Description

Petty Son & Prestwich are delighted to bring to market this charming three-bedroom period terraced home, ideally located just moments from Jubilee Pond and Wanstead Flats.

A short stroll brings you to the popular ‘Arches’, home to the impressive Joyau wine bar and Wild Goose bakery. The area is also well served by a selection of Ofsted-rated Good and Outstanding primary and secondary schools.

Full of character both inside and out, the property features a striking double-height bay window with newly fitted double-glazed timber sash windows, enhancing the sense of space and natural light. The current owners have also installed a stylish Corten steel bike box to the front of the property, providing secure and convenient storage, while the planted frontage offers both colour and privacy.

Inside, the beautifully open layout seamlessly connects the living, dining and kitchen areas. The reception rooms feature a wonderful combination of original wooden floors, central fireplaces and cast-iron radiators, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.

To the rear, the thoughtfully designed kitchen features limestone flooring, a double butler sink, generous larder storage and a skylight that floods the space with natural light. Also on the ground floor is a spacious family bathroom, complete with a freestanding roll-top bath.

Upstairs are three bright and generously proportioned double bedrooms, each retaining original features that add to the home’s unique period charm. A fold-down ladder provides access to the loft, which benefits from two skylights and offers excellent additional storage.

Outside, the low-maintenance rear garden is predominantly paved, providing an ideal setting for entertaining and al fresco dining. There is also a versatile outbuilding with lighting and power, making it perfect for use as a home office, studio or summerhouse.

Forest Gate Station is approximately 0.6 miles away, offering the Elizabeth line that provides excellent connections into central London and making this home an excellent choice for commuters.

For well over a century Petty Son and Prestwich has had a long and successful history in Wanstead and the surrounding area. The firm was founded in Leytonstone in 1908 by C. Petty, a locally renowned builder, under the style of Petty & Son. The company was then run by his son Charles, a chartered surveyor.

Petty and Son quickly grew in both size and reputation and was soon to become Petty Son & Prestwich when Harry Prestwich entered the partnership, offering services in surveying, estate agency and auctioneering. The Wanstead Office was opened in 1912.
