Its position offers far-reaching views towards Epping Forest, while a west-facing garden provides an inviting outdoor setting.

IF YOU LIVED HERE…
A beautifully balanced façade combines crisp render with warm red brickwork, giving the house a confident, timeless character. Broad bay windows and elegant detailing lend a distinguished presence, while the stepped entrance, framed by handsome double doors and stained glass, offers a memorable welcome. A neatly positioned garage completes the picture with practicality.

Once inside, the generous hallway sets an immediate tone of refinement, enhanced by patterned flooring and tall leaded windows that allow soft daylight to filter through. The original stained-glass door draws the eye, and the sweeping staircase with carved newel posts adds grandeur. Nearby, the downstairs WC continues the home’s polished presentation with metro tiling, patterned flooring and muted cabinetry.

The receptions unfold with an effortless rhythm, each room thoughtfully finished and well-proportioned. One enjoys a graceful bay window that emphasises the herringbone flooring and period fireplace, while another leads directly to the garden through full-height doors, encouraging a natural flow for gatherings and everyday living. The adjoining dining room maintains this inviting feel with multiple windows, a pale backdrop and a glazed internal door.

A meticulously presented kitchen brings deep navy cabinetry together with a pale tiled floor and twin windows, creating an uplifting setting for cooking and entertaining. Beyond the house, the garden stretches out with a broad terrace and an extensive lawn edged by mature planting, offering scope for quiet enjoyment or future ideas.

Upstairs, the first-floor bedrooms are generously proportioned and softly finished. A striking front room is centred around a bay window, while two further rooms overlook the garden and include built-in wardrobes. The bathroom pairs crisp walls with patterned flooring and metro tiling around the bath, while the additional shower room with WC offers a fresh, contemporary finish.

The loft level provides two serene bedrooms in gentle neutral tones, accompanied by extensive eaves storage, offering a quiet, versatile retreat suited to study, guests or downtime.

The surrounding neighbourhood offers a lively mix of convenience and greenery, with Leytonstone High Road close at hand for everyday essentials, independent cafés and dining. Favourites such as Wild Goose Bakery, Bocca Bocca and The Red Lion bring local character and make it easy to enjoy everything from weekend breakfasts to evening get-togethers. Wanstead Flats, part of the wider Epping Forest landscape, lies just moments away, providing an expansive sweep of parkland for walking, running or unwinding outdoors. Families benefit from an excellent choice of schools, including the outstanding Davies Lane Primary School, only a ten-minute walk from home.

“I have called Leytonstone home for five years and have grown to love its eclectic character. From gastro pubs like Leytonstone Tavern and The Red Lion to bistro cafés such as The Wild Goose Bakery and Back to Ours, there is always somewhere new to enjoy. Wanstead Flats offers a peaceful green escape from city life. The area is rich in history, with Grade II listed landmarks including St John’s Baptist Church from 1832 and Leytonstone House, once home to Sir Edward Buxton. St Andrew’s Church, built in the late 19th century as a memorial to William Cotton, is another striking landmark. On quieter days, Leytonstone Library is a welcoming spot, while Leytonstone Leisure Centre is ideal if you are feeling active. Nearby Wanstead Park has walking trails, cycle paths and lakes, perfect for unwinding. With plenty of bus routes and the Central line close by, the City is only minutes away”.
