IF YOU LIVED HERE...

This attractive late Victorian Villa style house is in keeping with the local properties in this conservation area, which also include large and leafy front gardens and tree lined avenues giving an idyllic rural feel to the area, despite being tapped into the urban metropolis. Inside, as mentioned, you’ve got that bright and airy bay fronted lounge, a lovely spot to settle down with a cuppa at the end of the day. Also to the ground floor, you have an additional reception room opening out into that extended and gorgeous kitchen diner. You will love the wonderful sense of space this offers, with room for a large dining table in addition to the eat-in island / breakfast bar in the kitchen. The kitchen itself is brilliantly appointed, with fully integrated appliances and styled in a sleek off white colour palette. Doors from the kitchen open out into the garden, creating a seamless feel between the indoor and outdoor space. The garden is part paved and part lawned, with a large mature tree offering a serene and shady spot. You also have the benefit of a large shower room with WC on this floor, with a gorgeous waterfall shower. Upstairs in this handsome home, you’ve got two large double bedrooms and a smaller third room. As you find elsewhere in the home, you have some lovely original features up here including original fireplaces and picture rails. You will love the super stylish ensuite in the large front bedroom, with an opulent freestanding tub and stylish floor tiles.

WHAT ELSE?

- This area has a real family friendly appeal, and the excellent school options (including Salisbury and Avenue Primary and Wanstead High) in the area reflect that. The Holy Tree pub is a local favourite, offering a delicious food menu it also has a miniature railway running around the garden for kids and adults to enjoy!
- Spend a free weekend walking through Wanstead Flats to Winchelsea Rd to sample the best cuisine and locally brewed beers around, we recommend Pretty Decent Taproom, Wanstead Kitchen or Wild Goose bakery. Every Sunday Woodgrange Rd hosts a farmers market offering delicious local fayre and is a very popular way to ease into a sleepy Sunday.
- The newly opened Elizabeth Line, moments from your door, offers a fast and regular train service through the City, West End and even out to Heathrow - the whole of London is at your fingertips!
