A beautifully presented two-bedroom Victorian ground-floor flat with private south-west facing garden and driveway
Situated in the popular Upper Leytonstone area, this attractive two-bedroom Victorian period flat offers a wonderful combination of period character, contemporary presentation and private outdoor space. Recently decorated throughout, the property is ready to move straight into and benefits from its own driveway, double glazing throughout and a particularly impressive south-west facing private garden.

Approached via its own driveway, the property opens into a bright and airy front reception room, where a large period bay window floods the room with natural light and provides an attractive focal point. The recently decorated interior creates a fresh and welcoming feel while retaining the character and proportions associated with Victorian properties. The property is double glazed throughout, adding to the comfort and practicality of the home.

There are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, both of which have been recently decorated, providing bright and versatile accommodation.

The newly tiled bathroom has been finished in a clean and contemporary style and comprises a bath, WC and wash hand basin. A window provides natural light and ventilation, while the bathroom is fully tiled for a smart and easy-to-maintain finish.

To the rear, the kitchen is arranged with a good range of units along both sides, providing useful storage and preparation space. The kitchen includes a dishwasher and benefits from direct access onto the property's real highlight — a large private south-west facing garden.

The garden has been thoughtfully improved with a new lawn and dedicated seating area, creating an excellent private outdoor space for entertaining, relaxing, dining al fresco or enjoying the afternoon and evening sun. The combination of the garden and driveway makes this a particularly appealing property for those seeking private outdoor space and parking in this popular part of East London.
