House For Sale £475,000
A spacious two bedroom Victorian mid terrace with south-facing rear garden, abounding with potential on the Leyton borders. Leyton tube is nine minutes' stroll, while Stratford and Francis Road's myriad attractions are within easy reach.
The endlessly explorable Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park is less than half a mile away for the Velopark, Wetlands Walk and Hackney Marshes. We'd be remiss not to recommend a jaunt through the park to vibey Hackney Wick on a Sunday afternoon, stopping off at bright young talent Tom Brown's restaurant. Cornerstone serves up the freshest fish dishes from the past winner of Great British Menu.
If you lived here…
You'll be relishing making your new home your own with this ideal blank canvas, the only limit is your imagination. Your lounge comes in at 100 square feet with a brick fireplace, bay window and ceiling moulding; strong period fundamentals just waiting to be reinvigorated. Next door the dining room's almost as generous and looks out over the garden via windows that could perhaps be swapped for French doors, depending on your vision. Back through the hallway and the kitchen might be in need of some modernisation but it's a great size.
Your thirty foot south-facing garden's accessed from here. An ivy adorned, paved solace with scattered beds and a shed, here you have an already lovely space set to flourish further with some green fingers at the helm. Back inside and the storey's completed by a handy WC and a bathroom with a shower over the tub. Lastly, head up the stairway dividing your twin receptions for two 125 square foot double bedrooms, both perfectly pristine in white.
Outside and Leyton tube will get you directly to Liverpool Street in just eleven minutes or Tottenham Court Road in eighteen via the Central line. Stratford International station is thirteen minutes' walk or one stop away for Southeastern rail services and the DLR. Here's also where you'll find the legacy of the 2012 Olympics, the ever-evolving, independent cafes, bars and restaurants of East Village and the shopping mecca of Westfield Stratford City. Over 300 shops, food outlets, a cinema and casino spread out over almost two million square feet.
What else?
- Parents will be pleased to know there are seventeen primary/secondaries within a one mile radius, all rated 'Good' or better by Ofsted and including six deemed 'Outstanding'.
- The property comes chain free, so moving in will be a cinch.
- You're just a five minute stroll from The Leyton Star, a traditional pub brought bang up to date and serving up mouth-watering burgers.

Word from the expert...
I spend a lot of time in Stratford — running in the Olympic park, cycling at the outdoor Velo Park, shopping at Westfield or simply meeting friends. The area has come on leaps and bounds since the Olympics, with the new Olympic Village creating loads of amenities, green spaces, sports facilities … and not least Westfield, which is a must for shoppers and foodies.
Allegra, a sensational seafood restaurant on the seventh floor of The Stratford hotel would be my not-so secret pick, fantastic food, and a stunning roof terrace. For a lazy Sunday brunch, try The Breakfast Club along the canal at Here East. Well-connected and with world-class amenities, Stratford is an area to watch.
