4 Bedroom Terraced House for sale in Matcham Road, Leytonstone, London, E11 3LF

Guide Price £725,000 - £775,000. This beautifully presented mid-terrace four bedroom house in Leytonstone is the perfect family home. Benefitting from the local overground station and Leytonstone tube both within an easy walk – plus Leytonstone High Road just two streets away – it has all the links, amenities and essentials you need right on your doorstep.

Approaching from the street, you’ll note the small paved front yard and ornate entranceway surround as you enter the covered porch area leading to the black front door. As you enter, you’re received by a well-lit hallway with neutral decor, new beautifully-tiled mosaic flooring and feature plasterwork corbels.  

The first door to your right from the hallway is the first reception room which contains a huge bay window at the front and beautiful engineered wooden flooring which continues throughout the ground floor. This large family space offers plenty of room for a large three piece suite or similar, a coffee table, entertainments unit plus any bookshelves or display cases you may desire. A light and neutrally decorated space, your own personal items will fit right into place – or you can quickly make your own mark with a bit of fresh colour to the walls or simply some bright accent wall-art and soft furnishings.

Back into the hallway and taking the second door on the left, you’ll enter the incredibly spacious kitchen/dining area that stretches all the way to the rear of the property. Firstly, we have the large dining space which would work as a seamless extension of the kitchen for family meals or entertaining and

socialising – simply add a large table and comfy chairs, a sideboard and perhaps a cocktail cabinet. Alternatively, it would make the perfect family ‘chill-out’ room, a play area for the kids or a hobby and games room. With its large open archway into the kitchen, it’s the ideal space to keep younger children under your watchful eye while you prepare packed lunches or evening meals! There’s also an under-stairs built-in storage cupboard in this area, perfect for keeping your vacuum cleaner and other items you’d like to keep hidden away from sight.

Heading into the kitchen itself, you’ll immediately note that it has room enough for a good sized dining table or even a small breakfast table – freeing up adjoining area for the options highlighted above if you prefer to maximise the available space. It’s a beautifully planned kitchen with French doors leading into the rear garden, plus a further window at the sink and two skylights providing masses of natural light which floods right through to the open-plan dining area. The white gloss fitted base and wall units give the kitchen a clean contemporary look, while offering a fantastic amount of storage space. There’s an integrated hob and oven with extractor hood and the splash-back is tiled in grey square tiles, which add a beautiful balance between the white units and black worktops. There’s room for all your white-goods and the engineered wooden floor provides an easy-to-clean solution for a busy family kitchen.

Cleverly concealed within the separating archway between these two spaces is a handy downstairs toilet – an essential in a larger, busy household. Tiled in large, marble-effect grey tiles with a mosaic detail around the wall, there’s also a mirror, a small sink built into a modern vanity unit with storage, plus a heated towel rail. 

Through the French doors at the rear of the kitchen, you’ll find the garden which measures at a very generous 11.7 metres. The garden is mostly paved with borders to the sides and top, and is surrounded by fencing and a rear wall to keep the space private. The borders are currently empty, giving you the option to pick some low maintenance shrubbery or beautiful blooming flowers, to brighten up your outdoor haven, or you could take advantage of the blank space and completely reinvent it to your needs. The size will happily accommodate for a relaxing adult area - with table and chairs or a rattan sofa set - plus some play equipment for the kids.  

Back into the house, let’s head back to the hallway and up the newly carpeted stairs to the first floor, where you’ll find three of this property’s four bedrooms. The first bedroom on this floor through the door right in front, lying to the rear of the property, with a sloping ceiling and window overlooking the garden. A good sized double room, it would be perfectly suitable as a comfy bedroom for a child or teenager, and also lend itself well to use as a home office or study, a cosy guest room or a nursery.

The next room you’ll see to your left is the newly fitted shower room. Fully tiled from floor to ceiling with a darker slate grey on the floor and a lighter grey on the walls, it offers a well-configured design to make best use of the space. There’s a toilet unit, a vanity unit with sink and a curved corner shower unit – smart, well presented and easy to keep clean.  

Heading out of the bathroom and up two additional steps, the next bedroom to your left hand side offers another good sized space which would work well as a child or teenager’s bedroom, or a generous guest room. With space enough for a large double bed, wardrobe and dressing table, it’s another well lit and neutral room with magnolia walls and the same new, lush grey carpet that has been laid throughout this floor.

Located to the front aspect of the house is the biggest of the bedrooms on this floor – an impressive space with two large windows throwing in plenty of natural light. A large room that stretches the full width of the house, it could easily accommodate a comfy double or king-sized bed with plenty of room for the wardrobes and additional furniture you need to make it home.  

As you exit this bedroom, ascend the staircase opposite and head up to the beautiful loft space, which has been cleverly converted into a quiet hideaway from the rest of the house. Unlike more restricted plans, this property benefits from having undergone a dual conversion with the adjoining property, which allowed for the complete removal of the chimney breasts. In turn, this has created a wider useable floor space than can normally be achieved – so you get even more for your investment.

The large bedroom here is bathed with sunlight thanks to dual skylights and a further window, and has been designed with a large concealed storage area in the eaves, accessed via a small door in the wall. Benefitting from the same newly laid grey carpet and light, neutral decor, there’s plenty of room for a large luxurious bed, wardrobes, chest of drawers, a desk or dressing table – whatever would suit your personal requirements. To add to the sense of escapism this gorgeous space offers from the hustle and bustle on the lower floors, this converted space also comes with a large, beautifully fitted bathroom. Complete with an end-fill bath, large separate shower cubicle, toilet and sink, this room is decorated to match the shower room below, with floor-to-ceiling grey tiling and that same smart, sophisticated and tidy finish.

With central heating throughout, some fresh touches and the original features in the entrance hallway, this is a modern property with a splash of the traditional. The ceilings are high giving it a roomy feel and the wooden flooring and new carpets give you the perfect foundations from which to build your perfect new home. Unoccupied and on the market chain-free, this gorgeous family home it just waiting to be snapped up.  

Location-wise, this four bedroom home has lots to offer too, with easy access to dental and health practices, local pharmacies, and the nearby Buxton School which is rated “Good” by Ofsted. The independent Leytonstone Tavern is literally around the corner and highly rated on Trip Advisor, and there are plenty of other bars, restaurants, cafes and takeaways catering for all tastes. Nearby Leytonstone High Road is laden with both independent and high street shops, and there are supermarkets and leisure facilities all within easy reach. For fresh air and green spaces, Wanstead Flats and Wanstead Park are both within walking distance.
