House For Sale £650,000
On The Market Chain-Free, We’Re Pleased To Present This Four Bedroom House In Forest Gate.
Guide Price £650,000 - £700,000. On the market chain-free, we’re pleased to present this four bedroom house in Forest Gate, set on a quiet, tree-lined, residential street in this popular East End suburb. With great commuter links, close access to beautiful green spaces, this property has plenty of potential for putting your own personal stamp on it.
This four bedroom house lies within an attractive row of terrace cottages built in traditional yellow London stock brick. The charming façade features uPVC double glazed windows with a leaded design, a brick arched porch and a lovely bay window. There’s a small front garden, affording privacy from the street, which has room for bin storage and, with the simple addition of some well-placed pots, will offer a wonderful welcome to visitors.
Step through the part-glazed front door and you find yourself in the bright hallway which leads all the way through to the rear of the property and provides access to the stairs to the first floor. There’s a practical slate-effect tiled floor and a large central heating radiator to guarantee a warm welcome. Decoration is simple, with cream painted walls and white woodwork.
The first door to your right takes you into the front reception room. This room benefits from the bay window – which with its original wood panelling, could form the focal point of a stunning interior design upgrade, making this a cosy and stylish living space. Flooring is oak-effect laminate which could easily be enhanced by the addition of some bright, stylish rugs. There’s extensive wall space, which would make the perfect back drop for some stunning artwork or a feature wall of your favourite eye-catching wallpaper. There’s room enough for a cosy sofa and your chosen configuration of furniture, allowing you to lay out this reception room to suit your own lifestyle requirements.
Return to the hallway and your next door on the right leads you into the rear reception room. This room looks out to the garden and would make a lovely dining room, second sitting room, office or playroom. With its view onto the garden and the symmetry of its position within the room, the window would make a perfect location for a study area, and you could perhaps add some built-in storage to either side, for a stylish and practical addition to this space. Flooring is oak-effect laminate, a feature carrying through many of the rooms to create a nice flow. Current decoration follows the common design scheme across much of the property, with cream painted walls and white trim. Ready to move into, this space also provides a blank slate which could easily be given a more contemporary twist with a fresh colour scheme.
Back into the hallway now and continue through a door straight ahead into another small hallway, which gives access to the rest of the ground floor where the layout has been cleverly designed to incorporate a ground floor shower room. Supplementing the first floor house bathroom, this is an excellent addition for a large and busy modern family. There’s a glass corner shower cubicle with curved sliding doors, a washbasin with storage below and a low flush WC, all in white. The room has a large, frosted glass, double-glazed window and there are floor-to-ceiling white tiles, set in an attractive running bond pattern. The floor uses the same slate effect tiles as the hallway, which provides continuity of design, while making an attractive contrast with the rest of the decoration in the room. A mirrored, wall-mounted cabinet and heated towel rail complete this well designed space.
Back into the rear hall and on into the kitchen, which is surprisingly large for the type of property. Here you’ll find an array of beech-effect base and wall cabinets and drawers, with modern chrome handles and dark, granite-effect work surfaces. There’s a stainless steel sink with mixer tap below the window, a built-in oven with inset gas hob above and an extractor hood. Black gloss tiles form a splash-back above the work surface and more slate-effect tiles have been used on the floor – the look is finished with rich dark teal blue walls. With some simple reconfiguration, this space could incorporate a dining area which would offer lovely views out to the garden through the large uPVC French windows – a lovely addition that flood the room with natural light.
The French windows take you into a good-sized secluded garden, which is fenced to both sides and not overlooked to the rear. As you step out, there’s a small canopy above with a flagged terrace extending out into the centre of the garden and around to the side return. There are extensive borders with some mature shrubs. Being south-east facing, it benefits from the evening sun, so with a little bit of tlc and creative thinking, this will be a fabulous space for relaxing and outdoor entertaining. A summer BBQ with family and friends perhaps?
Back through the house now, we head via the hallway and up the stairs to the first floor. The staircase itself has a traditional carved newel post, handrail and balustrade painted in white. These are matched on the large landing, which has been cleverly designed to incorporate a staircase to the loft room and useful storage cupboards. Flooring is oak-effect laminate, which is also used throughout the bedrooms, and there’s another large radiator to ensure that the whole house remains warm and cosy.
The first door at the top of the stairs leads to bedroom three, which overlooks the side garden. This would make an ideal child’s bedroom or nursery, with room for your chosen furniture and floor space left over for a play rug. This room could also be used as a study, with its quiet location to the rear of the property. The room also has a large radiator and uPVC double glazed window.
The next door along the landing takes you into bedroom two. Slightly larger than bedroom three, this could be used as a small double, or a spacious single room. There are views out to the rear garden and beyond through the large window. Once again, decoration is simple with potential for an easy re-design to convert this into a stylish and comfortable haven.
Further along the landing to the left, you’ll find the main house bathroom, furnished with a bathtub, glass shower screen and wall mounted shower attachment, a large hand basin and WC. Decorated in line with the ground floor shower room, there are white wall tiles and smart slate-effect floor tiles. There’s also a wall mounted storage cabinet, large mirror above the hand basin and heated towel rail.
The final room on this level is the main bedroom. Spanning the full width of the house and having twin, symmetrically placed windows, this is a comfortable double room, with space for a comfy double bed, bedside cabinets, wardrobes and additional storage. The abundant natural light really affords a sense of space, which could be enhanced with the addition of some well planned design touches and decoration - such as a large mirror - well-placed artwork and the introduction of a modern colour palette. There’s also a large central heating radiator. Whatever your personal taste, you can quickly transform this space to suit.
Finally, back onto the landing and up the cleverly designed stairs to the property’s fourth bedroom. This room could be used as an additional bedroom, study or kid’s playroom. There’s a large skylight, making this a lovely bright space and a large radiator to ensure comfort throughout the year. Eaves storage and even further storage to the right of the door make this a useful addition to the property, with many potential uses. The room is simply decorated with white walls and woodwork and there’s oak-effect laminate on the floor. A handy extra room tucked away at the top of the house that you could purpose according to your lifestyle needs.
