Leyspring Road, Leytonstone

When it comes to location, this three-bedroom Bushwood end-terrace home really does offer the best of both worlds. Wanstead Flats and the woodlands leading into Epping Forest are close at hand, while Leytonstone High Street and the convenience of the Central line are just the other side of the neighbourhood.

The house itself has been beautifully restored, with original period character carefully preserved alongside a series of stylish, high-end updates. Inside, there’s a bright reception room, separate dining room, and kitchen, a downstairs WC and a first-floor family bathroom, while the generous rear garden provides plenty of outdoor space.

IF YOU LIVED HERE…

You’ll immediately appreciate the care that’s gone into restoring this lovely home. Beyond the classic frontage, the interiors strike just the right balance between original character and contemporary comfort.

The generous reception room is flooded with natural light, with smart flooring, bespoke shutters and beautifully crafted carpentry adding to its polished feel. At the heart of the room, a wood-burning stove brings warmth and atmosphere.

The bright dining room continues the polished theme and also opens directly onto the rear garden, making hosting particularly easy. The separate kitchen is smartly designed, with sleek finishes, plenty of storage and high-spec appliances, while the downstairs WC is a useful addition for everyday life.

Outside, the large rear garden feels nicely secluded and easy to maintain, with storage for bikes.

Upstairs, there are three beautifully finished bedrooms, along with an equally stylish family bathroom. A walk-in shower and vanity basin give it a luxurious, contemporary feel.

Outside, you’ll be delighted by your neighbourhood. To the north, Bushwood is renowned for its wide tree-lined streets of grand Victorian and Edwardian homes. Meanwhile, you’ll never be stuck for essentials since the Leytonstone High Road is mere metres away. There’s a brand new M&S, while other highlights include BBC2’s Britain’s Top Takeaway winner, Homies on Donkeys, sensational dining option Mum Likes Thai Food, Italian bakery FORNO, the newly-restored Red Lion pub and three-time CAMRA community pub of the year winner, the North Star.
