A charmingly characterful, surprisingly spacious, one-bedroom freehold house set within easy reach of Leyton Midland Road, the much-loved local life of Leyton and open green spaces nearby. Smartly decked out and with its own patio and roof terrace, this is a beautiful home right in the very heart of things.
IF YOU LIVED HERE…
You’d be welcoming friends and family into your gloriously unique 120 square foot lounge with sleekly engineered timber floorboards underfoot. A skylight beckons in streams of natural light and patio access gives the room an easy indoor-outdoor feel, with a beautiful black staircase leading to your private roof terrace. But more about that later.
Your ground floor’s also home to a bathroom brimming with personality and original designer flair, with a tub and rainfall shower, heated towel rail and wealth of storage, as well as your generous kitchen/diner. Coming in at over 170 square feet, it’s handsomely attired in a suite of walnut cabinets and comes with a full complement of integrated appliances. There’s room to dine, cook and settle in, with a thoughtful layout that feels practical without losing its charm.
Upstairs and your bedroom’s a huge 180 square foot double with six doors of built-in storage, a tower radiator and another skylight, all with a calm, pared-back finish. Lastly, your aforementioned roof terrace is a massive 220 square feet of private timber-decked space; a brilliant extra spot for a morning coffee, evening drinks or a quiet moment in the sun, and the perfect finish to this innovative and striking home.

a word from the owner....
"I fell in love with this gem of a house when I first stepped inside, and still feel the same way every time I come home – the clever design, masses of storage and stylish fixtures and fittings have made it a comfortable and beautiful place to call home. The outdoor terrace is a huge bonus, whether for a morning coffee or having friends over on a summer evening, and the light-filled living room doubles up as my home office. Leyton has really evolved since I moved here; Leyton Midland Arches (a 5-min walk) is now full of cool bars and bakeries, Francis Road's bookshops and cafés are a few minutes' further, and it's not far to Walthamstow Village's boutiques and pubs (and the contentious Gail's!). The newly opened Soho Theatre is within walking distance, and the V&A East in Stratford is a cycle away. I've loved having so much green space a short cycle away (Hackney Marshes, Wanstead Flats, Leyton Jubilee Park) and for getting into town, there's easy access to the Victoria and Central lines on foot or via a short bus ride if it's raining; Clapton, Dalston and Hackney are also served by direct buses a minute from the door. In the immediate vicinity there's a big Tesco and Aldi as well as plenty of corner shops and the odd deli, bakery and wine shop. It's a real sweet spot for anyone looking for proximity to culture, parklife and routes into central London, and I'll be sad to leave!"

Our Local Guide:
Leyton
Assured locals barely bat an eyelid when the national press dub Leyton one of ‘best places to live’ in London – it’s been a regular feature since the 2012 London Olympics regeneration, but the area’s constant evolution means even frequent visitors can get taken aback by just how much it has going on.
With the lively cafes on Francis Road, the bustling High Road, the family-friendly footie action and easy access to the Olympic Park, Leyton can often feel like a city within a city. What’s more, these various layers work together to create a balanced community that comes free of any pretension, so even newbies can find themselves having a natter with the locals while they explore Leyton’s latest delights. It’s an easy reach too, with the Central line connecting Leyton with the city to the west, and leafy Essex to the east.

Transport links
There’s no ‘late’ in Leyton thanks to the excellent transport links. Leyton tube is on the Central line with direct trains into the City and Central London, while Leyton Midland Road is handily placed on the Overground line, as is the new-ish Lea Bridge station.
Great Pubs
Whether you want a quiet pint in the sunshine or a night of banging tunes, Leyton has you covered for pubs. With The Leyton Star, The Coach & Horses, William the Fourth, locals and visitors are spoilt for choice.
Plenty of period property
Leyton’s amenities might be largely new additions, but a lot of the property is gloriously old. Victorian and Edwardian houses are plentiful - including budget-friendly ‘doer-uppers’, and the wide tree-lined streets add further appeal.
