Spacious and beautifully presented three-bedroom cottage for sale in Leytonstone, with a large south-facing garden, a fantastic location in the conservation area and close to all local amenities, it’s the perfect family home, and great potential for redevelopment.


Situated on a street with resident-only parking, the smart façade and cheerful blue front door welcome you into the entrance hall. Decorated in a grey and white palette, with grey multi-tone flooring, the initial impression is modern, fresh and cosy. The hallway also features a good-sized storage cupboard, and the contemporary flooring runs through into the reception and dining rooms.


The lovely open-plan reception and dining area benefits from lots of natural light, thanks to a large window at the front overlooking the street and French doors to the rear, opening out into the garden. There’s plenty of space for a large sofa or suite, entertainment unit and storage or display furniture, with the dining area easily accommodating a family-sized table. This is a fluid and flexible space, with the potential to be purposed and zoned according to your needs.


Heading into the galley-style kitchen, there is a vast range of beech base and wall cabinets and sprawling grey granite-style worktops. Vibrant red-tiled splash-backs and black and white checkerboard floor complete the look, and the kitchen is fitted with an integrated oven, hob and extractor. Beyond the kitchen is a small utility room, plus a full family bathroom fitted with WC, sink, and bath with a shower above and a glazed screen. Décor is white tile and fittings, with checkerboard flooring.


The garden itself is a real bonus, measuring in at over 27ft and facing south for those long summer days. A paved patio area and side-return provide space for outdoor furniture, and the long lawn area is easy to maintain – or could be re-designed to your vision. A shed sits at the very end of the garden, and privacy is provided by high grey/blue fencing to all three sides.


Heading up the carpeted stairs, the split-level landing offers space for a chair or perhaps a bookcase, and leads to all three bedrooms. Bedroom one, to the front aspect, features dual windows and a full wall of built-in wardrobes with storage above. Grey carpets and warm yet neutral décor finish this welcoming adult space, and there’s room for a comfy bed and additional furnishings.


Bedroom two is another good-sized double with similar carpeting and colour palette to the main bedroom. To the rear of the property lies bedroom three – suitable for a double bed, office space or a nursery – with neutral fawn walls and a beautiful wooden floor.


Leytonstone is a popular and vibrant area of London with a fantastic selection of bars, cafes, pubs and restaurants all within walking distance. The Sir Alfred Hitchcock Hotel opposite Hollow Ponds is a popular destination with delicious food, and the Out of the Woods cafe are only a short walk away. Plus, you are well located for Hollow Ponds as well convenient access to a range of supermarkets, home-ware stores, GP surgeries and all the amenities you could need. The area is serviced by several reliable bus routes as well as Leytonstone Underground Station, and there are some great schools in the vicinity, too.

Live-in local estate agents in Leytonstone and E11 As a husband and wife team with over 50 years’ collective experience in property sales and lettings, we’ve been your local estate agents since the late nineties. In 2021, during the height of the Coronavirus pandemic and its many challenges, we decided to give our team a boost, a bright new future, something to look forward to... and it was also about time Trading Places got a fresh look too, one to reflect the wonderful and vibrant local community we love so much. Over the past two decades we’ve grown and evolved as people and as a business and watched the fantastic neighbourhood we live and work in do the same. So, while our core values and exceptional service standards will never change, we really hope you like our brand new look. We’re able to combine our passion for property and our deep affection for the area to help people find their next happy home. And with a fantastic mix of distinctive Edwardian and Victorian properties, charming cottages full of character, snug terraced houses and smart, modern flats, this beautiful London suburb really does have something for everyone – you just need the right support to help you find it! Whether you’re looking for a quiet and cosy home to really settle in, or a vibrant pad in the heart of the ‘hubub’, our local estate agents know every part of Leytonstone and the surrounding hidden gems of East London... and we promise that we’ll always offer you 100% honest advice. Family Run and Community-Centric There are lots of estate agents to choose from, so how do you decide which one to trust with your property sale, letting or your search for a new home. We both hail from several generations of east-enders, went to school in London E11, and Jen was born in Whipps Cross hospital – so we have deep roots in the local area. Our supporting team (who are family and friends, not just colleagues and staff) are also locally connected, giving us the unique ability to provide a level of customer service and local knowledge quite unlike any other. We feel genuinely privileged to live, work and play in Leytonstone, and our work has allowed us to explore many beautiful period houses with their stunning architecture and features, alongside more contemporary properties and developments that have sprung up over the years. Having rented and bought our own first properties here, we’ve grown along with the area, playing an active role in the community for two decades and getting to know the best places to eat, drink, shop, walk, learn, socialise, exercise and relax. We currently live near Hollow Ponds, part of Epping Forest, and highly recommend a stroll around the lake or an hour boating in the warmer weather! The real difference at Trading Places is that once our working day is done, we don’t head home to another community – because our home is where our heart is and we wouldn’t want to be anywhere else. Experienced, accredited and award winning While we focus very much on a friendly and people-first approach, we take our responsibilities as estate and letting agents very seriously. During our time here, we’ve helped thousands of satisfied clients move home, waving off those who leave for pastures new, while welcoming others into our wonderful community – we’ve even sold many homes several times over, seeing them change through the years. We’re also accredited and registered: The Guild’s member for E11 The Property Ombudsman Propertymark ARLA Propertymark NAEA Safeagent And have won multiple awards too: The Best Estate Agents Guide AllAgents The British Property Awards Three Best Rated Agent Agent Tracker (no longer operating) We think all good relationships start with a friendly chat, so why not get in touch and let us know what you’re looking for – we’re completely confident that our local estate agents can help.
