Description
Set on the ever-popular Corbett Road in Wanstead, this charming 1930s family home beautifully combines period character with modern upgrades throughout - and also offers exciting potential for future development (subject to the usual planning consents).
To the front, a paved driveway offers convenient off-street parking for up to two cars, set just in front of the attractive double-bayed 1930s frontage and porch. The exterior features pebbledash to the upper elevation and red brickwork to the lower bay, framed by contrasting brown UPVC windows that add to the home's character and kerb appeal.
Inside, the front reception room offers 210 square feet of welcoming living space, with a beautiful fully functional, open cast-iron fireplace surrounded by green tiles. The west-facing bay window allows the afternoon sun to flood the room with natural light, creating a warm and homely atmosphere. Throughout the house, original 1930s doors retain a real sense of the property's heritage.
To the rear, we find the second reception room, spanning over 180 square feet and providing a cast-iron hob grate gas effect fireplace set within the chimney breast, surrounded by a solid mahogany carved mantel. From here views onto the 46 foot east facing garden can be seen.
The kitchen is a standout feature, finished with granite flooring, granite worktops, and matching splashbacks. It comes complete with a full range of integrated white goods including a steam oven, hot drawer, standard oven, and microwave, plus an abundance of cupboard and worktop space. From here, there are direct views and access onto the pristinely kept 46-foot east-facing rear garden, complete with heavy duty grade composite decking (millboard) installed August 2024 - perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining.
To the rear of the garden, a private access road leads to a large garage, providing excellent additional storage or secure parking.
Upstairs, you'll find two well-proportioned double bedrooms. The principal bedroom offers an abundance of built-in wardrobe space, with natural light seeping in through the double-glazed windows. The second bedroom also comfortably accommodates a king size bed and additional bedroom furniture. Across the hall, the family bathroom is finished with floor-to-ceiling tiles, tile effect flooring, a walk-in shower, separate bathtub, and hand basin. The third bedroom is the perfect space for a home office, nursery, or guest room.
A ground floor WC provides fully tiled floors, walls and adds extra convenience for busy households.
The property also offers fantastic scope for development. Extending to the rear or converting the loft space (subject to planning permission) could significantly increase the living space and add further value to the home - ideal for growing families or those looking to invest in a prime Wanstead location.
Additional features include gas central heating, a fitted water softener, a hard-wired alarm system, ceiling fans installed in all rooms (please note, one fan will not be staying), and fly screens fitted to the upper and lower bay windows and kitchen.
Located close to excellent local schools, open green spaces, and with easy access to transport links, this is a fantastic opportunity to secure a stylish and practical home in a highly desirable Wanstead setting.
