Description

Nestled on a serene residential street, this charming mid-terrace house from the 1930s boasts three bedrooms and over 1,000 square feet of versatile living space. The existing layout lends itself well to modern family dynamics, with ample opportunity for expansion, pending planning permissions. The west-facing garden, measuring approximately forty-five feet, offers a lovely outdoor retreat bathed in afternoon sunlight and includes convenient rear access. Nearby parks such as Chase Lane Park provide additional green space for recreation. Located within easy reach of Chingford, Highams Park, and Walthamstow enhances the home's connectivity, making it an appealing option for families. Step inside to discover a traditional exterior complemented by a classic porch and large ground-floor window that welcomes natural light into the home. The inviting hallway leads into spacious reception areas designed for comfortable living. The main reception room seamlessly connects with a study through a graceful archway, fostering an open flow throughout. A bay window brightens the front room, while glass-panelled sliding doors at the back offer direct access to the garden—ideal for indoor-outdoor living. The kitchen is situated just beyond and presents an excellent platform for potential remodeling to create a contemporary open-plan dining space. The garden itself features both terraced and lawned areas suitable for entertaining or relaxing amidst greenery framed by mature trees from neighbouring properties that enhance privacy. Upstairs accommodates three bedrooms: two generous doubles along with a versatile third bedroom perfect as a home office or nursery. The sizeable bathroom includes both a bathtub and separate shower, providing comfort and convenience. While current decor may benefit from updates over time—as reflected in its inviting yet traditional ambiance—the house presents an excellent foundation to gradually enhance interiors according to personal taste. Situated within the friendly Chingford Mount community, local shops and cafes are within close proximity along with recreational amenities like Chase Lane Park featuring children's play areas. Educational facilities nearby further bolster its appeal to families. Public transport options are readily available with quick access to bus routes leading to Chingford Station in approximately twenty minutes, ensuring residents can easily navigate the vibrant surrounding areas filled with diverse shops and eateries.
