Newly redecorated two-bed with garden and basement, minutes from Leyton Midland Road.
Large bay-windowed living room with period mouldings
A bright two-bedroom ground-floor period conversion, freshly redecorated and ready to move into. The living room’s large bay and original mouldings give genuine period character, while contemporary finishes throughout keep things low-maintenance. Natural light runs through the apartment from front to back, and the west-facing, mostly paved garden offers a private outdoor space for summer evenings.
Practical extras include a useful basement (approx. 120 sq ft) for storage or potential home working, double glazing and modern gas central heating. The flat sits in a very well connected spot: Leyton Midland Road overground is about five minutes away, Leytonstone tube is roughly a 15-minute walk, and Francis Road’s cafés and markets are within easy reach.
Important facts and considerations: the property is leasehold with approximately 108 years remaining, a service charge of £150 (below average) and £100 ground rent. EPC rating D. Crime in the immediate area is reported as above average, and the building is a solid-brick 1930s terrace with assumed lack of wall insulation. Although newly renovated internally, the basement would need work to create a habitable room and the overall property footprint is relatively small at about 581 sq ft.
This home suits a first-time buyer seeking a well-presented period flat with outside space and excellent transport links, or an investor looking for a tidy, lettable two-bed in a popular east-London pocket. Viewing will show how the original proportions combine with recent updates and the potential the basement presents.
