Thorpe Road, Forest Gate, E7

Petty Son & Prestwich are excited to offer to market this exceptionally characterful four bedroom period terraced home with South/Easterly facing garden, garden room with W.C and two bathrooms, in the quickly evolving Forest Gate area.

A mere 0.2 Miles from the popular arches eateries and Wanstead tap bar on Winchelsea Road, 0.3 miles from the picturesque Jubilee Pond with its play area and large expanse of open fields/surrounding parkland and only a short walk from Forest Gate and Wanstead Park Station, the latter of which enjoys Cross Rail links (0.7 and 0.6 miles respectively), you will find this picturesque, four bedroom Victorian home. This area in Forest Gate is also part of the Low Traffic Neighbourhood Scheme with Waltham Forest & Newham Council and enjoys a close knit community with a street party held for the Jubilee and another planned for May s coronation. Good schools are also plentiful, with Buxton School (0.2 Miles/Ofsted good), Odessa Infants School (0.5 Miles/ Ofsted good) and Forest Gate Community School (0.6 Miles/ Ofsted outstanding) all within easy walking distance.Inside and out, this exceptional home has been beautifully restored, starting with a splendid frontage sporting exposed brickwork, quarry tile mosaic entrance path and striking stained glass doorway. Carefully extended to provide bright and airy ground floor living, balanced with well-proportioned first and second floor accommodation, the home has been thoughtfully designed, including extras like acoustic mineral wool insulation between floors dampening sounds whilst allowing the property to breathe. Entering through a retained entrance passage, the two original reception rooms have been opened up to provide a large open/plan living space, complete with exposed wooden flooring, a sash window and wall mouldings; features that run throughout the home. Seamlessly bespoked into the understairs area and immediately into the hallway upon entry, floor to ceiling storage cupboards allows for the storage of coats, shoes and bags, leaving the large double reception free of clutter. Glass double doors provide access to the sleek kitchen/diner to the rear, with an oversized rear door and large skylight making the most of the favourable South/Easterly facing. Making the most of the space on offer, the c-shaped kitchen design utilises the space well, balancing a good amount of storage space alongside a range of integrated appliances. A handy W.C is also available from the ground floor. The first floor offers two double bedrooms and a strikingly beautiful family bathroom, entered via a small lobby where two large cupboards provide plenty of storage space. The second floor boasts those extras you expect in a home like this - a large skylight in the landing area and skylight in the stylish shower room to maximise natural light, in addition to a huge, oversized picture window in the back bedroom creating a striking focal point. To the rear, a favourable South/easterly facing garden gives you the best of the morning and afternoon sun, with a gravelled footpath leading to a fully insulated studio to the rear. The studio offers the ideal home-office space, fitted with a W.C, sink with cupboard space (ideal tea making area) plenty of power sockets and electric radiator - a huge benefit for those wanting a bit more separation between home and work life whilst working from home. The property is offered to market with no onward chain.EPC Rating: C71Council Tax Band: C
