1 bed Flat For Sale £280,000
Iqra Court 750A High Road Leytonstone, London E11

In the never-endingly popular Bushwood neighbourhood and hugged by the growing foodie hub along Leytonstone High Road and the southern tip of Epping Forest with its beautiful walks and bike rides, this contemporary one-bedroom apartment extends to approximately 448ft2 also lies on the doorstep of independent shops and popular pubs.

Only a six-minute walk from Leytonstone Underground (Central line), you’ll find the apartment just off the High Road in a residential area skirting Henry Reynolds Gardens.

To the front is a communal space with a well-maintained lawn and seasonal plants, while the flat itself occupies the ground floor, accessed by a private entrance.

Open the front door to enter a spacious and bright open plan living and dining room of almost 300ft2, which ends in a decent-sized kitchen with cream cabinetry to complement the white stone worktops, a glossy white metro-tiled splashback, and crisp white paint to the coved walls.

Spotlights above pair with a wide front casement window fitted with blinds for privacy, while good-quality laminate flooring underfoot and a large cast-iron radiator create a cosy atmosphere. There’s also a full-height storage cupboard in the corner.

Pass the kitchen – which also comes with an integrated AEG oven with electric hob and extractor hood, a 1.5-bowl sink beneath solid wood shelves, and a fridge-freezer – to reach the bathroom.

Fully laid with large format tiles to the spot-lit ceiling, it exuded instant luxury, echoed by the modern white sanitaryware, including a deep, double-ended bathtub with a glass screen and Grohe shower, a wall-mounted loo, and a pedestal basin beside a chrome heated towel rail.

Adjacent to the bathroom and lit by another big window with fitted blinds and a curtain pole to the front, the bedroom is a great-sized double, with coved white walls, ceiling spots and laminate flooring to match the living area. Meanwhile, a cast-iron radiator adds style and warmth.

A NOTE FROM THE OWNER

‘Cosy yet spacious, my minimalist yet stylish one-bedroom flat was perfect for me and my family to grow into. Located just a six-minute walk from Leytonstone Central line station, the location and style brought me to this property, but the local charm and amenities kept me here.’
