IF YOU LIVED HERE…

You’ll step through your front door into a bright entrance hall, where striking parquet flooring provides a timeless welcome and contrasts beautifully with the neutral walls.

To your left, your spacious reception room spans an impressive 520 square feet. Elegant cornicing sits alongside bespoke carpentry, while soft carpet runs underfoot. A classic wood-burning stove, framed by a lovely mantelpiece, completes the room.

Next door, your open-plan kitchen and dining room creates a brilliant space for entertaining. Oversized smoky grey tiles run underfoot, while a period fireplace takes centre stage. The range cooker and butler sink add a touch of vintage charm, with cream units and timber-style worktops continuing the classic feel. There’s also a handy breakfast bar for quick and easy dining.

To the rear, you’ll find a bright conservatory with a considered colour scheme. Patio doors open onto the beautifully landscaped garden, where you’ll find a manicured lawn, shed and plenty of mature foliage.

Back inside, a convenient WC completes the ground floor. Upstairs, there are three bedrooms, including two substantial doubles and a single, all decorated in soft hues. The front bedroom benefits from a classic wall-length bespoke wardrobe, while the family bathroom combines modern functionality with period touches, offering a spacious corner shower and bathtub. A separate WC sits just next door.

Then there’s the loft conversion, which is a bright and spacious affair thanks to the skylights, with a modern en suite bathroom completing the space.

Outside, you have a driveway providing parking for multiple cars.

There’s plenty to enjoy locally, from Jones & Sons, the sister branch of the renowned Dalston dining hotspot, to the excellent selection of supermarkets nearby, including Waitrose and M&S. The area even boasts its own cinema, just a short walk from the property.

A WORD FROM THE OWNER...

"We’ve loved our time in this home and it’s the little things that have made it such a special place to live. The huge basement has given us an incredible amount of storage, while the large garden has been a real highlight, with beautiful olive trees and a cherry tree that gives us a wonderful crop every year — collecting cherries has become something we look forward to!

We’ve also really enjoyed the local surroundings. Our daily walk through the woods to Highams Park and the lake has been one of our favourite ways to start or end the day, with nature right on our doorstep.

But perhaps the biggest highlight has been the wonderful sense of community on Walpole Road. The annual street party is always a fantastic occasion and a great opportunity to spend time with neighbours and friends. It’s that combination of space, greenery and community that has made this house feel like home."
