Horn Lane Woodford Green , IG8 9AH

IF YOU LIVED HERE

You'll step through your ornate front door, with gorgeously ornate stained glass in the centre and glazed surround, and luxuriate in the generous proportions, high ceilings, ornate mouldings and vintage features of the original architecture. Your open plan ground floor is endlessly explorable, thirty five foot deep with clear sight-lines from front to back thanks to a pair of double internal doors throwing the front lounge open to the extended, skylit kitchen/diner.

Vintage features abound, from the large box bay window at the front, twin imposing hearths to the cornicing and ceiling roses high overhead. Blonde hardwood flows underfoot, giving way to large format smoky cream tiling in the kitchen and dining area, where bi-folding patio doors and a trio of skylights bathe the space in light. A handy breakfast bar separates the kitchen proper, where you'll find cream cabinets, timber worktops and a metro tile splash-back.

Step out the bi-folding doors into your garden for a pristine patio giving way to an immaculate length of Trulawn, flanked by screening greenery and ending in a handy shed and a gate opening onto Trevor Road. Back inside, and a smart, chic, spare WC completes your ground floor. Upstairs your principal bedroom comes in at 165 square feet, awash with natural light from another box bay window.

Both remaining first floor bedrooms are bright, decent doubles finished in characterful style, while your family bathroom is a real showstopper. In here pebble-effect tiling runs underfoot, and a free standing ceramic tub sits below an integrated rainfall shower. Tiled from floor to ceiling in distressed slate, it's a superb solace for either end of the day. Finally, head up the skylit stairway for your substantial loft suite. Here a sizeable, dual aspect sleeper sits below a large skylight, with a full en suite bathroom, handy utility space and under eaves storage.
