Description
Bordered directly by woodland, this substantial period home is situated within the Lake House Conservation area and enjoys direct access from the rear garden onto open forest land. Wanstead Park and Wanstead Flats are also within easy reach, offering some of East London’s most beautiful green spaces right on the doorstep.
The location is equally well connected, with Leytonstone Underground Station approximately 0.9 miles away and Wanstead Central Line Station around 0.8 miles. For families, this property is within the vicinity of four Ofsted outstanding rated State schools, both Primary and Secondary and close to two competitive Private schools.
Requiring complete refurbishment throughout, the property presents an exciting opportunity to take a home of genuine period character and reimagine it entirely around the needs and lifestyle of its next owners. The existing proportions provide an excellent foundation, with many of the original architectural details still in place. Parquet flooring, imposing fireplaces, deep decorative mouldings and generous skirting boards sit alongside the high ceilings and large windows synonymous with homes of this era.
The accommodation is particularly generous, with three substantial formal reception rooms, a large kitchen and conservatory occupying the ground floor, together with a useful cellar providing additional storage.
Across the first and second floors are four well-proportioned bedrooms and two bathrooms. There is also potential to introduce a roof dormer, subject to the necessary planning permissions, creating additional usable floorspace within the second-floor bedroom and bathroom (STPP).
Outside, the property continues to offer considerable scope. To the front, an attractive garden is framed by traditional cast iron railings, whilst the sizeable rear garden offers a blank canvas for more ambitious landscaping. There is ample room for a substantial garden studio or outbuilding alongside dedicated areas for entertaining and children's play.
The property is offered to the market chain free.
