2 Bedroom Flat for sale in London

1 2 1

Guide Price £490,000-£510,000. Beautifully presented two bedroom flat for sale in Leytonstone, overlooking Bushwood forest. With a share of the freehold and a selection of stunning features, this property is close to all local amenities and offers two double bedrooms, well-designed kitchen and bathroom, plus full ownership of the loft space.The loft is an excellent size and offers great potential for a loft conversion subject to necessary planning permissions.
Occupying the full first floor of a traditional style Victorian villa, you’ll first note the quiet residential street, views to the adjacent forest and the large front garden offering peace and privacy. Established trees offer further separation from the street and the smart black painted front door set within a porch offers an attractive welcome into the property itself.
As you enter the main door, the flat itself is accessed via the door straight ahead, which leads to a set of private interior stairs and space for your coats and shoes. As you reach the top, standing in the hallway, the first room to your left is bedroom two – a great size space with room for a double bed, and some very handy built-in furniture ready for you. This well thought-out space has its own bespoke bookcase and shelving unit, starting over the door frame and wrapping around the wall all the way to the window; an easy place to start your unpacking, with room for additional furniture items to suit your needs as you settle in. This room would make a great children’s or guest room, or you could configure it into a lovely home office space, hobby room or study.
Heading back out to the hallway and immediately to your left is the lounge, occupying the full width of the property and overlooking the quiet tree-lined street and Bushwood forest outside. With its dual aspect windows, neutral decor and rich, wooden flooring, this room makes a real statement and has a feeling of genuine grandeur and charm. The bay window offers a lovely spot for a reading nook or cosy sofa, with room still for a good sized dining table and additional seating too. The original fireplace has been replaced with a working modern fireplace with firewood feature, with recesses either side to house your TV, bookcases, display units or whatever you desire for your chosen orientation. The wooden window frames are contrasted by the sophisticated white shutters and the footprint of the room could easily carry powerful art pieces, bold colour accents and even separately zoned living/eating/entertaining areas if you wish.
Back to the hallway now and as you walk past bedroom two towards the kitchen on your right, you’ll quickly be struck by the gorgeous stained-glass window light in the ceiling above, decorated wuth original coving. This lovely feature brings in lots of natural light and acts as an eye-catching centrepiece, highlighting the light decor with dark wood accents here. The curved wall joining the kitchen is a delightful design touch.
Enter the smart, stylish kitchen now, which was fully refurbished six years ago and designed for both aesthetics and practicality. A range of white base and wall units with white subway tiling is warmed with traditional wooden work surfaces, plus wooden shelving and shuttered doors to the useful pantry. Other features include a charming butler sink, integrated dishwasher and fridge freezer, plus Neff oven, Smeg gas hob and washing machine – all remaining, so you’re ready to go. There’s also a recently installed Valiant boiler tucked away to provide your hot water and central heating.
Your next door along to the right is the bathroom, refurbished just three years ago. Fully tiled in white and with a matching white suite, the black hexagonal flooring and bath panel - along with the dark wood shelving accents and under-sink unit - add some depth of character into this light and airy space. As an added bonus, the bathroom also has integrated under floor heating for those colder months and offers access to the loft space which is for exclusive use of the property owner.
Finally we come to the main bedroom situated at the back of the property, offering a tranquil space away from the main living areas. Another great sized room, the oval bay window is a real focal-point, setting the scene for the era-appropriate decoration here. Sage green walls are complemented by the wooden window frames and light grey carpet, with neutral paintwork and a three-door fitted mirrored wardrobe finishing the look. You can easily add to the storage space with some chunky drawer units and a dressing table – whatever you need to make life in your beautiful new home easier.
The ever popular Bushwood area of Leytonstone has a quiet community feel but is blessed with excellent amenities on the doorstep. The property is on a quiet residential street facing out towards the natural glory of Bushwood forest – but it also offers easy access to all the services offered by Leytonstone High Road and surrounding areas. Whether you’re looking for bars, restaurants, shops or supermarkets, you’ll be spoilt for choice; check out some of the locals’ favourites such as The North Star pub, Leytonstone Tavern and Homies on Donkies restaurant.
The area is well served by public transport too, with Leytonstone High Road overground station less than a fifteen minute walk away and Leytonstone Central Line underground around ten minutes. The nearest bus stop is less than a five minute walk and there’s easy access to the A12 which will get you to the North Circular and M11 in just a few minutes. There are good schools close by, including the Davies Lane Primary school and the popular Buxton School which caters for ages from nursery through to secondary.
In addition to the forest opposite, opportunities for fresh air abound in Bushwood, with the Wanstead Flats, Hackney Marshes, Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park and Walthamstow Wetlands nature reserve all within easy reach.
