1 bedroom apartment

Spacious, purpose-built ground floor flat in a small well-maintained development, offered chain-free. The clever layout includes a hallway, a generous living/dining room, a separate modern kitchen, a bathroom and a large double bedroom with built-in wardrobes. Leytonstone offers exceptional local amenities and transport links.

Brockway Close is accessed from Leytonstone High Road which offers an exceptional array of amenities, but the development itself offers a surprising oasis of calm away from the vibrant surrounding area – providing you with the best of both worlds. As you approach the property, you’ll notice the generous lawned areas, mature shrubs and trees throughout the development, which offer a pleasant welcome and sense of space. There are also several, extensive residents’ only parking areas within the development – a real luxury in this area of London.

The property is accessed via a shared hallway, which has a secure entry phone system controlled from within the flat. As you enter the flat, you’ll find yourself in your own private hallway which benefits from natural light provided by the glazed door from the reception room. Decoration is simple with white walls and a light toned wood-effect laminate floor.

The first door to the right leads you into your bright and airy bedroom. The room is equipped with a large run of built-in wardrobes across one full wall, which not only provides a huge amount of storage, but their mirrored finish also enhances the sense of space and light in the room, helping to reflect the rays entering through the large window to really brighten up this room. The room’s footprint will happily accommodate for a comfy double bed and additional storage furniture to suit your individual needs. Once again decoration is simple, with white walls and a modern grey carpet, all of which could easily be enhanced with a colourful rug and some stylish art work, making this a wonderful, peaceful retreat that could quickly be personalised to suit your tastes.

Back into the hallway and the next room we’ll explore is the spacious bathroom, with its white three piece suite comprising WC, large pedestal basin and full size bathtub – this also houses an electric shower above and a full length shower curtain. There are modern white tiles to ceiling height around the bath and a generous, matching splashback for the handbasin. The rest of the walls are painted in a soft cream and there’s a beech-effect timber laminate floor.

The final door from the hallway takes you into the spacious reception room. This great sized space offers room for a dining table large enough for feeding or entertaining friends and family, as well as a large sofa, an entertainment unit and bookshelves. The room’s character is enhanced by the attractive addition of a small bay window, which would be the ideal location for a statement piece of furniture. In fact, this would make a wonderful reading nook with a comfy armchair and side table, with the added bonus of being the perfect spot for watching the world go by while you relax after a hard day at work. Decoration currently follows the theme of the rest of the property, being simple with white painted walls and a warm-toned fawn coloured carpet. The generous wall and floor space offer plentiful scope to add your own style here – perhaps some large, elegant rugs to differentiate the living and dining spaces, and an opportunity to create your own extensive gallery of your favourite art pieces or photos.

Next, the well-designed, separate modern kitchen which is accessed from the reception room and benefits from additional built-in cupboards – an unusual and useful feature in this type of property. The large window offers plenty of natural light, enhanced by warm cream walls and a light timber laminate floor. There are base and wall cabinets in beech-effect laminate with charcoal-gray granite-effect work surfaces. A stainless steel sink with chrome mixer tap is complemented by stylish satin chrome cabinet and drawer handles. There’s an under counter plumbed-in washing machine, a large fridge freezer and space for a free-standing cooker.

Leytonstone is a lively community with every amenity imaginable on your doorstep. The area is well served by public transport, with bus, underground (Leytonstone – Central line) and overground services (Leytonstone High Road) all accessible within a few minutes’ walk. There are good schools close by, including the popular Buxton School which caters for ages from nursery through to secondary. Leytonstone High Road, with its many shops, hospitality businesses and other amenities, is also on the doorstep. There are also many well-loved options close by such as the Unity Café, Heathcote and Star pub and the Titanic Kitchen and Lounge. Leytonstone Leisure Centre, with its gym, swimming pool and fitness classes is just a leisurely ten minute walk. The Leyton Mills Retail Park is just a few minutes away, with a large supermarket and other retail outlets and the exceptional Westfield Centre with its huge array of retail and leisure facilities is easily accessible, with the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park just beyond. Hackney Marshes, Wanstead Flats and Walthamstow Wetlands nature reserve are also within easy reach.
