A sleek and flawless two bedroom apartment, naturally bright with banks of wall-spanning windows in every room. You're on the elevated ground floor of the landmark, Art Deco Trebor Sweet Factory, just around the corner from Upton Park tube.
This sought-after, Art Deco development dates back to 1907, when it was the property of a confectionery company called 'Robertson & Woodcock', later becoming 'Trebor' and specialising in Extra Strong Mints (famously 'a minty bit stronger').
IF YOU LIVED HERE
You'll have an impeccably appointed 700 square feet of living space to stretch out in - especially generous proportions for London apartment living - and all full of light thanks to your elevated ground floor status and wall-spanning windows in every room. Both bedrooms are decent doubles, the principal sleeper south-facing and 120 square feet, the second east-facing and coming in at around 100.
Elegant flooring flows underfoot throughout, combining with the pristine white walls to maximise the plentiful natural light. Your artfully arranged, dual aspect, 250 square foot kitchen/diner has a suite of cabinets, topped with dove grey metro tile splashbacks off to one side, leaving the lengthy lounge untroubled. Finally, your bathroom is home to both a tub and walk-in shower, with vintage geometrics underfoot and metro tiles on the walls.
Outside, Upton Park tube is just a ten minute walk around the corner, for a choice of the District or Hammersmith & City lines. Hop on the former for direct runs to the South Bank, while the latter will get you straight to Liverpool Street in just fifteen minutes. Staying local? Plashet Park is just five minutes away with ornamental gardens, kids play area and open spaces ideal for morning jogs or evening strolls.

Our Local Guide:
Forest Gate
If you’ve already heard Chiwetel Ejiofor or Idris Elba proudly discussing their hometown, you probably don’t need us to convince you of Forest Gate’s merits, but for those who haven’t, let us catch you up…
With a heritage rooted in culture, it’s not surprising that Forest Gate has a strong creative community today. During just one week in the 60s, the Upper Cut Club music venue there hosted – deep breath – The Who, the Animals, the Spencer Davis Group, Geno Washington and Jimi Hendrix. These days you’re more likely to find the area’s artistic-types supping drinks in the cool cafes and bars. Along with the period property and proximity to green space, this independent scene has been the main draw for new arrivals to the area, although the fact that Forest Gate is now on the Crossrail’s Elizabeth line has definitely helped nudge people in the right direction.
