This bright two-bedroom first-floor Victorian conversion offers over 600 sq ft of ready-to-live-in space with period character and modern finishes. Recently redecorated with engineered hardwood floors, a contemporary kitchen and boutique bathroom, the flat feels fresh and move-in ready while retaining original features and high ceilings.
Practical benefits include a long 999-year lease held as a share of freehold, excellent transport links (five minutes to Leyton Central Line, 15 minutes to Stratford) and easy access to shops, cafés and Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. The loft presents genuine potential to extend and add bedrooms/bathroom subject to planning (STPP), offering scope to increase value for owner-occupiers or investors.
Be clear about the limits: the property is relatively small and has a single bathroom, so it best suits couples, first-time buyers or small families rather than larger households. The building’s solid-brick construction likely has limited wall insulation (assumed), which could affect heating costs despite mains gas central heating and double glazing.
Overall this is a characterful, well-presented flat in a sought-after, well-connected pocket of Leytonstone. Its combination of period charm, transport convenience and loft development potential will particularly appeal to first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors looking for a practical central London home with upside.
