If you lived here...

You'll be the proud owner of one of the most characterful properties we've seen in quite some time. The first of your many, many hosting spaces is your incredibly spacious front reception. Coming in at a truly capacious 280 square feet, with immaculately restored timber floorboards underfoot, a huge bay window and gorgeous stone and cast iron hearth and mantel, it's a unique space that will have guest's jaws hitting the floor.

Head towards the rear and you have a dedicated dining room (190 square feet), brimming with still more vintage style, featuring another ebony hearth and gorgeous overhead mouldings. An oversized triple set of wooden French patio doors throw the whole space open to your beautiful garden (of which more later). Next door you have your thirty two foot long kitchen/breakfast room, another artful blend of the rustic and contemporary. The bespoke fitted cabinets are handmade and pride of place is taken by a double width, stainless steel Rangemaster oven (there's a matching us-style fridge/freezer and dishwasher) plus timber countertops and a Dublin sink.

Step outside into your sixty foot rear garden and prepare to have your breath taken away all over again. Landscaped by Grand Designs award winner Jonathan Taylor, it's a beautifully tailored mix of slate, patio, immaculate lawn and thriving beds flanked by bespoke timber fencing. Step out onto the opening bed of slate you then head onto a lengthy patio, perfect for al fresco dining, before descending a set of slate steps down to the immaculate length of lawn, all overseen by mature greenery. It all makes for a wonderful, courtly space that truly comes alive after dark, when the expert lighting comes into effect.

Back inside and your master bedroom reflects the front lounge below – hugely capacious, brimming with vintage style and flooded with natural light thanks to the large bay window. Bedroom two is also extremely generous, with another hearth (you have four in total, all fully functional), while your remaining two bedrooms are both solid doubles with the same vintage finish. Finally, the family bathroom, that all important space to wash away the day. It is, as you'll by now expect, utterly immaculate with a beautiful, freestanding clawfoot tub next to the window, plantation shutters and classic fittings.

You're wonderfully located for the wild, wide open green space of Epping Forest. Just five minutes from your front door, it's perfect for morning jogs and evening strolls. Just a little further are the tranquil blue waters of Hollow Ponds (made famous by local boy Damon Albarn), where you can hire a row boat and explore, pursued by friendly ducks. Another famous son lends his name to the nearby Sir Alfred Hitchock Hotel – the bar here is the perfect place to watch the sun go down over the woods and water.

A word from the owner....

"We've loved living in the area for the last 5 years and made friends with all of our neighbours, some very close. Everyone keeps an eye on each other's houses, looks after keys, waters each other's gardens etc. There's a really nice feeling of community. We're in the quieter part of Leytonstone here, with mostly families in the area. We love taking walks at Hollow Ponds and Epping Forest at all times of year, as well as taking a stroll to Francis Road to enjoy the new restaurants, coffee shops and market on a Saturday. Even though we are in Zone 3 and close to central London it feels quiet and calm here, almost like being in the countryside."
