There’s not much more you could want from a family home. Space, location, potential to improve and add value. This home has 1,416 sqft of space internally and to to the rear, the sun-trap garden is low maintenance and provides an excellent outdoor space for entertaining. Location wise, it’s as convenient as it gets - you’re within walking distance to Leyton Underground Station and the effervescent settings of both Francis Road & High Road Leyton, each with their own collection of amenities.

Looking at the home from the road, it reads classically Victorian. London-Stock brickwork, a large bay window on the ground floor, attractive frontage. On the left side of the home, in front of the garage, you’ve got double gates which provide both entry and security for you to park your car. Behind the porch door, you’ve got a traditional Victorian wooden door, painted in white. The layout downstairs is as you’d expect. To the left, you’ve got the original double reception room which has now been partitioned into two separate rooms but can easily be converted back into its original layout. Moving further into the home, you’ve got a spacious dining room, complete with a nice bay window allowing natural light to flood the space. Connecting to the dining room is the kitchen, smartly designed with lots of countertop and storage space. You’ve got an extension on the ground floor which has resulted in a spacious shower room just off the kitchen.

Your rear garden is paved, incredibly low-maintenance and private. The garden is spacious and makes for a great hosting and entertaining space in the summer, whether you’ve got friends over for some drinks or an outdoor bbq! Before heading back into the home, you can access the garage from the garden, which is handy storage area.
Moving upstairs, the first floor is home to three bedrooms, all of which are complete with built-in wardrobes. This floor also has a windowed-bathroom too. There is extensive storage available in the loft which could also be converted into additional living space and accommodation subject to planning permission.
