Grand old houses like this were built to appeal to the 'well to do' middle classes who were migrating out of central London at the turn of the 20th century in search of a cleaner, healthier environment than the City could offer. Chingford Station opened in 1873 and made the area much more accessible and what was a then a small village, grew rapidly into a busy suburb by the 1930's.

With around 2600 sqft of internal living space, 10ft high ceilings and plenty of original detail, this impressive Edwardian era home has a contemporary feel with an abundance of light and space, while still retaining the character of its roots. Original plaster ceiling cornice, hardwood Herringbone floors, period fireplaces and beautiful leaded light windows blend seamlessly with original stripped floorboards and a neutral colour palette to create a stylish family home.

Enter via the double width front doors into a stunning hallway bathed in natural light from original leaded light windows. Accommodation includes on the lower ground, a garage, utility room and ample storage space.
On the elevated ground floor there is a very well proportioned reception to the front with original windows of the period and leaded light inserts, to the rear a 16'5 dining room with a 10' high ceiling from where you can access the kitchen and conservatory/garden room. The kitchen is integrated and also has its own walk in pantry. There is also a useful storage cupboard and guest w/c accessible from the lower hallway. The rear garden is around 100 ft in length and has a useful outbuilding/potential home office.

On the first floor you'll find a sumptuous master bedroom with fitted storage, two further double bedrooms and a stylish, contemporary shower room. On the top (2nd floor) there is a luxuriously appointed bathroom with a roll top bath and another large double bedroom with a clever alcove created from the space within the roof gable.

If you lived here, you are around a 3 minute walk away from Chingford Station with its links to the Victoria Line at Walthamstow Central (15 mins) and London's Liverpool Street (25 mins) and because it's the end of the line, you'll nearly always get a seat.
For shopping and eating out, Station Road is moments from your door with an excellent selection of independent shops, bars and restaurants and for those who love the outdoors, the delights of Epping Forest are literally at the end of this tranquil side turning. It's a Mecca for walkers, cyclists and runners using the network of leafy trails that weave their way through these ancient woods.
