A three bedroom family terrace, smartly finished throughout with a blend of modern style and original features. Located on a peaceful, tree lined residential street just off Lea Bridge Road, you have all your day to day amenities on your doorstep.
A superb example of the period style, with generous proportions and high ceilings, this property also offers you plenty of opportunities for further development, including turning your skylit, boarded loft into a full second storey, as some of your neighbours have done (STPP).
With Lea Bridge Road just moments away you'll never be short of everyday essentials, while you're just a short stroll from Leyton Midland Road station for overground links and a range of adjacent cafes and restaurants. Finally there's a fine choice of parks on your doorstep.
YOUR NEW HOME
Your hallway welcomes you with royal blue panelling up to the classic dado rail and wood underfoot.
The classic period layout goes on to serve you well here, with your front reception immediately on the right, coming in at 150 square feet and bathed in natural light thanks to the classic bay window. Darkly stained vintage floorboards run underfoot and a jet black hearth takes centre stage below an ornate, period mantel.
Next door your kitchen's a charming, cottage style affair with beams overhead and patchwork tilework underfoot. Separate suites of substantial cabinets line the walls in white and royal blue, with rich timber worktops and a large Butler sink. Planning permission granted for extensive rear extension as of July 2024.
A generous light filled porch, practically a utility room, leads out to your lengthy rear garden. Here you have forty feet of gravel, lush lawn and patio, flanked by screening greenery and ending in a secluded seating area and lovely brick wall backdrop, all overlooked by nothing but mature trees.
Back inside and the family bathroom is another wonderful highlight, home to a gorgeous free-standing clawfoot tub, marbled vanity unit and corner rainfall shower cubicle.
Upstairs, and your master bedroom to the front totals 160 square feet, with the original architecture once again shining through courtesy of honey coloured vintage floorboards and twin sash windows.
To the rear, bedroom two is another double, with pastel green paint job and leafy garden views. Bedroom three, a generous single, is ideal for a child's room, home working space or, as the current owners have it, walk in wardrobe and exercise space.
Finally, your loft is boarded and skylit, ideal for extra storage or further development. Permitted planning application already granted by council as of July 2024
