When Bellway Homes completed the development, known as The Exchange, in 2015, they brought a far superior level of specification and design to Leytonstone with larger room sizes and slick contemporary detailing that was a marked upgrade in lifestyle. The apartments here are still at the top of the tree in the neighbourhood.

Every fixture and fitting has a premium feel and includes a fully fitted modern kitchen that sits tidily at one end the main living space and includes plenty of units, prep surface, a full height retractable larder cupboard, and a collection of integrated appliances including AEG halogen hob, concealed extractor hood and fan assisted oven and a Zanussi tall fridge freezer.

The bathrooms with luxury hotel styling include large format wall tiles, huge wall mirrors and ultra modern fittings including thermostatically controlled showers, sleek glass screens, contemporary white suites and brushed steel accessories.

With its sleek glass balustrade and timber decking, the balcony comfortably takes a table, chairs and plenty of friends for a proper al fresco addition to the space inside, effectively adding an extra room in the summer months. Even the hallway is worth talking about, wide enough for a bench no more balancing on one leg while trying to put your shoes on and with a large built in cupboard with space for a washing machine.

The specification includes smart wood strip flooring in oak to the main living areas, modern recessed downlighting throughout, built in mirror fronted wardrobes to the primary bedroom, gas fired central heating, aluminium powder coated double glazed windows and a video entry system.

Within walking distance, Walthamstow Village is around 30 minutes away. In the other direction youll find Henry Reynold Gardens and Wanstead Park a wild oasis for seasonal adventures in a busy city. Also, nearby theres the Olympic Park and its wonderful swimming pool. Hackney Marshes, Lea Valley horse riding and ice skating are all within easy reach via quiet cycle routes.

Leytonstone tube is an 18 minute walk, from where the Central Line whizzes into the City and West End, with a quick change at Stratford to the Jubilee line for Canary Wharf, the South Bank and Westminster. The station sits on the merging point of the Central line loop, which means there‘s always lots of trains, and you‘ll be the first to hop on during the morning rush hour. Leyton Midland Road Overground, which will take you to Kings Cross and St Pancras in 25 minutes, is less than 5 minutes by foot.
