IF YOU LIVED HERE…

The house presents a confident, well-balanced frontage with classic period proportions, where a bay window adds depth and presence and wide upper-level glazing brings a pleasing sense of openness. Off-street parking sits neatly to the front, complemented by a garage and the added convenience of side access leading directly through to the garden.
Stepping inside, the hallway feels relaxed and welcoming, with wood flooring underfoot and a neatly rising staircase that adds character and definition. To the front, the reception room is comfortably proportioned and centred around a bay window that draws in natural daylight and lends itself to generous seating. A discreet ground floor WC sits close by, neatly arranged for convenience.
To the rear, the kitchen and reception room unfolds into a sociable and fluid arrangement, where cooking, dining and seating areas connect naturally. An elegant archway softens the transition between zones and glazed doors open onto the garden which adds warmth and continuity, creating a setting that feels comfortable to live in and welcoming to guests.
Outside, the garden feels established and private, extending into a long, well-shaped setting with lawn and paved areas framed by mature planting, making it an inviting place for dining, unwinding or spending time with friends.
Upstairs, three bedrooms include the main bedroom and a smaller room, both featuring bay windows with decorative stained-glass details, alongside a further rear bedroom looking out to the garden. The family bathroom is arranged with a bath and separate shower, finished with herringbone-style flooring, with natural light and a layout that feels spacious and airy. At the top of the house, the loft bedroom forms a private suite, with a skylight, rear windows and an en suite completing this self-contained retreat.
The surrounding area offers a balanced mix of day-to-day amenities and a village-style atmosphere close by. Chingford Mount is on hand for local shops and services, while a leisurely walk in the other direction leads into Highams Park, known for its independent cafés and neighbourhood favourites. Biba & Wren is well loved for coffee and relaxed brunches, while The Stag & Lantern has a nice easygoing setting and Vinotap has a well considered wine list. Memorial Park provides a welcoming local hub with open lawns and a playground, and Epping Forest is nearby, offering miles of woodland walks.

A WORD FROM THE EXPERT...

“I love the outdoors as much as the buzz of the city, so Chingford is perfect for me. With Epping Forest on the doorstep, cycling, hiking and exploring are always close by, while transport links take you into the city in under half an hour. Moving between Chingford Mount and North Chingford for a pub, café or takeaway means there is plenty of choice. I often meet friends at The Rusty Bike for Thai food, a wide beer selection or a game of football. Weekends are for the Kings Head, with its sunny beer garden and cosy roasts in winter. Travelling between appointments is a joy thanks to the friendly community, where you are often greeted with a smile. The area’s diversity adds to its appeal, with international takeaways and supermarkets offering new tastes to discover. Evenings are for dog walks at Yates Meadow, where peaceful hills meet city skylines. Chingford truly has something for everyone and is more affordable than much of London”.
