Millais Road Leytonstone , E11 4EZ

IF YOU LIVED HERE...

You'll be stepping past your teal front door and into your hallway leading to semi open plan twin receptions, with sanded original floorboards throughout. To the fore's your 145 square foot lounge with an elegantly shuttered bay window, vintage cornicing and a working wood burner nestled in an emerald green statement wall. Your dining room's no less impressive, featuring a tower radiator and garden access. Step out here for your thirty foot outside space where a shale courtyard leads to lawn flanked by beds as colourful as the interior. It all ends in a curved sun patio to the rear.

Head back inside, this time through your handy utility area, for your eat-in kitchen's chunky timber worktops, sleek white units and recessed spotlights illuminating proceedings. Next, pad past the stairway's glorious exposed brick to the first floor for two immaculate double bedrooms, plus a joyous sunflower yellow bathroom with a shower over the tub, metro tiled to the ceiling. All three spaces have a vintage fireplace apiece. Lastly, your second storey's home to your 160 square foot light and airy loft bedroom with a skylight, rooftop views and an impeccable en suite shower room.

Step outside and Leyton tube station, sat in zone three for the Central line, is seven minutes' walk away for direct eleven minute runs to Liverpool Street (via Stratford for interchanges and shopping at Westfield). Tottenham Court Road, for the West End, is just nine minutes further. Closer to home, both Leyton and Leytonstone High Roads are a short jaunt away, as is social hub Francis Road. For your new local we have to recommend the Leyton Star - a traditional East London pub with a heated beer garden and delicious burgers.

WHAT ELSE?

- Parents will be pleased to know that there are four 'Outstanding' primary/secondary schools in a mile radius. A further thirteen are deemed 'Good' and just as handy.
- After taking in the sights of the Olympic Park, stretch out a leisurely Sunday afternoon by crossing over the River Lee Navigation to Hackney Wick. Here a whole host of esoteric destinations await just half an hour from your front door. Cornerstone by Tom Brown comes highly recommended.
- With a secure bike hanger right outside, cyclists can easily make their way to the City via landmark East End destinations, or be whirring around the myriad routes of Wanstead Flats and Wanstead Park in under ten minutes.
