If you lived here...

Entering through your communal garden, you'll be able to lock up your bicycle in the useful storage hanger before opening the gate to your own, 180 square foot, patio garden. Take a few minutes to enjoy the tranquillity and privacy this space has to offer before heading straight in to your huge open plan lounge, kitchen and diner. Large twin windows overlook your garden and bathe the blonde herringbone flooring in natural light.

In your kitchen smooth white cabinetry blends seamlessly into the streamlined chrome appliances and glossy white splashbacks. Moving through to your bedroom you'll find built in storage, velvety carpet underfoot and two bright floor to ceiling windows. Next door and your bathroom is a sleek elegant affair, with floor to ceiling smoky grey tilework, chrome fixtures and fittings, a freestanding sink with vanity unit and a rainfall shower over the tub. Finally, back in the hallway, you have another useful built in storage area.

Epping Forest is only ten minutes' walk from your door. Enter via the Whipps Cross Road entrance and start your woodland adventure at Leyton Flats. Head North to Hollow Ponds where you can rent row boats for a different, duck's perspective on the lovely views. Abbots Park is also nearby, where you can workout in the fresh air of the open gym or play tennis on one of the public courts. If you prefer to swim head over to Leyton Leisure Centre, just a half mile from your door and equipped with a full-size swimming pool, 102 station gym and a relaxing sauna and steam room.

A word from the owner...

As a local I was drawn to the boutique development due to the aesthetics and quality of the finishes, as well as the privacy of the quiet one way street being hard to find elsewhere in the area. This turned out to be a great decision for us as the flat comes with generous proportions and lots of storage space which has given us the ability to grow within the flat. The private ground floor entrance and terrace has been a perfect fit for our dog and with Hollow Ponds being just a 5 minute walk away this has been an amazing place for our long dog walks where we have made many new friends on the way.

Our neighbours in the rest of the flats are also a great group of people, both friendly and helpful. We have really enjoyed the location of the property which is a 10 minute walk to both Leytonstone Underground and Leyton Midland stations and with buses at the top of our road taking you to either Walthamstow or Hackney in just 20 minutes. Leytonstone is a vibrant and community led area with lots to offer, including a number of bustling pubs and great restaurants, with The North Star and Homies on Donkies being just two of our many favourites.
