Disraeli Road, Forest Gate

A uniquely characterful five bedroom, fully detached dream home. The striking blend of vintage and contemporary architecture that defines the frontage continues inside across all three floors, twin receptions, dual bathrooms and conservatory.

It's all sat on an enviably peaceful no through road in the heart of Forest Gate, surrounded by the plentiful transport options, day to day amenities and open green spaces of this popular East London sweet spot.

IF YOU LIVED HERE…

You'll be moving into an artful architectural accomplishment that stands out dramatically from the crowd. The kerb appeal alone is enough to turn heads, with a battery of first floor micro-bay windows running across the ground floor's broad bow. Head up the front garden and everything's nicely set back and secluded from the street as you step inside.

Design & Decor is immediately impressive, with lovingly restored original floorboards greeting you in the hallway and flowing on into your 215 square foot front reception. Here, a vintage mantelpiece and mirror installation command the space and the walls are finished in dove grey up to the picture rail. Glazed internal doors welcome you through to your second reception, a beautifully bright affair full of natural light with double French doors leading to the garden.

And it's an incredible garden, an endlessly explorable solace where a sheltered patio gives way to a central lawn, shaded by mature trees with pathways and gravel spiralling out from the centre. Head back inside - via your exposed brick and glass conservatory - and your eighteen foot long kitchen stretches out before you, with glossy curvaceous cabinets, a delightful dining nook and double width stainless steel chef's oven. Upstairs and your first two bedrooms are both 170 square foot doubles brimming with vintage designer touches, natural light and plentiful storage.

A third double sits to the rear while a generous single, ideal for a nursery or study, fills out the frontage and your first bathroom offers a walk in rainfall shower. Finally, head up your skylit stairway for the expertly realised loft conversion, with sleek modern lines defining the 290 square foot penthouse double, dual aspect and bright between a Juliet balcony and triple bank of skylights. Your en suite completes the luxurious appointments, dressed from head to toe in smoky slate around a freestanding tub basking beneath your final skylight.

A WORD FROM THE OWNERS...

"From the moment I walked in to the hall of our house I wanted it. I never thought I’d own something so beautiful and spacious so close to central London. It has been a saviour through covid . It is so airy and spacious and after having a child we never get on top of each other. We have so much space, a larder, conservatory, space to exercise inside and out as well a my own lockable office.
Running in West Ham park and taking my little one there has been a joy. I have met so many lovely people on the playground there and am on many whatsapp groups finding several really good friends. Another place I have made contacts is the local library and childrens centres.
Atherton leisure centre is another hub where I have got to meet people with very reasonable, membership prices and really new facilities. I often just pop for a 30 minute swim as it is only 5 minutes walk away.
The community spirit is lovely and I often have a chat with several of my neighbours who are really supportive if we need anything- one is arranging a jubilee party.
A final note is my love of shopping is completely satiated by the proximity of Westfield.
I often walk there on a day off just to have a look around!
Of course getting to work has to be mentioned to pay for the shopping. I can easily work from home with great internet speeds but when I go to work at Bank I can be there door to door in 30mins. My husband boasts of getting from his office in Liverpool Street in 16mins!"
