Lambourne Gardens Chingford , E4 7SG

IF YOU LIVED HERE…

Beyond that charming private driveway, you’ll find a wonderfully proportioned home where every inch has been considered for the optimum layout (something we’ll always appreciate in 1930s design).

You’ll be wowed by the grand scale of the open plan living, but you’ll also appreciate the fact that both your reception rooms (yes that’s right - plural) can be transformed into cosy retreats (the rear reception benefits from striking partition doors). While each of these spaces are unique, you’ll find immaculate decor in both, as well as lovely features such as the fireplace alcoves and column radiators.

Your dine-in kitchen is bursting with light thanks to the generous bi-fold conservatory doors and sky lights, ensuring that the thoughtful design is showcased in all its glory. With so many fantastic features - from the industrial-style double oven to the mosaic tiles, it’ll be hard to pick your favourite.

As well as a study area to the rear, you’ve also got a rustic-style conservatory, which opens up the entire space further, and during warmer months you’ll love being able to spill out into the spacious rear garden. Don’t forget that you also have a convenient garden studio, which could be used as anything from a home gym to office space - the choice is endless.

Upstairs, you’ve got three bedrooms, each with stylish decor, and one even has its dressing room (the ultimate luxury). There’s a stunning family bathroom with a free-standing tub, walk-in shower, double basins and designer fittings throughout.

Drivers will be delighted with the private driveway, but it’s incredibly easy to get around the area on foot. You can be at the cusp of Epping Forest within around 15 minutes, and Chingford station is 1.5 miles away. From there you can nip to Liverpool Street on the overground in around 30 minutes, or change three stops down the line at Walthamstow for the speedy Victoria line. Walthamstow and Highams Park are both easily accessible by bus, too.

If you stick around, you’ll find some excellent amenities nearby though. Make one of your first stops the Rusty Bike pub for delicious Thai food, and definitely try out the delicious (and healthy!) food on offer at the London Feel Good Hub, right by the station so perfect for a bit of a top-up before your commute.

WHAT ELSE?
- Parents will be pleased to know that there are plenty of 'Good' or 'Outstanding' primary and secondary schools in the area.
- You’re just a couple of minutes on foot from Mansfield Park, which is fantastic open space enjoyed by everyone from joggers to dog-walkers and families. Just as near, you’ll find Ridgeway Park, home to the Chingford & District Model Engineering Club, where members of the public can ride on the model railway on Sundays.
- As well as having the sprawling Epping Forest on your doorstep, you’ve also got some incredible outdoor pursuits around the River Lee’s reservoirs, including Lee Valley Athletics, Lee Valley Golf Course and the London Watersport Company.
