Church Road Leyton , E10 7BX

IF YOU LIVED HERE…

You’ll love the level of consideration that has gone into restoring this apartment - from the stylish fittings to the sublime decor.

The kitchen is smart and modern, with sleek units, glossy metro brick tiles and an integrated oven. The adjacent living area is perfectly placed for entertaining, with sparkling white decor and bespoke carpentry to keep your knick knacks on display, but any clutter at bay.

Both the bedrooms are just as nicely finished - the larger of the two has a particularly beautiful blush colour scheme. Over in the bathroom you can admire the striking tiling and flooring, while the over-tub shower will be extra convenient.

You’ll love exploring your new area. Just 15 minutes away, you’ll find Leyton’s thriving hub Francis Road, where you’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to eateries or independent stores to browse. Nearby, around the Leyton Midland Road arches, you’ve got some more brilliant choices, including the much lauded smokehouse Burnt (‘dreamy’ according to the Guardian), as well as Gravity Well Taproom.

Or head a few blocks north to Lea Bridge Road, which has become an awesome new hot spot for independents, such as the eclectic event space/bar/pizzeria Patchworks, which now houses Blondies brewery - a great choice for a new local.

As for greenery, the sprawling Jubilee Park (Waltham Forest’s largest park, no less) is even closer to home and a hub for sport, play and relaxation.

WHAT ELSE?

- Leyton Midland Road station is a 15 minute walk for the Gospel Oak to Barking line, while Lea Bridge station is a couple of minutes further in the opposite direction, where you can nip to Stratford or Tottenham Hale for quick access to several very convenient tube lines. Buses are also plentiful.

- You won’t ever be stuck for essential items thanks to the selection of stores found on Leyton High Road and Lea Bridge Road, such as Aldi and Tesco.

- After a huge rebuild, the Lee Valley Ice Centre has just reopened. The new venue offers a range of learn to skate courses, public skating sessions and lessons that suit all ages and abilities. Alternatively, The Lee Valley Riding Centre runs all sorts of courses for pony-loving amateurs and experts alike. Both are a short walk away, so you’re in the perfect location for some new and unique hobbies.
