Siskin Apartments, Dunedin Road, Leyton, E10

Elegantly finished and modern throughout, this designer one bedroom balcony apartment features lots of natural light. Perfectly positioned in Leyton, it combines a thriving local scene, open green spaces and excellent connections to the City and beyond.

Everything's boxfresh and immaculate, with floor to ceiling windows, a wealth of extra storage and high end fixtures and fittings throughout, from hardwood floors to sleek and glossy kitchen cabinets. Outside, there's a well sized balcony, with gloriously elevated 180 degree views.

The location's every bit as enviable, with the character and energy of Leyton on your doorstep. The wild greenery of Hackney Marshes is within easy walking distance, as well as the speedy Central line links of Leyton tube, both around ten minutes away on foot. Finally Stratford, the Olympic Park and East Village are all also within reach.

YOUR NEW HOME

Step inside and you have a nicely sized hallway, with your bathroom on the left.

In here there's a shower over the full sized tub, flawless large format tilework in soft sandstone and an oversized mirror. All in an immaculate, boutique standard.

At the other end of the hall is your bedroom, a generous double of 125 square feet, softly carpeted with a floor to ceiling window. Pristine white paintwork makes the most of the morning light, with a royal blue statement wall above the bed.

The hallway's completed by the first of two substantial storage units – always a welcome bonus in London apartment living – and then it's on into the sprawling open plan living area for the main event.

Rich dark hardwood floors flow underfoot throughout this naturally bright, artfully zoned space totalling around 300 square feet. The lounge area is first, sat between light streaming in from the balcony and a handy little study nook with its own floor to ceiling window.

An even larger storage unit is on the left, before you follow the room round and step into your kitchen. Decked out with a generous suite of sleek glossy cabinets, with dark marbled worktops, there's plenty of room for dining and a full complement of integrated appliances.

Finally, your balcony. Step out here for over seventy square feet of sheltered, elevated outdoor space. You have widescreen views over pleasant allotments below, a superb spot for a morning coffee.

YOUR NEW NEIGHBOURHOOD

You can be out exploring your green views in around ten minutes, with the wonderful wilderness of Hackney Marshes barely half a mile on foot from your new front door. Amazing for runners and strollers alike, you'll forget you're in London.

It's all still close at hand though; Leyton tube is just ten minutes on foot for the Central line, from here it's just another ten direct to the City, and then ten more for the West End. So you can be wandering along Oxford Street in barely half an hour, door to door.

Keeping things local, the landscaped greenery of Coronation Gardens is on your doorstep, with the playgrounds of Sidmouth Park just a little further.

You also have the pride of E10's gastropub fleet just moments away. The Leyton Engineer serves up delicious Sunday Roasts in the Grade II listed surroundings of the old Town Hall, around five minutes way.

Francis Road, still justly renowned as Leyton's cafe capital, is a little further, ten minutes’walk in total and home to wine shops, Yardarm and delicatessens like Marmelo Kitchen as well as a wide range of cafes and coffee spots. There's also the KERB street market.

And whenever you want to wander a little further, the former Olympic Athletes’ village is just fifteen minutes away, now reimagined as East Village with a whole host of wining and dining options.
