This beautifully presented one bedroom apartment is finished to a wonderfully high standard. Leytonstone Underground Station and Leyton Midland Road overground station are both just a short walk away, and the property has easy access to great outdoor spaces such as Wanstead Flats, and Hollow Pond. This area is diverse and has a great sense of community.
You enter the property through a small lobby area which provides access to every room of this lovely apartment. If you take a left, we'll start in the magnificent kitchen/living room. You're immediately struck by the height of the ceilings giving a huge sense of space and light, a real show-stopper of a sunny statement! The huge bay windows at the end of the property are a real feature bathing the space in glorious rays, and you'll see the chimney breast feature with a beautiful fireplace along with recessed alcoves with fitted cupboards and shelving to the right. There's room for a large comfy sofa, coffee table and additional units and the dazzling white decor is set-off by the stylish charcoal flooring, making for a sleek and contemporary feel.
The small kitchen is at the opposite end of the gorgeous living space: an open plan affair which has been carefully designed to ensure you have everything you need. There's plenty of storage space thanks to a selection of both base and wall units in a light oak finish, plus a fitted oven with gas hob and hood. There's a degree of separation from the rest of the room with a breakfast bar stretching across to create a divide – perfect for your morning coffee or a place where your guests can enjoy a nice glass of wine or chilled beer while you cook up something tasty. The current occupier had plans to refit the kitchen but it is by no means required, although if you wanted to make your mark on the property, there's plenty of scope to re-create this space.
Back through to the lobby and straight ahead you'll find the newly fitted, high spec bathroom, finished to a very high standard. A modern and sophisticated all-white suite consisting of end-fill bath with overhead shower, wide oval shaped sink unit with built in cupboard below, and a square shaped toilet, it's extremely stylish. It's fully tiled, floor to ceiling, with dark floor tiling giving the room a modern pop. There's plenty of room for added storage space should you so desire but as it is, it's a perfect spa like atmosphere to enjoy a long soak and a good book after a long day.
The next and final door from the lobby is the bedroom; another room benefitting from the high ceilings and a large window to provide plenty of light. The high ceilings have been cleverly utilised with a bespoke fitted wardrobe which provides plenty of storage. The room would easily take a large double bed with units either side, along with a dressing table, chair or drawer units... plus some shelving to display your personal trinkets and treasures. Like the rest of the apartment, it's decorated in a way that would be easy to put your stamp on it without too much effort; it's light and neutral throughout but well dressed, and the amount of light is perfect for plant lovers.
The property has highly rated pubs such as Heathcote & Star within walking distance, a local fish and chip shop plus a range of stores nearby such as a large Tesco supermarket. It has access to wonderful outdoor spaces such as the aforementioned Wanstead Flats, Hollow Pond, and Epping Forest, and your commute is made easy with a short walk to the nearby stations. You have all amenities on hand, such as doctor's surgeries, dentists, pharmacies and a variety of independent and high street shops. It's hard to imagine this property being on the market for long, it's well kept, well finished and well lit while also offering potential for change.
Sellers comments….
'I purchased the flat 6 years and have greatly enjoyed living in the property, and the local area which has easy access to great outdoor spaces such as Wanstead Flats, Hollow Ponds and Epping Forest.
The property has high ceilings, given it a light airy feel, especially in the mornings. A large bespoke wardrobe has been fitted in the bedroom to take advantage of the extra height and provided plenty of storage. The bathroom was replaced last year by a reputable builder and finished to a high standard. Additionally, the windows of the property have all been replaced.
Bulwer Road is a very wide, quiet and leafy, and I like how the property is set far back from the roadside. There are many good pubs nearby, especially the Heathcote & star and the filly Brook, which ware both 5 mins walk. There is generally a nice vibe around the area and the neighbours are friendly and helpful.
The transport links are excellent with Leytonstone tube station very close (approx. 8 mins walk) as well as Leyton midland for the overland.
I have invested in the flat and made some significant improvements. After the pandemic caused delays to further renovations (such as the kitchen) together with my job changing I am now looking to raise funds to buy a slightly bigger property.'
