Albert Road, Leyton E10

Impressively placed and charmingly finished, this two bedroom first floor garden apartment echoes the popular Warner style with dedicated front door and private rear garden. Nature, nightlife and transport are all close at hand.

Warm finishes, natural light and original floors ensure everything's charming and characterful, with a thoughtfully curated colour palette throughout. You have over 675 square feet of living space, and some of your neighbours have also extended into the loft.

Your new home


Step inside for a handy, modest entrance hall and then climb the stairs for your landing, with charming timber bannisters and original floorboards running underfoot.

These flow on into your front lounge, a generous 150 square feet, with the blonde vintage floorboards finished to a striking high gloss. Natural light pours in through the large bay window, dressed in classic bistro shutters and emphasising the high ceilings.

There's an ornately tiled period hearth taking centre stage between bespoke storage and open shelving. A welcoming and practical social space.

Your bedroom is next door, a 110 square foot double with a white and olive green paint job split by the original dado rail. There's also a pair of integrated floor to ceiling wardrobes and a striking ebony vintage hearth.

Back to the front you have bedroom two, a substantial single sat next to the lounge with more bistro shutters, pale pastel green walls and warm dusky timber trim.

To the rear you have your dining room, featuring more original hardwood floors and smoky paintwork. Also ideal as a home working nook. It's laid open to your kitchen, decked out with lovely terracotta cabinets below dark timber worktops and home to a stainless steel range oven and matching extractor hood.

Finally your bathroom sits to the rear, elegant in white and blue with a rainfall shower over the tub, and a set of internal stairs lead down to a sunny, secluded garden, finished in decorative pebbles and bordered by timber fencing and mature greenery.
