Your new home


The frontage is smart in smoke grey with original mouldings above the bay window and front door, all nicely set back and shielded from the road by a handy hedge, for plenty of kerb appeal from the very start.

Inside your reception room is on the left, coming in at 140 square feet. Naturally bright and airy, with that large bay window and the high ceilings of the period, this is a great social space and a fine introduction, with soft smoke grey carpet underfoot and strong and simple white paintwork.

The kitchen is next door, with flanks of cream cabinets below timber style worktops and a vintage tiled splashback. Terracotta effect vinyl flows underfoot and you also have garden access. Your family bathroom is finished in a mix of white tiling and paintwork, with dark timber accents on the tub panel and classic suite.

Your bedroom sits to the rear, a 110 square foot double with integrated double wardrobe and more soft carpet.

Finally there is, of course, your private rear garden, accessed via the kitchen and totalling thirty feet in all. The sheltered side return leads to a large courtyard patio, overhung by mature greenery and flanked by beds. A little landscaping out here and you'll have the perfect outdoor retreat.
Your new neighbourhood


Just half a mile on foot you'll find Leyton Midland Road overground station. Not only does this offer direct connections to Barking Riverside and the River Thames, but a little exploring will reveal a wide range of eating and drinking spots, under and around the arches.

Among the newer additions is the latest iteration of Tilbury Yard, a weekend food market that's also home to an ever evolving choice of wining and dining residencies, as well as live music and DJs.

Meanwhile older favourites like the award wining Burnt Smokehouse, Gravity Well Taproom and the original Perky Blenders Cafe are all sure to become favourites.

Head up to E17 and The Village is almost as close. Walthamstow's famous collection of independent bars, cafes, shops, gastropubs and restaurants is less than fifteen minutes on foot.

Highlights here include The Queen's Arms, a classic sumptuous gastropub, The Good Egg, with bistro delicacies to eat in or take away, and The Nag's Head; a firm, longstanding favourite with lovely food, cosy fires and friendly cats.

Walthamstow Central station is a fifteen minute stroll or five minute cycle, and the Victoria tube line will get you to the West End in twenty minutes. There are also direct overground links to the City, with Liverpool Street also just twenty minutes direct.

Finally, nature. When it comes to local greenery, you have Leyton Manor Park practically on your doorstep. Abbotts Park and Jack Cornwell Park are both less than half a mile away and even the endless open space of Epping Forest can be yours in less than half an hour.
