Just a short walk from Wanstead Flats, the Overground at Wanstead Park, and Crossrail at Forest Gate, this spacious and contemporary two-bedroom house lies in a quiet residential area close to several excellent pubs and bars.
Outside, a bright London Stock frontage lies behind the front patio, leading through a part-glazed door into the main living area. A doormat has been fitted into the wooden laminate flowing past a central staircase into the dining area, while a large bay window and white coved walls bring in lots of light. Shelving in the alcoves beside a feature fireplace with a vintage surround and Mexican tiling provides extra storage.
To the rear, a big window facing the garden and stylish linear pendants illuminate the dining area. The kitchen lies just beyond, warmed by underfloor heated patterned tiles complementing the cheerful yellow walls.
Fitted in 2023, the kitchen has a good range of glossy white cabinetry with wooden tops and Claybrook tiles in a basket-weave pattern. You’ll find a deep ceramic sink below the side window, an oven with a gas hob, an integrated Bosch fridge-freezer, and space for a dishwasher.
There’s also a Hotpoint washer-dryer in the hall leading to the garden and a spot-lit bathroom, where heated Mandarin Stone tiles and olive-green walls offset a bath with an overhead shower and a modern basin and toilet beneath the window.
Upstairs, you’ll discover two neutrally decorated and carpeted doubles to the front and rear, with coved ceiling and fitted blinds to the windows. Back downstairs, head outside into the sunny south-facing garden to find a paved side return and terrace leading to a long lawn enclosed by fencing and neighbouring trees. A pretty flower border runs along one side, joining a gravelled and wood-chipped working area with a shed to the rear.
