IF YOU LIVED HERE…
If you’re not already familiar with this neighbourhood, it’s easy to see why it’s so highly sought-after, with its tree-lined streets and enviable position between the vibrant amenities of Leytonstone and the peaceful nature of Epping Forest.
Inside, the reception room has been beautifully preserved, featuring original timber floorboards, a striking original fireplace, and an abundance of natural light from generously sized windows. Custom-built shelving and a space-saving column radiator add both charm and practicality.
Light flows seamlessly through to the open-plan style kitchen, which is spacious enough to accommodate an island and is fitted with stylish units, brass fittings, and high-spec integrated appliances. The elegant theme continues in the pristine bathroom, where a tasteful contrast colour scheme complements the spacious walk-in shower.
Both bedrooms are immaculate, with the rear one benefiting from built-in storage and direct access to the generous rear garden. Here, you’ll find a large lawn and a sun-trap patio, a true extension of your living space in warmer months.
As for the location, you’ve hit the jackpot.
