IF YOU LIVED HERE
You'll step into your bright hallway with vintage wooden floorboards underfoot and a timber staircase rising ahead for your first glimpse of the flawless vintage style flowing throughout. Take a left through double internal doors for your through lounge, brightly lit by that classic bay window. The foremost space is finished in tranquil sage green while to the rear you have a charming pale peach paint job.
To the rear you have your sleek and expansive contemporary kitchen and diner, an impressive twenty seven feet in depth. The dining area is bathed in light from a smoky box bay window, while slate tilework flows underfoot. Into the kitchen itself and pristine white quartz countertops sit above curvaceous cabinets and extend seamlessly into a matching splashback. To the rear you'll find a handy and flexible utility space, as well as a spare WC. Upstairs your family bathroom's a masterpiece with roll top, clawfoot tub and dedicated rainfall shower cubicle.
For the sleeping arrangements, you have four bedrooms laid out across two floors. Your first two double sleepers combine vintage floorboards with modern trim and plenty of natural light. Your converted loft is a fully fledged second storey, with two more bedrooms, welcoming and plush with soft carpets and minimalist decor. The principal sleeper treats you to rooftop views from the Juliet balcony while your second bathroom's a boutique, skylit affair, with metro tilework and slate grey flooring.
Outside there's no shortage of nature to get lost in. Endlessly explorable Epping Forest and the blue waterways of Hollow Ponds are both around a half mile on foot, with the latter offering rowboats for hire. For your new local, check out The Filly Brook, a cafe, bar and vinyl store selling records from the owner Simon's two record labels. Just a half mile on foot. A little further along you'll find the Heathcote and Star, a much loved traditional pub with a community feel and live music events.

A WORD FROM THE EXPERT...
"Leytonstone is a unique, eclectic area, with great gastro pubs like Leytonstone Tavern and The Red Lion to bistro cafés like The Wild Goose Bakery and Back to Ours, along with the open green space of Wanstead Flats, a serene getaway from the hustle and bustle of urban life.
The area is full of history, with interesting, beautiful Grade II listed buildings like St John’s Baptist Church (built in 1832) and Leytonstone House, the 18th-century home of Sir Edward Buxton, notable MP and conservationist. There’s also St Andrew’s Church, built in 1886–1893 as a memorial to local philanthropist William Cotton.
Leytonstone Library is a great place to visit if you’re feeling studious and Leytonstone Leisure centre is close by for the more actively minded. Wanstead Park, in the former grounds of Wanstead House, takes in walking trails, cycle paths and several ornamental lakes — a great place to relax, exercise and soak up some local history.
With an array of buses and the Central line underground station close by, you can be in the City and surrounding areas within minutes."
