Owners Comments... ‘We were sold the moment we walked in the door and saw the high ceilings, period features and feeling of space. It has been over ten years and we have enjoyed the quietness of the area, but also hosting several parties here! We enjoyed making this our warm cozy home in winter and in summer we utilised the large space outside having BBQs and summer drinks.

We have the best neighbours, looking out for each other and I will definitely still be catching up with them. We are located in the middle of Francis Road, offering several great options for coffee or lunch and Leytonstone High Street, again offering a fantastic option of restaurant, cafes and pubs.

From Leytonstone station it is just 20 minutes into central London and Stratford is a couple of stops away which is great for shopping and has great connections with the Jubilee and Elizabeth lines.

While it‘s time for the next chapter in our lives it is definitely bittersweet and I hope the new owners love their new home as much as we did‘.
