House For Sale £800,000
An expertly appointed four bedroom semi-detached home with wrap-around garden enviably located on one of the leafy streets that have made Wanstead one of East London's most sought-after villages. All amenities, excellent transport links and open green spaces are within easy reach.
You'll forget you're in London with the natural green and blue space of Leyton Flats and Eagle Pond a mere eleven minutes away on foot; perfect for losing yourself in nature or reaching Fitbit goals.
If you lived here...
You'll be stretching out in 1500 square feet of space spread over three floors. Let's start with your huge 270 square lounge, a gorgeous hosting space with blonde engineered hardwood underfoot, a constellation of recessed spot lighting overhead and green views. It's laid semi open plan to the dining room, itself a generous ninety five square feet and bright with nourishing natural light courtesy of the skylight and blessed with a charming ivy-adorned view of your garden through French doors.
Throw these open to greet your timber decked al fresco seating area, it's a fine spot with flourishing beds and a cheery terracotta wall. With a lawn and more thriving beds wrapping around the left side of the house, this space lends itself to further development, should you wish (subject to the usual permissions). Back inside and the kitchen's off the lounge - it's another generous space with teal flourishes and a view over your lush lawn. You'll find a handy utility room with side garden access just off here.
The ground floor's completed by a shower room home to sparkling tiles, a curved shower cubicle and heated towel rail. Head upstairs for two bright and immaculate double bedrooms coming in at 100 and 120 square feet, plus a single of sixty square foot which would be equally in its element as a child's room or home working space. The family bathroom's in sleek light anthracite two-tone floor and walls, and counts an oval tub, double length walk-in rainfall shower cubicle and chrome heated towel rail among its many charms.
Up one more flight of stairs and you have your penthouse master of around 280 square feet. This Dormer conversion has built-in wall and under eaves storage space with white walls and rooftop views. Quite the solace. At street level a footpath runs alongside the outside perimeter of the property onto Elderfield Walk; it's a very handy short cut to the attractions of Nightingale Lane (more of that in a bit).
Here you're a seven minute stroll from the heart of Wanstead - our bustling East London village High Street, flanked by green space and bursting with excellent bars, restaurants and gourmet pubs. Peckish? The Larder comes highly recommended, it's a gem of a cafe with incredible patisserie. Michelin starred Provender is a fantastic contemporary brasserie, while Bare Brew is an independent coffee shop offering a mouth-watering brunch. Closer to home and The Duke (winner of a TimeOut favourite pub award) is one of several exciting options on Nightingale Lane and renowned for its annual street party and summer barbecues.
What else?
- Local schools are chiefly excellent, with eleven primary/secondaries rated 'Good' or better by Ofsted in a one mile radius, an incredible five of which have been awarded 'Outstanding' status, including Nightingale Primary, just ten minutes' walk.
- Drivers can be on the North Circular in around five minutes.
- Central London is itself only around fifteen minutes away via Wanstead or Snaresbrook tube stations, both an eleven minute walk and with direct routes to the West End and the City via the Central line. Local bus routes from the High Street will whisk you across London day and night.

A word from the owner....
"As soon as we first viewed this house we knew it was perfect for us and our family. The location is fantastic – Leicester Road is quiet and peaceful, but the High Street, some great pubs, and Wanstead and Snaresbrook stations are very close by. Our children have attended the Wanstead Church School and Nightingale, and both live up to their fantastic reputations. During the last year of lockdowns the house and garden have provided loads of space for our family to grow and for us to work effectively from home. We’d happily stay here for many,
many more years, and are only considering selling in order to move closer to family outside London."
