Wanstead Place Wanstead , E11 2SW

IF YOU LIVED HERE...

You'll have almost 1700 square feet of splendidly appointed living space to stretch out in, bursting with character and vintage style throughout. Nicely set back from the road by a picket fence and generous front yard, once past the handsome brick frontage your first port of call will be that immaculate through lounge. More than twenty seven feet deep, with the high ceilings of the period, original timber floorboards underfoot and a pair of striking marbled mantelpieces set into the twin chimney breasts, this is a superb introduction.

To the rear, your equally generous kitchen/diner makes for another splendid hosting spot. Painted timber floorboards run underfoot, the box bay window frames the dining area, while your lengthy kitchen itself is home to a wealth of Lamp Black cabinets (Little Greene paints were used in here, as throughout), topped with timber work surfaces, metro tile splashbacks and a large Belfast sink looking out to your garden. And quite a garden it is - a raised timber deck looks out over a lush length of lawn, surrounded by thriving, riotous greenery. There's also a covetable coffee spot tucked away in your unusually generous side return, with plenty of space for a dining table and plenty of potential for further development should you desire (STPP).

Back inside and upstairs, your principal bedroom comes in at more than 200 square feet, with floor to ceiling fitted wardrobes either side of the chimney breast, a dark vintage hearth, ornate white timber mantel, gorgeous Fornasetti Nuvolette wallpaper above the bed and twin sash windows framing treetop views over Christchurch Green. Beautifully bright and tranquil. Next door bedroom two's another double, similarity styled, while bedroom three sits to the rear, with characterful palm frond wallpaper and an equally leafy garden view.

Your family bathroom sits in between, handsomely attired with chessboard flooring, mint green timber panelling from floor to hip, walk-in rainfall shower and freestanding clawfoot tub. Upstairs again, where your expertly realised loft conversion offers a fourth double bedroom, 160 square foot, dual aspect and skylit. An en suite shower room rounds out the property, also skylit with a sleek modern suite and more of those glorious views over Christchurch Green.
