3 Bedroom

2 Bath

A lovingly developed, artfully arranged three bedroom semi detached family home, with expertly landscaped rear garden and a wealth of vintage features throughout. You're just five minutes from Manor Park station and the greenery of Wanstead Flats.

That gorgeous garden is home to a 200 square foot, skylit studio. Fully powered and insulated, with floor to ceiling patio doors and hardwood floors, this is a unique and welcome extra space, ideal for turning to all manner of uses.

IF YOU LIVED HERE...

Lovingly curated highlights will be everywhere, but your 320 square foot kitchen/diner is especially breathtaking. A trio of skylights sit in the vaulted ceiling to the rear, combining with twin windows and patio doors to fill the charming space with natural light. Your right hand wall is all sumptuous exposed brick, along with a chimney breast and hearth, home to a classic wood burner.

Immaculately restored original floorboards flow underfoot throughout, and across the way your kitchen's decked out in a generous smooth suite of bespoke timber cabinets, with complementary worktops, Dublin sink and stainless steel chef's oven. It's a splendid space, and you also have a 180 square foot lounge to the front, similarity styled in vintage hardwood and pristine white with another woodburner in the exposed brick hearth.

Your ground floor's completed by the first of your two bathrooms, a sleek shower room with terracotta paintjob and onyx trim. Upstairs all three bedrooms are nicely proportioned, ranging from eighty to 130 square feet, and all finished in fine vintage style. Finally the family bathroom, your second, completes things perfectly with patchwork pastel tiling and a shower over the tub.

WHAT ELSE?

- Manor Park station is just five minutes on foot for the Elizabeth line and direct sixteen minute connections to Liverpool Street, for a door to door City commute of around twenty minutes. Tottenham Court Road, Stratford and Paddington are all also directly accessible.
- Local schools are exceptional, with eleven 'Outstanding' rated primary/secondaries all less than a mile away on foot.
- As expertly extended as this property already is, with your loft space so far unexplored you have the opportunity to follow in your neighbours' footsteps and add a whole new storey of your own (subject to the usual permissions).

a word from the owner...

"We have lived at Wentworth Road for over ten years and have made some amazing friends here. The community in Manor Park is really special, with regular community events, a lovely community garden, and a handy local email group where everyone can share things and organise stuff. The house itself has been the perfect home for us throughout this time, one in which we have always been proud to welcome and host family and friends and have been comfortable raising our children. The west-facing aspect of the property is one of our favourite features. We love how the light streams into the front of the garden studio in the morning and then moves across the rest of the back garden in the afternoon and stays there long into the evenings in the summer. On the inside, we’ve retained and introduced as much natural wood as possible. In my work as a designer, I have worked a lot with wood and love the warm feeling it gives spaces. With this in mind, we restored all the property’s existing woodwork and created bespoke oak kitchen cabinet doors that continue that same feeling in the kitchen extension. We’re sad to be leaving but are happy that someone will get to enjoy living here as much as we have."

Our Local Guide:
Manor Park

Wentworth Road, Manor Park — Stow Brothers

Although it might sound like a Downton Abbey spin-off, in reality Manor Park is a dynamic hotspot for East London creatives, attracted by its independent scene, affordable prices and abundance of green space.

At its heart is the striking Grade II-listed Old Manor Park Library, which was built by philanthropist Andrew Carnegie in 1904 and recently transformed into studio spaces for artists and the local community. This thoughtful old-meets-news fusion is reflective of the area as a whole, with the lively centre giving way to charming property, historic buildings and laid-back parks. 

The biggest development of recent years has been the Crossrail, with the Elizabeth line making a stop at Manor Park. But even before that juggernaut arrived in town, transport links have been excellent – Manor Park is only a short walk to three London Underground lines, meaning locals and visitors can nip into Central London in just 30 mins.

Transport links

It’s already only 13 minutes from Manor Park to Liverpool Street on the Overground, but when Crossrail launches it will be possible to travel to the West End in just 20 mins. East Ham on the District line and Hammersmith & City line is the nearest London Underground station.

Open green spaces

Manor Park isn’t just a name, it’s also an actual green space situated within Wanstead Flats at the southernmost tip of Epping Forest. Interesting fact; it’s rumoured to be the inspiration behind the Small Faces’ hit Itchycoo Park - the band’s frontman and guitarist Steve Marriot grew up locally.

Plenty of period property

Manor Park is proud of its streets of Victorian and Edwardian property, some of which overlook the Wanstead Flats. You should find a mix of refurbished and doer-uppers, as well as double bayed and compact terraces, making the area suitable for a range of budgets.
