House For Sale £750,000
An artistic and characterful four bedroom 1930s semi detached. Bursting with vintage style, original features and surrounded by colourful thriving foliage, this is as charming a retreat as you could hope to find, with a wealth of space inside and out. And yet it's all handy for the heart of Chingford.
The wild wide open greenery of 'London's Forest', aka Epping Forest, starts just two minutes from your front door. Stroll or jog to your heart's content, and venture further in for Chingford Golf Club, open green spaces and striking views.
If you lived here
You'll enter your delightfully cottagey front garden, a riot of colour and screening greenery, pass that classically handsome frontage and head round to your discrete side entrance. Inside, your gorgeous vintage timber staircase is immediately in front of you, flanked by your first two reception rooms, also floored with restored timber and coming in at a generous 200 square feet, every inch bright and brimming with character.
Also leading off your entryway you have a dual aspect, extra bedroom or study, featuring some lovely stained glass, as well as the first of your three bathrooms, charming in purple and white with a classic freestanding tub. Explore your ground floor further and you'll find the skylit, dedicated study. Beautifully bright and full of natural light it's a wonderful home working space.
You have underfloor heating in here as well as in your adjacent kitchen/diner, coming in at around 140 square feet with a large breakfast bar taking centre stage. Units are a smoky rural green and home to a full complement of integrated appliances as well as an extra wide rangemaster oven. There's an indispensable utility room and second bathroom just off the main dining space, itself awash with light from the green garden vista. Out here you have a vast south-facing garden, endlessly explorable and home to lawns, secluded seating areas and mature greenery.
Best of all the garden's home to a stand-alone, 140 square foot workshop/studio, fully powered and insulated and ideal for turning to all manner of uses. Back inside and upstairs your master bedroom's an impressive 190 square feet, blessed with that wide bow window inset with stained glass and a striking taupe up to the gold picture rail. Your three remaining bedrooms are all solid, characterful doubles, and all have that lovingly restored vintage timber underfoot. Finally, your third bathroom is perhaps the most sumptuous yet, with an oversized rainfall shower over the L-shaped tub.
Outside and as well as the endless greenery of Epping Forest on your doorstep you're less than fifteen minutes' walk (or a five minute cycle) from Chingford overground station. Your connection to the heart of the city, Liverpool Street is twenty seven minutes direct, while alternatively Walthamstow Central is just three stops and nine minutes away for a quick swap to the Victoria line. You also have plenty of off street parking, and drivers can be on the North Circular in a little over five minutes, and speeding out of London on the M11 soon after. Handy for Stansted Airport.
What else?
- Excellent schools are close at hand. You can find six rated 'Good' or 'Outstanding' by Ofsted less than a mile away on foot.
- With your vast wealth of outside space, there are plenty of opportunities for you to extend this impressive property still further (subject to the usual permissions) making this a home that will happily meet the needs of you and yours for years and years.
- Looking for a new local? The Royal Oak is just a five minute walk. Serving up great food and fine range of real ales and fine wines, this has been a local institution since 1920.

Explore our 'Charms of Chingford' pages for everything this picturesque part of East London has to offer.
Previously part of Essex, Chingford became an urban district in 1894, an early sign of what would prove to be increasingly close ties to the capital as improved transport links brought professionals flowing to the suburbs in search of bargains.
The local landscape is mostly sturdy post-war terraces and semi-detacheds, with pockets of more contemporary developments and plenty of parks, not to mention golf, cricket and country clubs.
Modest parades of local shops are scattered about the area, with most social life focused on the stretch of Station Road between Kings Head Hill and Chingford Golf Course.
Bordered by the wild green expanse of Epping Forest, and with Liverpool Street just twenty seven minutes by train, Chingford links Essex and the capital to this day, for the very best of both worlds.
