2 bed Flat For Sale £440,000
Detailed Description
The ideal blank canvas for you to make your mark, this two-bedroom ground floor period conversion flat enjoys its own private garden. Set in a detached Victorian house on a quiet tree-lined residential street, it's close to both tube and Overground stations, with a host of local shops, pubs, cafes and good schools nearby.
Recently renovated with beautiful, engineered wood parquet flooring throughout, a fresh neutral palette, chrome fittings and stripped panelled doors to every room, it's ready for you to simply add your own decorative touches.
With a grey and white-painted brick exterior, the house sits behind traditional-style iron railings and has bay windows, original stonework and a panelled front door.
Entry to the flat is through a short communal hall, with an internal front door leading into the living room where light floods in through the double-glazed double bay window, currently fitted with white wooden venetian blinds. Soft blue-grey walls with white woodwork and dado rail are paired with attractive ash herringbone flooring, while two wide alcoves are perfect for installing built-in bookshelves.
The adjacent kitchen is fitted with contemporary black gloss units, a marble-laminate worktop and cream metro tiles. Stainless steel details such as the sink, sprayer tap and chimney-style extractor hood mirror the steel four-ring gas hob and electric oven. There's also a combination boiler that was replaced in 2020 and plumbing for a washing machine. A useful corner area contains a tall freestanding fridge-freezer, but there's plenty of extra room to house a generous American-style model instead.
Beyond, along a hallway (which has a handy storage cupboard) lies the bathroom. A blend of traditional fittings with contemporary styling, there's an elegant freestanding bath with shower mixer tap and chrome feet; a ceramic sink with vanity; and a close-coupled loo. A statement mirror reflects the light from the window, while pale cappuccino-coloured metro wall tiles pair with geometric patterned floor tiling in a clean and stylish look.
At the back, the two good-sized double bedrooms benefit from views onto the garden. Both are bright and airy, with stripped wood panelled doors, ash herringbone flooring and soft blue-grey painted walls.
The primary bedroom opens out onto the 31ft north-east facing garden. Enclosed on all sides by rendered walls - ready to be painted the colour of your choice - there's an impressive view of the historic railway viaduct behind. A timber deck provides a spot from which to enjoy the sun, while a low-maintenance loose slate area could easily be converted to lawn. A wooden shed provides valuable storage, and a well-established lilac bush grows along the right-hand wall. In the summer through to autumn there's a wonderful ivy backdrop.
In the neighbourhood
Heading into the neighbourhood, the local lifestyle is varied and full. There's the newly opened Unity Café at the top of the road with an outdoor terrace. Three great pubs - The Northcote, Leyton Technical and Heathcote & Star - are close by along with a wonderful village scene on Francis Road including Marmelo Kitchen restaurant, Yardarm wine bar and shop, Phlox bookstore, Albert & Francis café and Pause yoga studio. High Road Leytonstone's pubs and cafes are all within a wander.
With so much local transport, including plenty of local bus routes stopping on nearby Grove Green Road, the apartment is extremely well connected. Leytonstone tube and High Road Leytonstone Overground stations are both a short walk away, making it easy for getting to Central London and Canary Wharf, as well as for trips to Camden, Hackney, Hampstead and - for retail therapy at Westfield and wide-open space in the Queen Elizabeth Park - Stratford.
Also nearby are several well-performing local schools include Newport Primary and Norlington for Boys, along with numerous nurseries.
