Guide Price £415,000 - £435,000. This beautifully bright, split level three bedroom flat for sale in Leytonstone is usefully located near the popular Francis Road area and an easy walk to Leytonstone Overground and Leyton Underground stations. In addition to the fantastic potential this property offers, it's also vacant and chain-free, assisting a faster purchase process.
This fabulous flat is situated on the first floor – simply enter the wrought-iron fenced area separating the building from the pavement, head up the external stairs, and the entrance to the flat leads directly into your spacious kitchen via a secure, gated front door.
Not only is this kitchen a very generous size but it also benefits from a fantastically functional layout too – offering a wide range of both base and wall-mounted units and plenty of workspace. The white units are overlaid with contrasting black countertops and the light décor is smartly set-off by the black tiled splashback surrounds, which are as stylish as they are practical. The kitchen comes complete with fridge freezer, integral oven, hob and cooker hood.
As you exit the kitchen to explore the rest of the flat, you'll see the small flight of steps up to the hallway, and to your right, one small step leading into the good-sized family bathroom. Neutrally but tastefully furnished and finished, it's a lovely, light and airy space to relax and unwind in the bath after a busy day. For a quick freshen up, there's also a roomy separate shower unit along with the usual (and essential!) WC and sink. The heated towel rail is a handy addition, as is the built-in shelving ledge at the end of the bath – ideal for all your toiletries.
Heading out of the bathroom and up the small flight of steps, follow the substantially sized hallway towards the first of your three bedrooms – this area is so light and bright for an internal hall that it almost has the feel of a lavish Spanish villa, a vibe helped along by the cool stone flooring.
As you enter this lower-floor bedroom it's easy to imagine what you could do with this brilliant blank canvas – and with its location between the reception room and kitchen, you could even re-purpose it for use as a large dining room, or perhaps even a playroom, media room or office. Bright and airy like the rest of the property, it offers total versatility which is such a bonus when claiming your new space.
Back into the hallway and following it down to the end of the property, you'll note the staircase to your left and the incredibly well-lit reception/living room ahead. With four (yes, you read that right) windows across two aspects, it's such a beautiful space, simply bathed in natural light and with a large enough footprint to accommodate a sprawling sofa, comfy chairs, your entertainment and display units and even a small dining table. Just move in and make your mark!
The stairs up to the second floor of this sizeable flat turn at a mid-level landing complete with window, and lead to the other two bedrooms off the top landing. To the right is the smaller of these two rooms, but don't let that fool you – it's still roomy enough for a double bed and all your furniture. Also, as with the rest of the bare floors throughout the main rooms in the property, if you wanted to forgo a carpet, you could sand and stain the floorboards for a smart, classic and cosy feel to balance out the bright and airy atmosphere.
The final and largest of the three bedrooms in this flat can be found right next door, and mirroring the layout of the reception room below, it also benefits from four windows – one to the side aspect and three to the rear. The slightly angled ceiling creates a lovely framing effect around this trio, giving this room an extra touch of character.
What this flat boasts in light and space on the inside is easily matched in terms of its location – with its close proximity to the up and coming Francis Road area, you're just a few moments away from all the shops, facilities and amenities you could wish for. Check out one of the area's best-loved pubs, the Heathcoate & Star or grab a coffee from the Unity Café – both of which lie within an easy stroll.
This flat is also close to some great local schools, including Newport Primary School, Connaught School for Girls and Norlington School and Sixth Form, and is ideal for commuters with both overground and underground stations in walking distance, plus a range of local bus routes.
Leytonstone High Road is also almost on your doorstep, a local leisure centre is nearby and you have a choice of wonderful natural spaces to explore in the area, such as Hackney Marshes and Wanstead Flats.
