Description

Nestled within a sought-after residential area, this four-bedroom detached house sits on an impressive plot, offering considerable renovation and investment potential. The expansive rear garden spans approximately forty-five metres, providing a blank canvas for landscaping, extension, or the creation of a vibrant outdoor living space. Additionally, off-street parking for multiple vehicles ensures convenience in this bustling East London locale. This property is ideal for those looking to embark on a substantial refurbishment or redevelopment project. With its historic Tudor Revival architecture featuring characteristic exposed timber detailing and leaded windows, the house exudes a unique charm that pays homage to its era. The generous dimensions and striking gabled facade invite creativity and modernization while retaining the home's architectural integrity. Upon entering, one is greeted by a spacious hallway that flows seamlessly into each of the reception rooms and the kitchen. A separate side entrance enhances accessibility and opens up possibilities for reconfiguration. The front reception room benefits from a large bay window and ample natural light; the rear reception room extends into a conservatory adorned with original stained glass elements—each space offers potential for innovative redesign. The extensive garden at the back remains largely untouched, surrounded by mature trees that provide privacy while presenting opportunities for transformative landscaping or extensions to the home itself. The first floor features four bedrooms, each uniquely shaped with distinct views, complemented by additional charming stained glass accents. A well-lit family bathroom alongside a separate WC optimizes functionality for daily living. This property encapsulates years of history while presenting endless possibilities for those ready to invest in its revival. Located just minutes away from Wanstead High Street, residents can enjoy an inviting mix of local amenities including cafes like Bobo & Wild and renowned pizza spot Luppolo. For leisurely outings, Wanstead Park and Wanstead Flats provide picturesque green spaces perfect for families and nature enthusiasts alike. Families will appreciate access to highly regarded schools such as Nightingale Primary School within proximity. With Wanstead Station only five minutes away on foot, commuting to central London via the Central Line is straightforward. Well-established bus routes also facilitate easy connections to surrounding areas including Leytonstone and Walthamstow. This property combines potential with practical living in a desirable neighborhood—an opportunity not often found in today’s market.
