Drayton Road Leytonstone , E11 4AS

IF YOU LIVED HERE…

You’ll love living in an area that has so much going on, with a choice of activity for whoever your mood…

Around the very nearby Grove Green Road area you’ll find some fantastic food and drink-based amenities, including the Filly Brook, Heathcote & Star and Arch Deli. The former also acts as an event space, so you can get your culture fix there too.

You’re also within easy reach of the equally dynamic Francis Road, where you’ve got everything from the upmarket deli Yardarm to independent book shop Phlox, with lots more in between.

Head east for the modern buzz of Leytonstone, where highlights include the friendly Red Lion pub, eclectic bar The Birds, award-winning Thai restaurant Singburi thai and hidden gem Panda dim sum. Homies on Donkeys (which won BBC2’s Britain’s Top Takeaway) has just moved in there from E17, so you can probably expect plenty of other creative businesses to follow, too.

Leytonstone tube is only five minutes away, ensuring you can easily nip to central London on the Central line, while Leytonstone High Road is just 12 minutes on foot, where overground trains run between Gospel Oak and the newly opened Barking Riverside. Perfect for trips to the Essex seaside or Hampstead Heath.

After all that exploring, you’ll enjoy relaxing in your very own apartment. The generous rooms are full of potential, ready for you to start plotting your dream home. You’ve got an excellent starting point with the separate kitchen and reception room, while the two bedrooms are nicely balanced, with the smaller one perfect for a home office, guest room or nursery.

WHAT ELSE?

- Drivers are less than ten minutes from the North Circular.
-You’ll never be stuck for essentials since there’s an abundance of convenience stores on Leytonstone High Road, plus you’re only a short hop on the bus or Central line from Westfield Stratford and the Olympic Park, where there’s never a dull moment thanks to the packed event calendar.
- As well as Wanstead Flats, you’re less than a mile from the cusp of Epping Forest, which is great for rambling - and even rowing since there’s a boating lake.
