A detached home sitting on a substantial plot, Petty Son & Prestwich are excited to offer this four double bedroom property, offering 2,533 square feet of living space, two detached garages, carriage driveway, huge receptions and swimming pool.

Positioned at the beginning in the highly regarded Draycot Road, this expansive residence boasts an enviable location, with Wanstead Central Line Station and Wanstead High Street a short 0.3 mile walk across the neighbouring George Green, in addition to excellent schooling and picturesque parks. Though in need of modernisation due to water damage, this home offers undeniably exciting potential for those wanting a combination of things arguably incredibly difficult to find in one property, with this detached home offering a substantial and wide plot, two detached garages, carriage driveway, swimming pool and copious potential to develop further by way of extension or significant re-modelling of the cavernous rooms within, including a main reception of 36'3 in depth (566 square feet).

All rooms on the ground floor lead from the large, central entrance hall starting with the main reception which spans the entire depth of the home front to back, formal dining room, kitchen with separate utility room, ground floor W.C and separate study to the front. Ascending the stairs to the first floor a deep landing leads to four expansive double bedrooms, the principal of which offers 230 square feet of space and leads to an equally impressive en-suite. The family bathroom accommodates a full bathroom suite including separate shower, bath, bidet, W.C and basin, with the loft offering ample storage space or potential to create accommodation.

The rear garden can be accessed from either side of the property by ironwork gates and currently offers a covered pool with surrounding lawn edged by established trees, shrubs and patio, with plenty of room to extend the home without compromising too heavily on garden size. As so few homes are still available within the area in such sought after roads on such substantial plots, this property is a truly rare find and it is impossible to say if or when similar homes offering such exceptional potential will come available again.

Places of interest

    For well over a century Petty Son and Prestwich has had a long and successful history in Wanstead and the surrounding area.  The firm was founded in Leytonstone in 1908 by C. Petty, a locally renowned builder, under the style of Petty & Son. The company was then run by his son Charles, a chartered surveyor. Petty and Son quickly grew in both size and reputation and was soon to become Petty Son & Prestwich when Harry Prestwich entered the partnership, offering services in surveying, estate agency and auctioneering. The Wanstead Office was opened in 1912.  Our continued success stems from reputation and recommendation and through this, and good old fashioned hard work, it has allowed us to expand and open a branch in the heart of Buckhurst Hill. Mirroring the company’s ethos to work collectively, our Buckhurst Hill office provide the same tailor-made services to all our clients, both new and established. Situated at the top of Queens Road, the team offer the independent and reliable advice that has been our hallmark in Wanstead for so many decades past.  Our current team, who between them boast a combined experience of more than 150 years, offer a wide-range of competitive services that include sales, lettings, property management, financial services, refurbishment and development as well as our established survey department.  We are proud to maintain an expansive and thorough knowledge of the market and with the opening of our Buckhurst Hill branch we are able to offer our bespoke service from the exciting, emerging London areas of Forest Gate, Leytonstone and the ever-popular Wanstead, through to the heart of Epping Forest to such areas as stylish Loughton and the picturesque Theydon Bois. We firmly believe that with our expertise and passion combined with the old-fashioned values of reliability, trustworthiness and commitment, we can continue to deliver to our clients across east London and west Essex an unparalleled service into the next century!
