This lovely property is also close to Leyton High Road and Olympic Park – with green space and a high street right on your doorstep, this area really has everything you could need.
Approaching the front of the property, you're met with a paved walkway and walled front garden, providing some distance and privacy from the street. The front door is framed by a white brick archway and covered porch space, and opens straight into your hallway, to the left-hand side of which is the entrance into the first of two reception rooms.
This first, front-aspect reception is spacious, with a lovely bay window looking out onto the street which floods the room with natural light. The simple and elegant décor in here only extends the bright and airy feel of the room, with its cool white walls and grey carpeting. The original cornicing that lines the ceilings subtly points to the Victorian origins of the house, and the room offers ample space for a comfy, family-sized lounge suite, your entertainments unit and a large coffee table.
Back out in the hallway, right next door you'll find a second reception room. With its appealing original light oak wooden flooring and white walls, the room is a brilliant blank slate ready to make your own mark on it. Slightly larger than its counterpart, it offers a window to the rear looking out onto the garden space and ensuring plenty of natural light, and would make an ideal family room, play room or - with its door directly to the kitchen - a fantastic dining room and entertaining space.
The characterful original wood flooring continues through into the kitchen, which is painted white with creamy stone-styled tiling running above the worktops providing an easy-to-clean splashback. The kitchen units are a gorgeous sandy colour, with sleek metal handles and overlaid countertops in a complementary beige. There are also overhead cabinets, an electric hob and an oven helpfully fitted at standing level. The boiler is fitted in above the sink to the back left of the room, and here another door opens up onto a small conservatory space, which is lit beautifully and allows light to reach the kitchen too. To your right there is a super-handy downstairs WC, with a sink fitted by the back door in the double-glazed lean-to section. A practical and functional space that's ready and waiting for you to cook up a feast!
Follow the back door outside and you'll arrive in the lovely courtyard garden – consisting of a small tiled patio area fitted with raised wooden decking. There's room for a table and chairs or garden bench, with space leftover for a barbecue: In fact this garden could prove a lovely little outdoor social space. It's also enclosed with high, carmine-coloured fencing, which also gives the garden an extra sense of privacy. There's also a side return, which is the ideal area for a small storage unit or stowing away your bikes or the kids' outdoor toys.
Heading back through the house and to the entrance hall, follow the carpeted stairs straight up to the first floor. Directly opposite the landing is a cozy single bedroom overlooking the garden. An inbuilt wardrobe complete with overhead cabinets provides some ideal storage space, with room for a single bed lying alongside. This room would make a comfortable child's bedroom, nursery or alternatively a study space/office – a fantastic range of options to suit whatever you need from your new home.
Also accessible from the landing is the main bathroom, which is decorated with white tiled walls and a white and black tiled floor. The sandy wooden panelled bath, complete with an over-bath shower, lies nestled under the window – a lovely spot to relax, unwind and soothe away the stresses of the day. There's also a sink, toilet and fitted shelving unit, with space for a mirror over the sink.
Back on the landing and up another small set of stairs to a continuation of the landing space, there's an inbuilt cupboard fitted with shelving on your left. On the right is the door to the second bedroom, which is a good size and has a window overlooking the garden. You can easily fit a double bed, wardrobe and bedside table, making it an excellent guest bedroom, or indeed a nursery, child's room or study.
The door to the master bedroom is at the end of the landing. This room is truly spacious, with two windows overlooking the street, allowing the space to be bathed in light – perfect if you want to add a dressing table in with the rest of your bedroom furniture! As with all the bedrooms, this is ready and waiting for you make it your own.
Ultimately, this three bedroom house really could be the perfect home for either a new family, couple or even an individual who's looking for some extra space.
