3 bedroom terraced house

Guide Price £550,000 - £575,000. A sizable three bedroom town house for sale in the popular area of Leyton. There’s a spacious dual aspect lounge/dining room, a large kitchen, utility areas, three good sized bedrooms, a well presented family bathroom, uPVC double glazing throughout and gas fired central heating. Leyton offers exceptional travel links and amenities.

The attractive stone wall with wrought iron inserts and centrally located wrought iron gate provide a pleasing welcome to the paved front garden with diagonal path, which leads to the property’s entrance. There’s a useful porch built from stone to match the garden wall and uPVC door and glazing. Open the door into the porch and you’ll find useful storage space for shoes and coats. Next, pass through into the inner hallway and you’ll find the staircase to the first floor straight ahead, and the door into the reception room to your left.

Step into the reception room and you’ll immediately notice the clever layout. The room has been designed to maximise the living area and provides a clever combination of space and comfort by providing two distinct but connected areas.

To your left you’ll find the spacious lounge area, with its impressive bay window which maximises the northeast facing aspect of the property, complemented by glazing that runs almost to the full height of the room. There’s traditional coving, a large radiator, wall mounted uplighters and a centrally-mounted light fitting, which would be the perfect location for a stylish modern chandelier. With abundant wall space, this room would be the ideal setting to display your favourite art pieces. The bay window would be a fabulous spot for a reading nook, with a comfortable armchair and side table for your morning coffee or evening tipple. There’s plenty of space for large settees, an entertainment unit and a large bookcase. Decoration is simple in cream and white with a bold patterned carpet.

Now step through into the second reception space which is currently used as a dining room. Here you’ll find continuity of decoration and carpeting from the lounge area. A large southwest facing window provides abundant natural light and there’s a radiator under the window for those colder months. This space offers flexibility for multiple uses – just choose the configuration that best suits your lifestyle. There’s room for a large dining table and space to spare for a desk to work from home, or it could also be used as a second lounge area to accommodate an extended family, or even a playroom. There’s also a useful under stairs cupboard on your right, just as you access the kitchen through the attractive glazed door.

The kitchen is bright and surprisingly large for this type of property. There’s an extensive range of base and wall cabinets in a shaker style, with a classic two-tone cream colour scheme. The generous work surfaces are marble-effect laminate and include a large peninsula breakfast bar. The gas hob has an extractor above, there’s an eye level integrated oven, room for a large fridge-freezer and plumbed-in space for a dishwasher or washing machine. Floor tiles are white and the walls are fully tiled in a combination of white and charcoal – a sophisticated space without doubt. At the far end of the kitchen is a very useful walk-in pantry, which also houses the recently installed gas combi boiler.

The door at the far end of the kitchen takes you into the spacious utility area, which currently comprises of three distinct rooms, all of which benefit from natural light. To your right, you’ll find a downstairs WC – an excellent feature for busy family life, and there’s also a shower room with a wash hand basin and a shower tray. Currently used for storage, this room could easily be brought back to its original use or could be re-purposed as a fantastic laundry room. The main utility area offers scope for additional storage, a child’s playroom or a dedicated study area. Alternatively, this room could be opened up into the shower room to provide a single larger space, creating a lovely, fresh second bathroom.

Finally on the ground floor, take the half-glazed door out to the low maintenance, fully paved garden. Being southwest facing, this area benefits from evening sun and would be the perfect oasis to enjoy an end-of-day drink or to entertain family and friends. 

Back inside and through the kitchen and dining room, we return to the inner hallway. Let’s head up the stairs now to the split-level landing with its attractive turned wood newel posts, balusters and handrail…

Straight ahead, you’ll find bedroom three, which looks out over the rear garden. There’s room here for a double bed, bedside cabinets, a wardrobe and additional storage. Decoration is a modern combination of grey and white, along with a light fawn carpet. There’s also a large radiator to guarantee a cosy night’s sleep.

Return to the landing and to the right is the family bathroom. Here you’ll find a modern suite comprising of a bath with overhead shower and a large glass shower screen, plus a well designed WC and hand basin vanity unit, offering storage below the basin and a deep full-width shelf. There’s also a wall-mounted cabinet to match, a wall mirror, a window for ventilation and natural light, and a combined towel rail and radiator. The walls are fully tiled with large rectangular, stone effect ceramic tiles, set in an attractive running bond pattern.

Climb the additional few steps up to the second level of the landing and to your right you’ll find bedroom two. This room has cream coloured built-in furniture designed to accommodate a bed within, along with wardrobe space to both sides and full width storage above. There’s a window looking out to the rear garden with a radiator situated below. Decoration is in a pleasant combination of cream and white with a blue carpet, but there’s plenty of opportunity to put your own mark on this space.

Back onto the landing, you’ll note a useful built-in storage cupboard before entering the final door, which takes you into the main bedroom. This is a large bright room spanning the full width of the house, with a number of original features and plentiful natural light. There’s a window which aligns with the front door below and a large bay window to match the ground façade. This room has ornate coving, deep skirting boards and an original picture rail – beautifully full of character. There’s built-in furniture comprising of bedside cabinets with display shelves above, space for a large double bed, a run of wardrobes and a dressing table. The furniture is in white with a dark cream trim, which is complemented by the walls which are dark cream below the picture rail and white above. The carpet is also dark cream to complement the decoration and there’s a large radiator below the bay window. The size of the room allows for additional furniture should you wish to add your own touches, and the bay window would be an ideal location for a luxurious place to relax, such as a chaise longue.
