Tennyson Avenue, Wanstead

Petty Son & Prestwich are delighted to present this remarkable six-bedroom family home on one of the area’s most prestigious tree-lined roads.

Located just 0.4 miles from Wanstead Underground Station and moments from Wanstead High Street, this home offers exceptional access to local amenities, schools, green spaces and transport links. Discreetly positioned just behind George Green in the heart of Central Wanstead and combining timeless period charm with contemporary luxury, this extensively refurbished and architecturally extended home offers exemplary living across three beautifully curated floors.

Beyond the striking façade lies a grand, furnishable entrance hall featuring replica Minton tiles, discreet coat and understairs storage and bespoke joinery, setting the tone for the level of craftsmanship found throughout the home. Every detail has been carefully considered to deliver effortless modern living. The ground floor is equipped with wet underfloor heating, while two separate boilers and twin Megaflo systems ensure optimal water pressure and heating performance throughout the home. A Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR) system enhances air quality and climate control across all living spaces. There is also additional sound proofing throughout the ground and first floor.

The accommodation begins through the first set of double doors with an elegant formal sitting room, where timeless sophistication meets contemporary comfort. Underfoot, exquisite herringbone flooring sets the tone, complemented by a central gas fireplace that creates a warm and inviting focal point. A beautifully dressed bay window bathes the space in natural light, while a pair of striking leaded, stained-glass double doors add a touch of period charm and open gracefully into the expansive kitchen and dining room.

The beautifully appointed kitchen and living space to the rear of the property serves as the heart of the home and a true showcase of design and practicality. Here, bespoke cabinetry surrounds a high-spec island with integrated induction hob, downdraft extractor, sink, inset worktop and breakfast bar, with further premium appliances including Miele double ovens and warming drawer, double butler sink, Quooker tap and a full-height integrated fridge/freezer. Beyond the kitchen, a skylit seating area overlooks the garden through dual sets of timber bi-fold doors, and adjacent, a generous dining area is anchored by a striking bespoke backlit dresser and an expansive double pantry, painted in a bold burnt orange - offering both visual impact and practical storage.

Discreet yet dramatic sliding doors, finished in the same rich hue, open into an additional reception room, crowned by a magnificent sky lantern. This versatile space, ideal as a playroom, home office, or fitness studio, is a further testament to the home’s exceptional flexibility and design-led vision.

Leading seamlessly from the kitchen, a thoughtfully designed lobby area offers immediate access to the gated side passage, as well as the remainder of the ground floor amenities. To the left, a spacious utility room provides ample worktop space and storage and grants internal access to the integral garage - ideal for managing the practicalities of daily life. To the right, a guest cloakroom offers further practicality.

The first floor offers five generously proportioned bedrooms, two of these bedrooms boast impeccably appointed en-suite facilities, while the principal bedroom’s ‘Jack and Jill’ en-suite arrangement and further guest W.C. located off the landing serves the remaining two rooms with equal convenience. The principal suite on this level is a true retreat, featuring an expansive bedroom, a dedicated dressing area, and an opulent en-suite complete with both a bath and a separate walk-in shower providing a perfect blend of indulgence and functionality.

Rising to the second floor, a further exceptional, vaulted suite presents a compelling alternative principal bedroom. Thoughtfully designed with extensive built-in wardrobes and an elegant, traditionally styled en-suite shower room, it showcases a striking black and white mosaic tile floor; a charming nod to classic design within this thoroughly contemporary home.

Outside, the wide, landscaped rear garden has been expertly designed to suit both families and avid entertainers, featuring a summerhouse, dual patio areas, formal lawn, children’s play zones and discreet storage solutions and greenhouse, all bordered by mature planting. To the front, the composite driveway provides off-street parking for multiple vehicles and includes two electric vehicle charging points as well as five retractable security bollards for peace of mind.
