We are currently in South Woodford and need to buy a bigger house. Everything is ridiculously expensive and often ugly. We are also constricted by needing to be near a school.
Have looked at several areas including Leytonstone. Is it nice?
The roads around 'upper' Leytonstone seem a lot nicer than the leyton end. Although the few trendy cafes that have opened are actually in the bit I felt was a bit grim (Francis road and surrounds). However local school is outstanding. Then there's the other side which is Bushwood which also seems nice.
Leyton just seems hideous.
I really don't know the area well so any perspectives would be great.

Is Leytonstone the new 'up and coming' area of London?
