Set within the ever-popular Village area of Wanstead, this beautifully presented semi-detached Victorian cottage offers timeless character, generous proportions and modern family living on the sought-after tree-lined Halstead Road.

Ideally positioned just moments from Wanstead High Street and within easy walking distance of both Snaresbrook Station and Wanstead Station, the home also benefits from excellent access to highly regarded local nurseries and primary schools. Extending to approximately 1,843 sq. ft., the property has been thoughtfully enhanced with a superb loft extension , creating a stylish and highly functional home that effortlessly blends original Victorian charm with contemporary finishes.
