In need of some modernisation, this double fronted period home offers 3,375 square feet of accommodation over four floors. Located in the prestigious Counties Estate, this eight double bedroom period home offers incredible potential and further potential to extend (STPC).
The prestigious and highly sought after 'Counties Estate' is renowned for its characterful homes and peaceful setting within a conservation setting, and yet is within easy reach of all Wanstead's amenities including Snaresbrook and Wanstead stations (0.6 and 0.5 miles respectively) and vibrant High Street (0.4 miles) with its fantastic array of shops, cafes, and bars.
The home begins on approach with a beautiful double fronted façade, wide driveway and ornate, open porch. you enter the home via a central doorway into wide entrance hall, with two large receptions of approximately 20ft in depth either side; both of which retain high skirting, decorative central fireplaces and ornate plasterwork. Descending a short flight of stairs you gain access to a rear room overlooking the rear garden which is currently utilised as a sizeable study, and a contemporary kitchen leading to two further rooms offering pantry storage, utility space, downstairs W.C. There is opportunity to reconfigure the current layout by way of ground floor extension to create an amazing live-in family kitchen. Heading down yet another level you reach the basement floor offering a further two huge rooms of around 20ft in depth, one of which is currently used as a cinema room with lighting, electrics and bespoke fitted storage.
The first floor provides four double bedrooms - two smaller doubles and two exceptionally spacious larger double bedrooms. There is also a generous family bathroom with handy, additional W.C immediately outside. The second floor provides another four double bedrooms which again could be retained or re-imagined as a substantial master suite with dressing room and en-suite. There is also ample storage on this floor. The rear garden is mostly laid to lawn with a patio immediately outside offering entertaining space, with handy side access allowing for the easy removal of garden waste of storage of bikes.

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!
