Occupying the first floor at one of Leyton's famously and hearteningly hefty Edwardian terraced houses, this stylish three-bedroom conversion apartment is among the very best we've encountered with some beautiful architectural features and a stylish, high-quality contemporary refurbishment.
The apartment is characterised by its collection of enormous sash windows that allow so much light to flood in, accompanied by a wealth of period details including cast iron fireplaces, ceiling cornicing, picture and dado rails, lovely turned wood balustrades on the landing and, of course, the high ceilings so typical of these properties.
At the front of the apartment, the living room has a large 3m wide bay overlooking the leafy street along with a ceramic tiled cast iron fireplace. Next to the living room is a single bedroom, again with a large sash window to the front: perfect as a child's room or home office.
The master bedroom is directly behind the living room and has a large sash window to rear. The room can easily accommodate a large king size bed and double wardrobe.
Heading towards the rear of the apartment brings you first to the bathroom, which is fantastic, with plenty of light from a large double glazed frosted window in the style of the original sashes. Beautiful grey wall and floor tiles create a rich setting and are accompanied by a white suite, including bath with glazed shower screen, pedestal wash hand basin and close coupled wc, all with chrome accessories as well as a matching heated towel rail.
The kitchen is fitted with a range of sleek white wall and base units with handle-less doors and complimented by ceramic metro tiles and ash veneer worktops. Built in stainless steel appliances from Whirlpool include a gas hob, electric oven and extractor hood. There are spaces for a washing machine and a tall fridge/freezer, plus a wall-mounted combination boiler for the heating and hot water. Large format stone floor tiles complete the picture.
Finally, the second double bedroom with two huge sash windows overlooks the gardens towards the rear and has another cast iron fireplace.
With elegant laminate floor in the living room, plush grey carpeting to all the bedrooms, replacement panelled interior doors and stylish décor throughout, the apartment is a wonderful home in one of the most pleasant avenues in the Leyton & Leytonstone area on the sought-after Barclay Estate.
The very quaint Abbots Park is just at the end of the street and there are lots of local shops on High Road Leyton and Hainault Road, along with a nearby Sainsbury's Local.
Leyton Midland Road Overground station is a 5-minute walk and just 2 stops from an easy connection to the Victoria Line at Blackhorse Road along with the recently opened Walthamstow Wetlands. The Central Line at Leytonstone Underground station is less than a mile away.
Perched on the edge of some of East London's very best open spaces in Epping Forest and Hollow Pond, the apartment is also perfectly placed to enjoy Leytonstone's excellent local scene including The Red Lion and The Birds pubs; All You Read Is Love bookstore; Let Petit Corner café and Wild Goose Bakery as well as a large Tesco Superstore.
