Newport Road, Leyton, E10

A bright and substantial two bedroom, first floor apartment, sat just off the sought after social hub of Francis Road. You have a wealth of original features, the high ceilings of the period, clean contemporary finishes and a private garden to the rear.

Rooms are generous, totalling around 700 square feet, full of natural light, spacious and airy with the high ceilings of the period. Decor is simple and tranquil, there's a dedicated dining room as well as a front lounge and you have a lengthy forty four foot garden to the rear.

Francis Road is right on your doorstep, famous for its independent delis, bars and coffee spots. Leyton tube and Leyton Midland Road Overground are both around a half mile on foot, and you're well served for greenery, with a choice of four parks within a fifteen minute stroll.

YOUR NEW HOME

Climb the stairs and your landing is immaculate in cream, with soft complementary carpet underfoot.

First stop is your lounge, 140 square feet and naturally bright courtesy of that large bay window. The carpet runs on underfoot, and there's a charming bespoke bookcase under the vintage timber mantel, with more open shelving either side of the chimney breast and original moulding tracking across the ceiling.

Next door is your first bedroom, a generous single with glossy hardwood flooring, ideal for a child or dedicated home working space. Your principal bedroom is just off the landing towards the back, a substantial double with a smoky grey statement wall and garden view.

Moving on, your dedicated dining room adds another 115 square feet of social space, with high ceilings and lots of natural light, as throughout. Slate tilework runs underfoot and there's a stately pale grey colour scheme.

Your kitchen's laid open to one end of the diner, with a horseshoe of neat white cabinets, metro tile splashbacks, timber style worktops and a kitchen sink view of the garden Finally your family bathroom completes things, in large format sandstone letterbox tilework and a smart white suite.

A set of internal stairs leads down to your garden, a forty four foot mix of lawn and patio. Your length of lush lawn is flanked by timber fencing and ends in a handy shed and secluded patio. A great spot for dining al fresco.

YOUR NEW NEIGHBOURHOOD

You have Leyton's famous cafe capital of Francis Road just a few steps away, home to an ever evolving range of independent delis, bars and coffee spots. Yardarm is great for wines, Marmelo Kitchen offers deli food to take away, and The Northcote Arms is one of E10's best gastropubs with a packed diary of live events.

There's also the new KERB street market every Saturday from ten until four, and a programme of live events from silent discos to pop up film screenings, courtesy of Francis Road Lates.

Schools are excellent, with a particularly good choice of primaries; Newport, Willow Brook and Davies Lane were all rated 'Outstanding at their last inspections.

Leyton Midland Road Overground is equally handy for the Suffragette line, as well as some more charming eating and drinking spots under and around the arches.

Finally you're also well served for nature; Sidmouth Park, Coronation Gardens, Jack Cornwell Park and Abbotts Park are all within easy reach, while the vast natural expanse of Hackney Marshes is around twenty minutes away.
