Gladstone Road, Buckhurst Hill

Full of character and charm, this two double bedroom Victorian home boasts a spacious reception room, kitchen with separate utility, and glorious period details throughout, along with a secluded south-facing garden.

The location is just as impressive - as well as being near Epping Forest, it’s only a short walk from Buckhurst Hill station, where fast Central line services take you to Liverpool Street in around 30 minutes. And while now expired, planning permission had previously been granted for a first-floor extension, offering exciting potential.

IF YOU LIVED HERE…

Behind its enduring brick frontage, this beautifully presented home opens into a welcoming reception room, complete with smart carpeting, neutral tones, a stylish open-tread staircase and a traditional fireplace as a cosy focal point.

The kitchen continues the classic aesthetic with neat cabinetry and rustic-style flooring, while a separate utility brings everyday convenience. The bathroom contrasts with a sleek, contemporary design.

At the rear, the south-facing garden features a paved patio and a rich mix of planting - including a majestic palm that will surely become a much-loved sight as you relax in the sun.

Upstairs, both bedrooms are immaculately finished, filled with natural light, and each enhanced by a thoughtful feature wall.

Located moments from Buckhurst Hill’s vibrant Queens Road, you’ll enjoy independent cafés, shops, and pubs on your doorstep. The area also offers excellent schools, easy access to green spaces including Epping Forest and Roding Valley, and a wide range of sports clubs.

A BIT ABOUT BUCKHURST HILL...
 
Originally springing up around the Eastern Counties Railway in the mid nineteenth century, Buckhurst Hill is these days well served by the central line, whisking you straight to Liverpool Street in just twenty-three minutes.
Despite these speedy city connections, the area retains its roots as part of sprawling Epping Forest, the former favoured royal hunting ground, so you're sure to have plenty of green space at your fingertips.
That royal legacy also lives on in the thoroughfare of Queens Road, where you'll find a range of wining and dining spots, including the ever-popular Green Owl Cafe, offering delicious coffee, deli food and homemade specialties, and the award-winning Tandoor at The Chambers. Here's also where you'll find a large Waitrose.
Still largely residential, Buckhurst Hill is one of Greater London's town and country sweet spots, offering an increasingly popular mix of easy city access, generous square footage, and lots of local greenery for stretching your legs. You can stretch everything else at Chilli Pilates on Queen's Road.
Housing stock is mostly original Victorian, Edwardian and 1930s properties, while decades of owner development mean you have everything from terrace conversions to comprehensively expanded townhouses to choose from, with personality and character in plentiful supply both inside and out.
