Spacious three bedroom house for sale in Leytonstone, with two reception rooms, large bedrooms, garden and more
A spacious three bedroom house for sale in the sought-after area of Leytonstone, close to exceptional local amenities and transport links. In need of renovation, the property’s wonderful period features and excellent layout offers plenty of potential to be transformed into a stylish family home.
Set on a no-through access residential street, the property’s façade offers an insight into the architectural details found throughout, with a full height bay window and attractive brick and stone details. A small front garden leads to a covered porch, with the original part-glazed front door opening into a large, bright hallway with intricate ceiling mouldings, original floorboards and a grand staircase with carved balusters. There’s also access to the useful storage cellar.
The main through-reception room offers deep coving, a picture rail and a beautifully formed arch which separates the room into two distinct areas – with a south-west facing bay window at one end and a glazed door leading to the garden at the other. A bright and airy blank space ready for your own vision. Down the hall, a second reception features another bay window and more original floorboards. This would make a fabulous kitchen-diner, with potential to incorporate the original kitchen at the rear. A handy WC, currently accessed from outside, could also be updated to provide a ground floor cloakroom.
The good-sized rear garden includes mature shrubs, a large lawned area and a timber shed, with the side-return currently housing a glazed porch, which could be replaced or removed as required.
The split-level landing includes built-in storage, with the lower level accommodating the family bathroom and the first of three double bedrooms – which features another bay window, overlooking the rear garden.
The upper level includes a double bedroom with built-in storage and the impressive main bedroom, which spans the full width of the property and includes the upper portion of the main bay window, plus a second window, to provide wonderful natural light. A small fireplace and an original built-in cupboard also feature.While this large family home requires new plumbing and electrics, a full kitchen and bathroom refurbishment, and replastering throughout, it offers a fantastic opportunity for buyers with a keen eye for investment.
The property is situated in the sought after residential area of Leytonstone, with easy access to a range of local shops and hospitality businesses, including the Heathcote and Star and the Unity Café. The popular Francis Road area is close by and Leytonstone High Road is only a few minutes’ walk with its wealth of local independent outlets, supermarkets and retail parks.
