Flat to rent in Buckland Road, London E10

A gorgeous two bedroom garden apartment, tucked away just off High Road Leyton. On the ground floor of a Victorian terrace conversion, everything's delightfully refurbished for easy modern living, without losing its classic London character.

This home has been thoughtfully extended and finished to perfection throughout, with expert design choices clear to see everywhere you look. There're also a few very pleasant surprises to be found as you head towards the haven of your private garden.

A few steps outside your front door and you're in the heart of Leyton, with everything you need close by. From handy transport links to grand green spaces, destination restaurants to independent boutiques, it's all here.

Your new home

You're greeted by a handsome Victorian brick frontage, set back from the road by a neat front yard. Once inside you'll find yourself in your reception. This gives you 165 square foot of space, all naturally lit by the large shuttered bay window to the front. Parquet style engineered hardwood underfoot is as easy to care for as it is attractive. A striking black fireplace and dado rails are fine reminders of the building's heritage.

Your cool hallway takes you straight into your primary bedroom on the left. With 110 square feet of space and a large bespoke wardrobe, it's the ideal size for a double. The walls are rich turquoise turning to white above the picture rail, and a window onto your internal lightwell courtyard preserves privacy without sacrificing natural light.

Keep going down the hall and you'll find invaluable storage space to the right, before reaching your bathroom to the left. You'll love this stylish yet cheerful space, with petrol blue walls making the bright white tiling stand out. Black taps and radiator make for a further pleasing contrast.

After that is bedroom two, this one with seventy five square foot of space. There's a window onto the same lightwell as your first bedroom, plus a smartly placed skylight. Soft carpet lies underfoot, and the walls are a soothing camel shade.

Lastly, your hallway brings you to your wonderful kitchen diner, a superb space that's a generous 200 foot square. You'll know what to expect by now in terms of the quality of the finish, but the dark blue units, hardwood worktops, ceramic sink and hexagonal tiled backsplashes still have plenty of wow factor. There are three skylights above, plus pendulum lighting over the breakfast bar.

Bifold doors throw even more natural light into the room, and take you seamlessly out into your garden, to genuinely bring the outside in. Fully fenced, you have twin stone patio spaces complemented by low maintenance lawn, all beautifully framed by borders bursting with greenery.

Your new neighbourhood

It's less than a fifteen minute walk to Leyton station, where you can jump on the Central Line and be at Liverpool Street in barely eleven minutes, giving you a City commute of well under half an hour door to door. It's just twenty minutes to Tottenham Court Road too.

You'll be spoilt for choice when it comes to places to eat and drink, with international restaurants, cosy cafes and lovingly refurbished East London pubs all a short stroll from your new home. Plus you're five minutes from the foodie paradise that is Francis Road.

As for green spaces, you've got the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park within a twenty minute walk, and the epic Hackney Marshes and Wanstead Flats are each just a mile and a half away. Or for a lunchtime breath of fresh air, Coronation Gardens is right around the corner.
