Francis Road, Leyton E10

A beautifully appointed two bedroom garden apartment, sat directly on Leyton's favourite social hub of Francis Road. Inside you have a brilliantly bright, open plan kitchen and lounge, flawlessly finished and giving directly on to your South West facing garden.

Classic boxhatch timber flooring flows underfoot throughout, accompanied by soft contemporary colour schemes from Lick and Farrow & Ball. From the gorgeous, open plan kitchen, lounge and diner to your designer bathroom, this is a true five star find.

With Francis Road on your doorstep you have a fine choice of independent cafes and delicatessens to choose from. Leyton tube is just fifteen minutes on foot for speedy City and West connections via the Central line.

Set back from the road by a neat paved front yard, your dedicated front door sits below charming original moulding.

Inside and the hallway quickly blooms out into your open plan lounge, kitchen and diner of around 350 square feet. That classic box hatch timber flooring runs underfoot, serving as a striking focal point, while bespoke built-in cupboards maximise storage and functionality.

Vertical letterbox splashbacks and marbled worktops separate the upper and lower deck of cabinetry, and the larder cupboard features Farrow & Ball Parma Grey paintwork. An oversized stainless steel chef's oven completes things, sat in its own downlit nook, with more pristine white vertical letterboxes rising to the ceiling.

Flooded with natural light, the whole space sits dual aspect between the bay window at the front and the glazed patio door to the rear, leading directly out to your South West facing garden.

Out here you have an immaculately paved and pleasantly secluded side return, leading to your rear garden proper. Here a lush length of lawn is surrounded by a mix of striking blue and modern lattice timber fencing, plus pebbled beds and some thriving foliage. A wonderful outdoor retreat.

Back inside and your bathroom is suitably pristine and immaculate; flawless white tilework runs from floor to ceiling, with dark onyx fittings, including a designer rainfall shower over the tub, making for an elegant contrast.

The bedrooms are finished in tranquil creams with more of that lovely box hatch flooring. Bedroom two, to the rear, is especially generous, coming in at over 100 square feet with twin windows and a large integrated wardrobe.
