Forest Road, Leytonstone

Set within a smart purpose-built development, this immaculately finished one-bedroom apartment has plenty of highlights, including the huge open plan living area, private balcony and an abundance of nature light. It’s all a short walk to Hollow Ponds at the tip of Epping Forest, while the urban buzz of Leytonstone can be found just as close to home. You’ve even got easy access to Wanstead, Walthamstow and Leyton. No wonder this part of Upper Leytonstone is so sought-after…

IF YOU LIVE HERE…

Set on the second - and top - floor, your open plan kitchen/lounge/diner will be the fantastic heart of your home, with plenty of room for spreading out. The decor is neutral, so you can enjoy the minimalist style, while the timber accents bring a feeling of warmth. The kitchen area is just as polished, with sleek units and integrated appliances. It’s pleasingly tucked to the side, but the entire space is gloriously open plan, with light flowing throughout.

The bedroom is a spacious double with more pristine decor, as well as soft carpeting and in-built storage. Finally the bathroom has been stylishly finished with sparkling fittings and an over-tub shower.

As for the location, it couldn’t be better… The main hub of Leytonstone is a short stroll, where you’ll find foodie hot spots like Panda Dim Sum, Homies on Donkeys and Mum Likes Thai Food. The burgeoning Grove Green Road neighbourhood is just as near, where you can take your pick from Filly Brook, Heathcote & Star and Arch Deli.
