"Since living here periodically with my parents since 1972 we have made this a welcoming and cosy home for friends and family. Leytonstone is a great central place to be! We shall miss this wonderful house and home with all its amazing memories!"

IF YOU LIVED HERE...

You'll be luxuriating in a home with heritage, the blue plaque above your front door paying homage to a former occupant, one renowned Canadian-born jazz aficionado Kenny Wheeler who could often be found playing in the London jazz scene with Ronnie Scott. Here, you've not just got a wealth of history but also plenty of sociable space in which to relax and entertain. Your first reception comes in at a generous 150 square feet with a beautiful bow window dressed in elegant plantation shutters to the fore and handsome herringbone timber floorboards running underfoot. Next door your second immaculate hosting area is similarly attired and home to a vintage fireplace. Continue under the arch through this artfully segmented space for an exquisite dining area and views over the garden.

Step through the pretty paned glass French door here for your lengthy south-facing rear garden - a length of lush lawn flanked by lovingly-tended beds and book-ended by patios positively perfect for entertaining al fresco, with a handy outhouse at the rear. Back inside and the ground floor's completed by an impeccable kitchen dressed in a charming white suite, matching tiled backsplash and full complement of integrated appliances. Head up the staircase to the first floor for two substantial double bedrooms, the master coming in at a huge 200 square feet with another gorgeous bow window filing the room with swathes of natural light, plush carpet underfoot and a wealth of fitted storage. Lastly, your bathroom's home to a double length walk-in shower cubicle and vintage fixtures and fittings in keeping with this prestigious property.

Heading to the West End? Tottenham Court Road is just twenty three minutes direct, while Stratford – for the shopping mecca that is Westfield Stratford City – is a mere five minutes away. Stroll in the other direction for the Heathcote & Star pub; a traditional local with a beer garden just twelve minutes' walk. Continue on to burgeoning social hub Francis Road and its huge array of independent shops, cafes and gourmet pubs. Here there's something to suit every taste and palate.
