Thorpe Road Forest Gate , E7 9EA

IF YOU LIVED HERE...

The well maintained front garden, chequerboard path and beautiful stained glass panels in your front door immediately set your home apart. Inside, a custom made floor to ceiling shoe rack awaits in the hallway, before you arrive in the vast, 300 square foot reception room that's full of Wainscot panelling, ceiling roses and cleverly concealed stairwell storage units (you have ample extra storage throughout). There's a bright bay window to the front, stripped original floorboards underfoot and rear double doors open into your 235 square foot kitchen diner. In here, an exposed brick wall faces navy blue cabinets, home to a sleek dual chef's oven with an ebony gas hob and extractor hood, premium integrated appliances from Siemens, Bosch and Neff, chunky wooden countertops, diverse designer tilework and a large butler sink.

Slide back the patio doors and step out into your South facing garden, an immaculately arranged space with flower beds, lawn and a gravelled footpath leading to the independent studio at the rear. Fully plumbed and insulated, with a separate WC and sink, plenty of sockets, a wall radiator and a large skylight for extra brightness. Back inside, up on the first floor, you'll find two handsome double bedrooms, featuring more Wainscot panelling, and a luxurious family bathroom. This opulent space has a wonderfully unique colour scheme across an elegant blend of handmade Zellige Moroccan tiles, Carrara herringbone, marble mosaics and Italian Terazzo tilework, sage green cladding, and brass fixtures and fittings.

Head upstairs again - you have acoustic mineral wool insulation between floors for the ultimate in peace and quiet - and on the second floor, you'll find another enormous 160 square foot bedroom with bespoke shelving, two bright skylights and purpose built storage, and your fourth and final bedroom sits just across the landing, with a dramatic floor to ceiling window offering garden and rooftop views. Your second family shower room is tucked between the two bedrooms, home to a spacious stroll in rainfall shower, more of that bespoke blended tiling, glossy splashbacks and another luminous skylight.

Just moments from your front door, at the top of Winchelsea Road, you've two excellent and very different new locals sitting side by side, under the railway arches. At the friendly Wanstead Tap you'll find a relaxed atmosphere and some of the tastiest craft beers in town. Next door, at Joyau, you can enjoy fine wines in more intimate surroundings. At the end of your road you'll also find Dames Road Playground and Jubilee Pond, a beautiful spot for morning walks and if you want to venture further afield this is one of the gateways onto lush, open Wanstead Flats and Heath.
