3 bed Flat For Sale £500,000
A sublime three bedroom duplex apartment spread over the first and second floors of a Victorian terrace in our Leyton Grange Estate. Here you're perfectly placed for vast natural spaces, superb transport links and social hub Francis Road.
Leyton's increasingly popular, part-pedestrianised community cornerstone is half a mile away on foot and home to a dazzling array of independent stores, cafes and gourmet pubs. From the mouth-watering paninis at Albert & Francis cafe to the delicious Korean street food of Zaxx to the incredible patisserie of Morny Bakehouse, you're sure to find a future favourite.
If you lived here…
You'll be hosting gorgeous get-togethers in your elegantly appointed eat-in kitchen; your dining area sits beneath filament pendulum lighting and enjoys a lovely leafy view. A gleaming white metro tile backsplash, Belfast sink and bespoke open shelving nestling between solid oak cabinets plus timber worktops all make for a superlative culinary space, pluis Farrow & Ball finishes shine in here and throughout. Next door your lounge is a huge 215 square feet with a lovingly-restored period fireplace and twin windows framing more of those splendid green views.
The storey's completed by bedroom one, a pristine and generous seventy five square foot single. Up the stairs, past a wealth of storage space and swathes of natural light streaming in from twin skylights, and your skylit master bedroom's 180 square feet, blessed with a treetop vista and enough space for home working, should you require it. Bedroom three's a large double and just as beautiful as its predecessor with exquisite Farrow & Ball wallpaper. Lastly, the bathroom will take your breath away; a curved shower cubicle, separate tub, a floating Belfast sink and honeycomb mosaic marble tiles underfoot make for quite the designer space.
A twelve minute walk will see you to Leyton Midland Road for the Gospel Oak to Barking line. Alternatively, the Park Road bus stop around the corner will whisk you to Leyton (Central line) and Walthamstow Central (for direct twenty minute runs to Oxford Circus or Liverpool Street) as well as Wanstead Park and Forest Gate on the 58 route. Or hop on to the 158 to join the Victoria line at Blackhorse Road station, or be ferried to Stratford in the opposite direction. With connections to the DLR, Central and Jubilee lines, the shopping colossus of Westfield Stratford City or the incredible Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, this is a destination that needs no introduction.
What else?
- There's a grand total of twenty primary/secondary schools less than a mile from your new home, all rated 'Good' or better by Ofsted with an impressive five deemed 'Outstanding'.
- Leyton Jubilee Park is five minutes' walk from your front door anytime you fancy a picnic or a stroll. It's home to scrub meadows, open green lawns, cafes and courts. If you like your nature a little wilder then Hackney Marshes lies just beyond.
- You'll find the Feel Good Too Sports Centre just a ten minute walk or three minute cycle through the park (you've space for a bike rack in the hall and you're surrounded by superb cycle routes). Here you have floodlit all-weather pitches, courts, a running track, fitness trail and cafe.

A word from the owner...
I have had some of the happiest years of my life in this apartment, and would love to pass it onto someone who get as much enjoyment out of it as I have. I have spent many an evening hosting friends for lively dinners and spent summer's cycling to Broadway Market (can go all the way off road) as well as sunbathing /exploring the parks on the doorstep. I enjoyed picnics by the river Lea and often finished my working days with a dip in Hampstead Ponds (a few stops away on the Midland line).
As an artist, I was originally captured by the space and light in the apartment and kept on adding roof windows to the upper floor (which currently sand at six) – making for bright mornings and starry nights (though there are blackout blinds for the required lie ins!). I loved the sense of being on top of the world that the space gives you – it is a little taller than the other period properties in the area so you can see across to the city and canary wharf from the front and the hills of Hampstead and Highgate to the back. At night, the lights twinkle and wink back at you and you feel connected to the beating heart of London, as well as in your own sanctuary.
I originally renovated the space with a view to staying for life and included everything that would last (real wood floors, solid oak kitchen, marble bathroom floor etc) and hope others will benefits from this. I am so sad to leave, though the twists and turns of life are now taking me in another direction, but I hope the next owner gets as much pleasure from the place as I have.
