Located in the sought-after Wanstead Village area, known for its attractive tree-lined streets and characterful period homes, this semi-detached period cottage offers a peaceful village-style setting.
Wanstead High Street is just a short walk away (approximately 0.2 miles), offering a range of shops, cafés and local amenities. Both Wanstead and Snaresbrook Central Line stations are also within easy reach (around 0.3 miles and 0.5 miles respectively), providing convenient access into Central London. Nightingale Lane is only moments away (approximately 0.2 miles) and features a small parade of local shops, two popular neighbourhood pubs and a charming green.
Further transport links include regular bus routes and straightforward road connections to the M11, M25 and North Circular.
The property has been extended into the side return creating a more generous ground floor footprint, while still offering further potential to extend to the rear and into the loft (STPP). The original two reception rooms have been opened to form a bright and spacious through lounge, providing clearly defined living and dining areas while retaining a fireplace in the rear section of the room which acts as a focal point.
The rear kitchen is well supported by a substantial utility room, ideal for housing larger appliances such as a washing machine, tumble dryer and dishwasher. This keeps the kitchen itself focused on cooking, storage and entertaining. A convenient ground floor W.C. is also positioned within the utility space.
Upstairs, the first floor offers two well-proportioned double bedrooms, the principal of which spans the full width of the property and benefits from an extensive run of fitted wardrobes, providing excellent storage.
The spacious family bathroom easily accommodates a roll-top bath, twin sink vanity unit, W.C. and a large separate shower enclosure. Just outside the bathroom, a generous linen cupboard on the landing provides additional storage for towels and household essentials.
The loft has been fully boarded and fitted with power, along with twin skylights that provide natural light and ventilation. Currently accessed via a permanent staircase, the space offers excellent, easily accessible storage and presents clear potential for a future loft conversion (STPP).
To the rear, the garden is accessed via the utility room and is simply arranged with a patio leading onto a lawn, complemented by a raised side flower bed.
There is a shared, lockable side gate providing access to the side of the property, offering a practical space for secure bike storage. Subject to a reworking of the current side return layout, direct side access to the property could also be reinstated if desired.

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!
