Description

A great opportunity to create your dream home in Bushwood, this three bedroom Victorian/Edwardian house offers generous accommodation, wonderful period features and plenty of potential to make it your own. Set on a quiet no-through road, it also enjoys a lovely community feel while being close to Wanstead Flats, excellent schools and transport links.

Set on a no-through road, this semi-detached Victorian/Edwardian property immediately makes a lovely first impression, with a small front garden enclosed by a hedge and a side entrance leading to the paved side return and rear garden. The large bay window, ornate surrounds and period detailing give the exterior plenty of character, while an exterior door opens into a small porch with original tiling and a further door into the house.

Inside, the hallway features beautiful stained wooden floorboards which continue through into both receptions, while a useful storage cupboard sits beneath the balustrade staircase.
The first reception, positioned at the front of the house, is a particularly characterful room, centred around a lovely bay window and an impressive period wrought iron and tiled fireplace with marble surround and mantelpiece. Recesses either side of the chimney breast provide useful space for furniture, display or storage, while original cornice and picture rails add further character. Double doors to the rear can be opened to connect the two receptions, creating a larger, more sociable space when required.

The second reception is another generous room, with a door opening directly onto the garden. A chimney breast with recesses either side, together with cornice and picture rail, echoes the period detailing of the room at the front. It also offers plenty of flexibility, whether used as a children’s playroom, home office, gym, snug or hobby room.
To the rear, a small vestibule leads to a useful downstairs WC with sink before opening into the spacious kitchen-diner.

The room is arranged into two distinct zones, with a bright dining area overlooking the front through a large bay window and plenty of space for a family-sized table, storage and display. A breakfast bar separates this from the kitchen, which is fitted with plenty of oak-effect wall and base cabinets, grey mottled granite-effect worktops and an integrated oven, hob and extractor. There’s ample space for everyday family cooking as well as entertaining.

At the rear, further natural light comes through a window and half-glazed door leading into a fully glazed conservatory/lean-to. From here, there is access to the rear garden, with the paved side return to one side and a lawned area to the other. High fencing and established shrubs give the garden a private feel, while some landscaping and TLC could transform it into a lovely outdoor space.
Upstairs, the split-level landing leads first to bedroom three at the rear, a good-sized double, and the fully tiled family bathroom. This is fitted with a white suite comprising WC, wash basin and bath with shower over.

Bedroom two is another generous double, with a useful wash basin and vanity unit. Period picture rails continue here, along with a fireplace featuring a high surround, shelf and mirror.
Positioned at the front of the house, bedroom one is a particularly spacious double, with two large windows overlooking the street. There’s plenty of room for a king-size bed, wardrobes and storage, dressing table and TV, creating a comfortable main bedroom with space to settle in at the end of the day.

While the house would benefit from modernisation, it offers a fantastic opportunity to create a characterful family home in one of Leytonstone’s most appealing residential pockets. Just a few yards from Wanstead Flats, the peaceful surroundings have a wonderfully open, almost countryside feel, while everyday amenities are remarkably close at hand.
Leytonstone Central Line underground station and Leytonstone High Road Overground station are both within walking distance, alongside two supermarkets, M&S, the Ofsted-rated ‘Outstanding’ Davies Lane Primary School and a wide choice of independent shops, cafés, bars and restaurants.

There are also excellent leisure and outdoor spaces nearby, with Hackney Marshes, Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park and Walthamstow Wetlands nature reserve all within easy reach.

Sellers comments....
We have lived here since 2001, and whilst original improvements were made on moving in, the property now needs an upgrade in terms of the kitchen and bathroom and general redecoration from top to bottom. There is also scope for further improvements to increase living space if so desired. We have been enormously happy in this house and area and the proposed sale has come about in order
to facilitate a move out of London to provide more space for 3 adults and 3 active children in a bigger property.
