Leyton Midland Road overground offers another travel option, just ten minutes on foot for the Gospel Oak to Barking Riverside line is your direct connection to the River Thames.
If you lived here...
Step inside and you have extra integrated storage in the skylit hallway is always a welcome addition to London apartment living. At the end of the hall you have your L-shaped, 180 square foot open plan kitchen and reception. Pale blonde hardwood runs underfoot throughout, and your kitchen's comprehensively decked out with seamless grey cabinetry top and bottom, and glossy quartz worktops in between.
Natural light floods the space courtesy of that private balcony. Step out here for quiet contemplation and rooftop views is the perfect spot for a morning coffee. Into your double bedroom now, plushly carpeted with a smart set of floor to ceiling integrated wardrobes. Next door your bathroom's a boutique beauty, tiled from top to toe and featuring a rainfall shower over the tub.
Outside and the glorious wide open greenery of Epping Forest is less than half a mile on foot, for jogs, strolls and picnics. Here's also where you'll find Hollow Ponds, made famous by local boy Damon Albarn and the perfect place to hire row boats and explore the waterways in the company of friendly ducks. Finally, round off your day with a visit to the bar at the Sir Alfred Hitchcock Hotel, the perfect spot to watch the sun go down over the trees. Be sure to also try out the Rear Window Restaurant, run by the team behind The Ivy.
What else?
- Leytonstone tube is a fifteen minute walk, for direct, regular and speedy connections to the City and West End via the Central line.
- You have secure on site bike storage, and cyclists can join a growing network of protected cycleways, starting on nearby Grove Green Road.

A word from the owner...
"I was drawn to the property because it is situated in a quiet street with a peaceful vibe. I found the property deceptively spacious, and well appointed, and I have enjoyed the calming views from the secluded balcony when having my morning coffee.
The flat is part of a very small development of only eight flats – and my neighbours are a great bunch of people!
What I have enjoyed most about living in Leytonstone, is the convenient location and excellent transport links. Leytonstone station is only an 8 minute walk and Leyton Midland station is a 10 minute walk, with both getting me into the City in 20 mins. I have found it to be a vibrant and diverse neighbourhood, surrounded by Epping Forest, popular with young professionals like me, and the pubs, cafes and restaurants are great!"
