Property for sale in London E11, 5 Bedroom

An immaculately finished, impressively spacious and ingeniously developed five bedroom family home mere moments from the wild blue and green space of Epping Forest and Hollow Ponds. Expertly laid out over three floors, Design & Decor is an artful blend of contemporary style and vintage features.

Your South-West facing rear garden is an impressive sixty foot long, a lovingly landscaped mix of brick patio, pathways, zero-maintenance Tru lawn and thriving beds. There're plenty of little nooks and crannies, space for barbecues and it's all nicely secluded behind high timber fencing and mature screening greenery.

If you lived here...

You'll be stretching out in more than 1200 square feet of impeccably designed living space, with your lengthy through lounge alone coming in at a capacious 260 square feet. Dual aspect, with rich engineered oak underfoot, lovingly preserved original cornicing overhead, plantation shutters on the windows and a pair of gorgeous vintage ebony hearths, it's a wonderful blend of the classic and contemporary.

The kitchen/diner's another marvelous hosting space; a shade under 200 square feet with more engineered hardwood floorboards stretching the entire, impressive length. Worktops either side are timber, you have metro tile splashbacks and a Dublin sink. The dining area at the end has plenty of natural light thanks to the floor to ceiling windows and patio doors leading out to the garden.

Upstairs, your first bedroom is a generous double of 150 square feet. A real vintage masterpiece, you have original timber floorboards underfoot (painted white to accentuate the sense of space) and a charming pewter hearth and mantel. Bedroom two is another double while bedroom three is a generous, sixty square foot single ideal for a child or home office. The floor's completed by the smart family bathroom.

Head up onto the second floor and you have another generous single bedroom of seventy square feet and your 180 penthouse master bedroom. There's a large skylight over the bed, plus a Juliet balcony at the other end, hardwood floors underfoot and a stylish set of fitted storage units. The en suite shower room is every bit as smart as you'd expect, with metro tiling from floor to ceiling, sandstone underfoot and a heated towel rail.

The wild, wide open greenery of Epping Forest is less than ten minutes walk away, perfect for morning jogs, afternoon picnics and evening strolls. It's also home to Hollow Ponds (made famous by local boy Damon Albarn), tranquil blue waters with row boats for hire. Expect ducks.

A word from the owner....
"We have loved living in our home on this quiet road. Not directly overlooked at front or back, we can enjoy the privacy and tranquility of the property and beautiful garden, whilst still being just a short walk (or even shorter bus journey/ bike ride!) from Leytonstone, Walthamstow Village, and Wanstead and a 12 minute walk to the Central Line, so we are never short of things to do.
The views from the loft bedrooms are amazing and so relaxing to look out on when working from home.
Our eldest daughter absolutely loves her 'secret hideout' treehouse at the back of the garden, which is both girls' favourite place, alongside the open spaces of Hollow Ponds and the woods which are just at the end of the road. The house has been perfect to bring both girls up from birth, with wonderful nurseries and schools nearby and a friendly neighbourhood."
