Moments from High Road Leyton, this wonderful two bedroom converted flat features a stylised design scheme that uses natural materials, tones, and textures to highlight its bright, well-proportioned rooms.
Outside, colonnaded bay windows with foliage capitals and a decorative arched entrance to the recessed front door complement a traditional Victorian brick frontage. But once you step into the hallway and come to the split-level landing, a chic aesthetic presides in the form of white painted floorboards, stripped wooden handrails, and copper light fittings.
In the bathroom to your left, a frosted awning window illuminates large white tiles offset by black grouting. The chrome heated towel rail echoes the taps and fixtures to a deep bath with glass-screened overhead shower, a pedestal basin, and a close-couple loo, with stripped wooden shelves and wall hooks attractive and practical touches.
Straight ahead in the kitchen, grey floor tiles subtly pair with the sherbet tones to the wall cabinetry, while lush green base cabinets and open wood shelving inject a natural flavour to the scheme. A stainless-steel sink and a gas hob with overhead extractor sit above a white worktop with tiled splashback, with a Zanussi oven and space for a fridge and laundry appliance beneath the counter. The kitchen also feels very bright and cheerful thanks to the large rear window and high ceiling.
From the upper landing, turn right to find a rear facing double bedroom with recessed shelving and a copper pendant light fitting. The living room lies at the front of the apartment, where a canted bay window bathes the high ceiling, white walls, and the beautiful exposed brick fireplace and stove in a warm glow. A second window overlooks the dining area, with a stylish mounted bulb and copper fittings completing the cosy effect.
Return to the landing, where lemon sherbet risers to the second staircase invite you up to the loft conversion. From a big picture window and three skylights offering fantastic city views to a soft cream carpet, wooden accents, and ample wardrobes and eaves storage, the top floor is an exclusive space that perfectly suits a principal bedroom.
In the neighbourhood
Millais Road sits in a convenient spot just minutes from the many shops, eateries and amenities of High Road Leyton, and just eight minutes’ walk from Leyton Underground, which runs Central line services into the City, the West End, Canary Wharf, and South Bank.
Located just one stop away in Stratford, you will find the Westfield shopping centre, as well as the UK’s newest cultural and education district situated within the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. This lively area has a stunning waterfront and is home to the renowned Sadler’s Wells theatre and the BBC. Additionally, universities ucl and ual’s London College of Fashion are soon to join, and the V&A gallery is due to open in 2025.
You can also reach Stratford by foot within around 20 minutes, with Hackney Marshes and the Lea Valley Hockey and Tennis Centre easily accessible. Jubilee Pond and Wanstead Flats lie just slightly further afield, forming the southernmost tip of Epping Forest.
Closer to home, you’ll find a couple of parks and recreation grounds, including the popular Langthorne Park, with a playground, tennis courts and café. Downsell Primary School (Ofsted rated ‘Good’) and N Family Club Nursery are just six minutes around the corner.
You’re spoilt for eating and drinking in the area, some local favourites include Deeney's Scottish street food café (renowned for its famous haggis toasties); Darkhorse restaurant bar at The Olympic Village; the many options for a drink at Hackney Wick, especially Crate; and ice cream from La Gelateria at Stratford East Village, whatever the weather.
To the east, High Road Leytonstone is just ten minutes’ walk and offers even more choices, with restaurants and shops including the ever-popular Thai restaurant Singburi, Mora Italian restaurant and Panda Dim Sum. Meanwhile, a swift 20-minute stroll will take you to the bustling Francis Road, with its fantastic collection of independent shops, relaxed cafés, delis and craft beer shops.
