3 Bedrooms Terraced house for sale in Selby Road, Leytonstone, London E11 | £ 550,000

Property Description

Estate agents often talk about retaining period features whilst bringing properties up to date, but rarely have we seen a house where it has been done so well. The current owner has (quite literally) stripped back this house to reveal the beauty of its original construction, and in the process made those original features the real stars of the show. The stained glass above the front door, the now exposed yellow London brick work in the hall and dining room, the exquisite tiled hallway, the floorboards, the plinths for the fireplaces – the list goes on and on. All speak of and to the history of this house and the skills of those who built it, and they now form the wonderful backdrop to this fantastic home. On the ground floor there is a bay fronted lounge, dining room, galley style kitchen (offering access to the private rear garden), family bathroom and WC. Ascend to the first floor and you will find three double bedrooms, each as beautifully presented as the rooms on the ground floor, and with more of those fantastic period features throughout. This is a fantastic house, turned into a truly amazing home by the current owner, and one where you really will feel that every day you’re adding your own little piece of history to the story of this property…

Living Here...

Both Leytonstone and Maryland stations are within walking distance, meaning the delights of Westfield and the Olympic Park are within easy reach. And you definitely won't be lost for places to take friends, with days (and evenings) out in and around E10 (check out the Northcote, where they have an amazing pizzeria in the garden!) and E11 (the Sunday roast at The Red Lion is a personal favourite). For those who are more active Leytonstone Leisure Centre (swimming pool and gym) is less than a 10 minute walk away along Cathall Road. Over the summer, Epping Forest and Wanstead Flats offer the perfect spots for a relaxing stroll (with or without canine companion), picnic or messing about in a boat (on Hollow Ponds). Something for everyone then…

In This Area...

Leytonstone, or Leyton-St-One as my friend calls it when she’s trying to sound posh, is the birth place and former home of Alfred Hitchcock. It gets its name, or the stone bit at least, from the Highstone mile marker which stands on Hollybush Hill. Bordering Walthamstow, Wanstead, Epping Forest, Leyton and Stratford, Leytonstone has a lot going on. If you are a fan of Thai food, wander down the High Road to Singburi - the Pad Talay is all kinds of amazing. The Northcote Arms, which is technically in Leyton, is a great pub with a real community feel, or on the High Road there’s The Birds (spot the Hitchcock link?) or The North Star, tucked away in Bushwood. And If you want amazing views of the City, go on a tower tour at St John the Baptist Church. The tours don’t run all year around, so you’d need to keep an eye on their website for dates, but it’s well worth doing. The views are simply spectacular, especially at sunset with the lights of the City set against the darkening sky.
