IF YOU LIVED HERE...

You’ll appreciate the appealing facade of your home, especially with its charming front door. Once inside, you’ll find your rustic-style kitchen/diner, gorgeously bright thanks to the vast amount of light being let in via the mezzanine-style flooring arrangement, creating an epic area with double height windows. This ambiance continues on the upper ground floor, where your through-reception exudes a traditional charm. The original floorboards have been beautifully restored and the marble fireplace surround is a stunning focal point. The shelving on either side of the chimney breast adds practical convenience as well.

Up on the first floor, you have your master bedroom, complete with two windows, immaculate decor, in-built storage and an ensuite. There’s also a spacious family bathroom on this floor, with more vintage-style fittings and an over-tub shower (you have a walk-in in the ensuite).

Back on the lower ground floor you can access your south-facing garden, which is bursting with mature foliage, bringing a great sense of seclusion.

When you're ready to step out of your cozy home, you'll discover some great amenities just around the corner. Start with a stroll to Wanstead Flats (Henry VIII’s favoured hunting ground), which is ideal for dog-walkers, fitness fans and picnickers. Hungry? Head to Winchelsea Road, a thriving hub with some fantastic eateries located in the old railway arches - about 15 mins on foot. Look out for Pretty Decent Beer, The Wanstead Kitchen, Wild Goose Bakery and Joyau Wine.

In the other direction, you’ll come across the Golden Fleece, a traditional pub with a beer garden, well-stocked menu and a great selection of locally brewed ales. There are plenty more options too, so you’ll have a great time exploring and choosing your favourites.
