Potters Row, Stratford, E20

Okay, so we've got a bit of a special one here. As in, one of only 4 properties in Chobham Manor to be built with modular living in mind, kind of special. Designed by award winning architect's Haworth Tompkins, the same firm behind Chobham Manor's flagship Park View Mansions - this is Potters Row, E20.

Lush, landscaped surroundings welcome you to this quiet residential row - with no through-road - where neighbours' children can often be seen learning to ride bikes, painting quite the picture of life here, and it's safety, seclusion and tranquillity. Set behind a field maple tree amongst other foliage, planted by the doting owners to afford more privacy, this imposing townhouse was built to a 'Lifetime Home' specification, where it's modular qualities allow for easy re-configuration of rooms, potential to install a lift, and with corridors and doorways wide enough to accommodate accessible living. 

"The large windows and full length glass doors to both the terrace and front yard give the sense of 'outdoors, inside'" and it's not hard to see the owners' viewpoint while enjoying verdant scenes unfold from the comfort of indoors. Triple glazing throughout ensures nature and life outside, are seen, not heard, while also welcoming in an abundance of natural light on all floors, from the East and South. 

On the ground floor, hardwood parquet accents feature within oak flooring, sourced from a well known theatre, that welcome you in from the patio, and lie flush against four generous storage cupboards (one is intended to be used for a lift shaft), leading to the downstairs WC. On the other side of the wall, the heart of the home: a spacious, living and dining area, that connects to the outdoors via full height glass doors, while on the opposite end, an upgraded spec, L-shaped kitchen includes folding cupboards, dual ovens and a wine cooler - all while affording plenty of counterspace and storage.

Upstairs, fitted carpets lead to a floor that could either be used as a bedroom suite, or a second reception, showcasing the property's versatility, and the full height window resembles something from a postcard - perfect for reading, sitting with friends, and more. Dual access to the elevated terrace provides a second conversation point, while overlooking the patio, and the position of this particular property on the row, opens up the view. The three piece guest bathroom features contrast tiling, with the staircase opposite leading us to the top floor, where a three piece shower suite compliments a further two generous bedrooms - one with a gorgeous wood crafted, six-door, built- in wardrobe with shelving, and the other being large enough to incorporate a home office. Both with views over the outside spaces and towards the Stratford Skyline.

On the doorstep to the newly completed East Bank, new owners can immerse themselves in a wealth of local establishments celebrating education, arts and culture, including the brand new V&A museum (and V&A Storehouse), Sadlers Wells, the tranquils of the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, local Ofsted Outstanding schools, Westfield Shopping Centre and all the connectivity you need from Stratford and Stratford International stations.

With allocated undercroft parking and secure bike storage included, could this be your next address?
