel, The North Star, Leytonstone Tavern, locals are spoilt for choice. Better bring your pub crawl A-game if you visit.

Plenty of period property

Despite all the urban bustle, Leytonstone has an abundance of wide, tree-lined streets brimming Victorian and Edwardian property, ranging from the grand homes in Upper Leytonstone, a stone’s throw from Hollow Ponds, to the many terraces of South Leytonstone, and the popular community of Bushwood with its active residents’ association.
