A gorgeous three double bedroom family Victorian terrace with vintage touches of the period, generous room sizes and stylish, modern kitchen and bathroom. Smart and colourful throughout, with plenty of natural light. Epping Forest, Francis Road and Leyton tube station are all within easy reach.
Tastefully renovated throughout, original timber floorboards flow underfoot, along with a diverse range of well selected colour palettes. With your loft space untouched, you have scope here to follow your neighbours' lead and add a whole new storey.
Set on a quiet road, the south end of Francis Road is just five minutes from your front door, meaning you could have the lovely Northcote Arms as your new local. You're especially well placed for transport, with Leyton and Leytonstone underground stations both just a half mile on foot.

YOUR NEW HOME
Your first reception totals over 150 square feet, a stately high-ceilinged space bathed in natural light, finished in sage green and cream, split by a dado rail, with timeless bistro shutters on the bay window and a strikingly immaculate black hearth taking centre stage.
Back out in the hall and you have a natural slate and cream colour palette, while reception two offers mid blue accents. There's another 110 square feet of social space in here, with more vintage timber floorboards flowing underfoot and a still more elaborate hearth and mantel.
Moving to the rear, your artfully extended kitchen is truly breathtaking. Twenty feet deep, flanks of cream and brass cabinets facing each other over blonde hardwood complete with underfloor heating.
Integrated appliances, stainless steel extractor, sleek dark worktops, metro tile splashbacks and a Belfast sink complete the effect, before we head through your substantial dining area, sat below pendulum lighting, into your garden.
Out here you have a gorgeous south facing suntrap, over thirty feet long and expertly landscaped, with pristine patio and thriving beds surrounding a substantial length of lawn. It's all sheltered by timber fencing and you have a huge handy storage shed at the end.
There's also a grape vine, and a sizeable side return too, nicely sheltered and another candidate for possible further development (STPP).
Upstairs now, where all three bedrooms are substantial doubles, ranging from 110 to 160 square feet. Each has its own charms, with colour schemes running from blush pink to burnt orange, soft carpets and more vintage features and classic character.
Finally, your family bathroom is all sleek lines and black and white contrast, white metro tiles and onyx fittings, vintage geometrics flow across the heated flooring and a striking rainfall shower embedded over the tub.
YOUR NEW NEIGHBOURHOOD
Equidistant between Leyton and Leytonstone stations as you are, you'll probably want to head west for Leyton tube, where Central Line trains will get you straight to Liverpool Street in nine minutes or Tottenham Court Road in twenty.
So counting the half mile stroll that's just a twenty minute door to door City commute. Enviable.
You also have Leyton Midland Road overground just ten minutes on foot, for the Gospel Oak to Barking Riverside line. Check out under the arches here for Gravity Well Taproom and Burnt Smokehouse.
For more eating and drinking options you have the Heathcote & Star just a few moments away, for regular live events and craft ales. A little further and Filly Brook is a unique cafe/bar with regular DJs and The Arch offers natural wines and craft beer in intimate surroundings.
And that's all before you take the five minute stroll in the opposite direction for Francis Road and its array of cafes, KERB market, delis and independent shops. Vinyl junkies can browse the racks at Dreamhouse Records.
Or if it's nature you're looking for, it's less than twenty minutes on foot to Epping Forest and Wanstead Flats. Some of the wildest, wide open natural spaces for miles around.
Finally, parents will be pleased to find more than twenty schools all within an easy walk, including primaries and secondaries, maintained and independents.
Three nearby primaries - Newport, Riverley and Willowbrook ñ all achieved 'Outstanding' ratings at their last Ofsted inspections.
