Positioned on the tree lined and popular Chester Road in central Wanstead, this period home is moments from Wanstead Central line station and Wanstead High Street (0.3 miles) with large, leafy parks and a range of independent shops, cafés and restaurants. There are a range of schools within walking distance, the closes of which is Wanstead High (0.1 Miles) Followed by Wanstead Church School (0.5 Miles), Our Lady Of Lourdes (0.8 Miles), Nightingale Primary School (1.1 Miles) and Snaresbrook Primary School (1.2 Miles).
From the landscaped, South facing rear garden to the expertly refurbished and extended interior, this home has been beautifully renovated and refurbished from tip-to-toe. Benefiting from re-wiring, a new boiler, 4 Meter rear extension and loft conversion there is a lot of space on offer as well as the added peace of mind that the utilities have been renewed – something not generally found in an older home.
Immediately upon entering the home the high-quality finish of the refurbishment is apparent. The porcelain, wood effect flooring effortlessly blends with an array of original features that have been carefully replaced or renewed, including the entrance door, carved , panelling and cornicing. Like all the rooms on offer, the large formal sitting room provides plenty of floor space to comfortably accommodate a good sized furniture suite, whilst also retaining beautiful features in addition to newly added plantation shutters and industrial style radiators.
As you move through to the rear of the property this is where the clever design and forethought of the sellers really comes into play. The favourable South facing aspect ensures natural light floods through the large skylights, side window and bi-fold doors throughout the year whilst, in the colder months, the triple glazed bi-fold doors work alongside the underfloor heating to provide a warm and comfortable room. An impressive open space, the area can be re-imagined in a number of ways through careful placement of furniture and currently offers a zone for dining, working from home and casual dining and socialising thanks to the large island and breakfast bar. The Schmidt fitted kitchen offers effortlessly sleek design alongside excellent storage solutions, with integrated Siemens appliances including steam and electric oven, induction hob, dishwasher and fridge/freezer and Quooker boiling hot water tap. The utility room is easily accessed and closed off by a hidden casement door and provides a further sink, larder storage and place to close off the noisier utility items such as washing machine and tumble dryer. There is also a handy W.C with striking feature wallpaper and access to a cellar from the ground floor.
To the first floor there are three double bedrooms, all of which retain original fireplaces, and a large family bathroom. The second floor has been converted to offer a wonderful principal suite with the main bedroom area offering plenty of floorspace and a Juliette balcony taking in unobscured views thanks to an exterior glass balustrade. A cleverly concealed dressing area lies behind the bed and further doors in this area provide access to a generous eaves storage area. The en-suite shower room has a distinctly industrial vibe with natural slate lining the walls and, like the family bathroom, benefits from under floor heating.
Externally the plot fans out to the rear providing a larger than average garden area. The simple but effective design of the garden provides seating and entertaining space immediately as you exit the house and to the rear pergola where the last of the evening sun falls. A sunken trampoline and play space in the opposite corner of the garden is perfect for the kids with large central lawn and side beds. A wide side access allows for the easy removal of garden waste, rubbish or bikes as well as additional space for storage.

About this agent
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!
