The façade of this attractive Edwardian home has retained its original character with a double-height bay window and mouldings. A small front garden leads to a covered porch with period floor and wall tiles and an original part-glazed front door. The generous hallway is decorated in soft cream with an attractive modern carpet that extends up to the first floor.
The first reception is a good size and benefits from the grand bay window, finished with light grey walls and soft fawn carpet. Down the hallway, the second reception offers a flexible living space and looks out towards the rear. At the end of the hallway, the cosy third reception features another bay window and flows through straight into the kitchen with no dividing wall, providing a fabulous open-plan family space.
The stylish, contemporary kitchen has a good range of gloss-white cabinets and drawers, with dark granite worktops and matching backsplashes. A handy built-in bottle opener has been fitted beneath one cabinet, and a magnetic strip has been placed above one of the work surfaces to keep your kitchen knives and small metal utensils easily within reach. There’s an integrated oven with a gas hob and an extractor, along with space for an American-style fridge freezer. A large window looks out to the rear garden, and a side door leads to the side extension, which is configured as a utility room with space for a washing machine, a tumble dryer, and storage.
Accessed from the utility room, the downstairs wet room is fully tiled and includes a WC, a pedestal basin, and a shower, offering a useful extra facility for a busy family. The utility room also opens onto the secure paved garden, which is low-maintenance and ideal for relaxing, playing, and entertaining in the warmer months.
To the first floor, a large landing provides access to the four bedrooms and family bathroom. The fully tiled bathroom has a three-piece suite comprising a WC, a pedestal basin, and a P-shaped bath with a glazed screen and a shower above. The space is finished with a mirrored cabinet and a heated towel rail.
Bedroom four is a small single room that would make a perfect home office or nursery. Bedroom three is a small double room with a bay window, making the room feel bright and airy. Bedroom two is a good-sized double room looking out to the rear garden and includes useful built-in storage.
The spacious main bedroom lies at the front of the property and spans the entire width, creating a generous bedroom with room for a comfy double bed, wardrobes, and additional furniture. There are two windows, including another bay window, providing an ideal spot for a dressing table or a relaxing reading nook.

Sellers commentsAfter 25 years, we are selling our family home in a quiet, friendly and diverse area of Leytonstone, as our kids have now left home and we have decided to move out of London to open a narrowboat training centre. The property is 5 mins on foot from main bus routes, Overground, shops, a gym, swimming, soft play facilities, and play parks; 10 mins to Wanstead Flats or Langthorne Park for dog walking, jogging, etc.; 15 mins to Central Line. Local restaurants and pubs include the excellent Leytonstone Spice, Red Lion and North Star, and the MattCup Roastery is a lovely coffee spot.We have installed a downstairs wet room with pet care and mobility issues in mind (although the property overall is not ideal for a wheelchair). We have recently decorated and recarpeted the high traffic areas (upstairs and downstairs halls, two bedrooms and one of the receptions) and carried out minor decorative repairs to the other receptions; however, any buyer may wish to redecorate the remaining two bedrooms and bathroom.
