Windsor Road Leyton , E10 5LR

IF YOU LIVED HERE…

Coming in a 1350 square foot, this is a brilliant property to call your own, while the area is a fantastic place to lay down roots.

Your double-reception room is full of period charm and awash with natural light thanks to the dual aspect windows. The ornate fireplace and ceiling roses are a reminder of the home’s Victorian roots, but the neutral decor and polished finished bring it all bang up to date. Features such as the custom shutters and bespoke shelving add to the timeless style.

The kitchen/diner is just as spotless, with glossy white units and lovely engineered flooring, as well as a stylish feature wall. During warmer months, you can spill outside to rear garden and enjoy the beautiful array of mature foliage on display in the custom planters from the raised sun trap patio at the rear.

Back inside, don’t forget the ground floor WC and also the basement, which will be brilliant for storage.

On the first floor, the three pristine bedrooms have been thoughtfully decorated. The bathroom on this floor is smart and modern, as is the one on the second floor, so there won’t be any queuing in the morning. Also in the loft, you’ll find two further bedrooms - both beautifully decorated, and plenty of room for storing things in the eaves.

As for beyond that handsome frontage, about ten minutes north-east, you’ll come across the part-pedestrianised Francis Road, which is now recognised across the capital as a hub thanks to its eclectic mix of eateries and stores, ranging from upmarket deli Yardarm and independent book shop Phlox, to mouth-watering patisserie Morny and independent store Dreamhouse records. Nearby, around the Leyton Midland Road arches, you’ve got some brilliant new choices, including the much lauded smokehouse Burnt (‘dreamy’ according to the Guardian), as well as Gravity Well Taproom.

Walk 15 minutes south-west (or hop on the bus if you’re in a hurry) and you’ll in find yourself in the iconic Olympic Park, and just beyond that, Westfield Stratford. Nearby there’s also East Bank, a unique collaboration between world-leading universities, arts and culture institutions including Sadler’s Wells, BBC and V&A. Even closer to home, you’ll find both Coronation Park and Jubilee Park.

WHAT ELSE?

- Parents will be pleased to know you have a wide choice of great primary and secondary schools in the area.
- You won’t ever be stuck for essential items thanks to the great selection of convenience stores on Leyton High Road. You’ve also got an Asda Superstore less than a mile away.
- Even if you’re not a follower of football, it’s worth checking out the nearby Leyton Orient. Currently in League One, the ‘O’s’ encourage people of all ages to come along to the Breyer Group Stadium to take in the sights and sounds of a game.
