This two-bedroom ground floor Victorian maisonette on the much sought-after Abrahams Estate is a fine combination of original character and contemporary style with cosy décor and plenty of period features paired with modern comforts like gas central heating and double glazed windows.
The entrance hall opens up to the living room which includes a large bay window to the front, a cast iron fireplace and deep lilac walls up to the picture rail with a white cornice and ceiling that make it a rich and warm room in which to sit.
Next is the main bedroom, with a big double glazed widow looking towards the rear garden.
Then it's on to the kitchen/breakfast room which sits in the centre of the apartment and where you might feel you'd stumbled into the hottest new place for weekend coffee. This striking and stylish room has shiny black metro tiles, glossy white units, stainless steel appliances, granite effect worktops and slate finish floor tiles, A blast of lime paintwork at one end adds a final flourish.
Beyond the kitchen, off a small second hall which also provides access to the garden, the second bedroom makes a nice child's room, office or guest space and has another huge window overlooking the garden.
The bathroom has a large obscured window allowing in plenty of natural light. The white suite includes a bath with glazed shower screen and wash basin set into a vanity unit with storage below. Walls are fully tiled with contrasting brushed steel insets and trim, with floor tiles in a slate finish.
Outside, the timber decked rear garden is fenced on both sides and is all about simple modernity and low maintenance.
Part of the unique offering of the Abrahams Estate is the flourishing village parade of independent businesses on Francis Road, from the revered Marmelo Kitchen restaurant, to Yardarm wine bar and vintners, to Phlox bookstore selling new and second-hand titles along with great coffee. Elsewhere in the hood, fans of breakfast, coffee and cake have the much-loved Deeney's Café to satisfy their cravings, while taverns like The Northcote (great pizzas, cabaret), the Heathcote & Star (a lovingly restored gastro pub), and the lavishly cool Leyton Technical complete a truly enviable local collection.
For the big weekly shop there are two nearby superstores; Asda at Leyton Mills and a 24-hour Tesco at High Road Leytonstone.
There are four stations close by - two Underground (Leyton and Leytonstone - both Central Line) and two Overground (Leytonstone High Road and Leyton Midland) making access to the City, West End, Stratford and much of North and East London really accessible. Numerous buses stop along nearby High Road Leyton and Grove Green Road, including a handy night route.
