This well-presented one bedroom flat benefits from a generous footprint and off-street parking, alongside a fantastic location close to all the amenities of Leytonstone. Recently repainted and re-carpeted, this lovely property is ready to move right into, with enough space for both comfortable living and entertaining. Located on the top floor of an attractive two floor block and nestled away on a quiet road in Upper Leytonstone, this flat is a real find in this area. With your own allocated parking space to the rear, you’ll note the well-kept façade of the building, along with the tidy and consistently maintained grounds as you approach. Entering through the secure communal door, head up the stairs to the second floor and the private entrance to your stylish flat is situated to the right.
You’ll immediately note the bright and airy atmosphere and fresh, white décor as you enter your spacious lobby – with the property cleverly designed to offer access to each individual room from this central point. This area has some sturdy coat hooks in place with room underneath for shoe storage, and also houses the entry phone system for visiting friends and family. Starting from the right, let’s explore each room in turn… To the right, the reception room offers ample opportunity to personalise it to your individual taste. The light wood-style laminate flooring adds a lovely touch of warmth to the otherwise neutral décor, allowing for any design touches and colour accents you desire. This large space will happily accommodate a cosy sofa or suite, a dining table for eating, working or chatting with your favourite people over a drink and a range of additional furniture to help create the perfect environment for your lifestyle. The large dormer window provides plenty of light and an extra touch of character, with a sizeable recess to the side which could be purposed for a variety of uses. If you want a smart space that you can make your own in a heartbeat, this is it! Back into the lobby and the next room to your right is the beautiful and bright bedroom, finished with the same white walls as the rest of the property, but with a soft beige carpet to add to the sense of cosiness most befitting your personal space. Once again, with the addition of a little colour, your favourite artwork and your own little touches, you’ll make it feel like home in no time. The bedroom also benefits from dual aspect windows for both natural light and character, and has plenty of floor space for a double bed, wardrobes and any additional storage furniture you require. Back in the lobby and passing a small cupboard housing the water tank, the next room you’ll come to is the kitchen which will impress you with its surprising size – very unusual to find in a one bedroom flat, and perfect if you’re a bit of a culinary wizard! Every inch of the U-shaped kitchen has been dedicated to practicality, with a well-considered layout and plenty of storage thanks to a range of base and wall units, drawers and even an integrated wine rack. The kitchen comes fully equipped with integrated oven, hob and extractor hood, dishwasher and washing machine plus a free-standing fridge freezer. The colour scheme is light wood-effect units and laminate flooring, stone/beige square tiles with white paint above and black marble effect worktops. There’s also a full height unit for stowing away your cleaning kit and ironing board, and a run of power sockets near the hob for those additional cooking gadgets you need on hand.
Finally, before doing a full 360 back to the front door, to the right as you exit the kitchen is the sleek and smartly designed bathroom. Another good-sized space for this style of property, the WC is positioned immediately to your left, before you come to the bath with overhead shower and screen that has been cleverly integrated within an eaves recess. Light from the window to the end of the bathroom, where the sink is housed, is reflected off the mirrors placed above the radiator and handy shelf - helping to illuminate this modern-feeling bathroom. With the white walls and wooden-style laminate continuing through from the rest of the property, the bath and shower recess have also been finished with sophisticated white tiles to complement the theme.
Benefitting from gas central heating and double glazing throughout, this delightfully spacious and bright one bedroom flat will put you right at the heart of the popular area of Leytonstone. For your everyday needs, there’s a convenient store located on Essex Road less than a 5 minute walk away, while just on the other side of Leytonstone you’ll find a Tesco, Sainsbury's, Iceland and many more local shops. This is where you will also find popular pubs such as the Red Lion & North Star, coffee shops and bakeries and restaurants such as the Olive and La Bella Vita. If you’re a fan of live music, you’ll also find the Luna Lounge in this part of town. Leytonstonetube station is around 10 minutes’ walk away, or there’s a bus stop on Essex Road which is just a couple of minutes walk. Plenty of transport links offers easy access into the big city or surrounding local areas such as Leyton, Walthamstow, Wanstead and Stratford. For those who love the outdoors, Epping Forest and Hollow Ponds can be found only a short stroll away, and Whipps Cross hospital is also right on-hand – so this could be a brilliant purchase for doctors, nurses and other hospital staff.
