Description

An impressive, spacious, four bedroom Edwardian family home, with two full size bathrooms and a ground floor WC. Your exceptional spaces have been enhanced further by a smart loft conversion, conservatory and large South facing rear garden. Your closest station is Wood Street, where you'll find direct Overground services to Walthamstow Central in two minutes, Hackney Downs in eleven minutes and Liverpool Street in twenty minutes. IF YOU LIVED HERE… Lovingly restored original floorboards span your elegant reception room. Looking up you'll see the original ceiling rose and cornicing, and a graceful fireplace takes centre stage. Light pours in from the bay window at the front, flowing through concertina doors into your sophisticated, spectacular kitchen. In here, large glossy floor tiles give way to smoky grey cabinets and stainless steel splashbacks, while a bright patio door leads you into the conservatory. This warm sunny space also has a handy powder blue cloakroom, a recessed utility area and direct access to your South East facing garden. Out in the garden you'll find an al fresco dining area, plenty of flower beds and a raised patio to the rear. Heading back inside and upstairs, you'll arrive in your principal double bedroom. Another bay window lights up the space and custom made wardrobes run down one entire wall. There's more purpose built storage through in your second double sleeper and in your third bedroom you'll find the same soft carpet underfoot as you did in the first two bedrooms. Across the landing there's your contemporary bathroom, with smoky grey tilework and decorative mosaic trim. You also have a heated chrome towel rail and shower over the tub. Taking the stairs up into your converted loft, you'll find another modern bathroom with a stroll in rainfall shower. Your fourth loft bedroom is an enormous, bright affair with a large window and huge skylight overhead. There's more of that soft oatmeal carpet and some handsome custom made wardrobes. As a final practical design feature, there's plenty of extra storage space in the eaves. The much loved, historic boating lake at Hollow Ponds, is just a ten minute stroll from your door. Hire a row boat and explore the waterways in the company of friendly ducks. There's plenty more to do down there if you wish to explore further too. Follow the path round the lake to the 1950s style Lakeside Diner, or walk a little further over to Leyton Flats and visit the swans on Eagle Pond. Leyton Leisure Centre is also only a ten minute walk away, where you'll find a large swimming pool with an aqua flume, a soft play area, a large modern gym, sauna and steam room.
