IF YOU LIVED HERE…
The restored London Stock brick façade exudes understated elegance, its warm tones repointed in lime render and framed by crisp white detailing. A solid wood front door with brass fixtures sits beneath a brick arch, softly lit by a French brass lantern. Wisteria, David Austin roses and Limelight hydrangeas climb the garden wall, adding colour and charm to this beautifully composed entrance.
Stepping inside, the hallway immediately conveys a sense of refinement. Bespoke panelling traces the walls, enhanced by herringbone oak parquet and an ornate ceiling rose that catches the light. This gentle grandeur continues through the connected living spaces. The front reception, drenched in Farrow & Ball’s Cardamom, feels rich and inviting, with bespoke bookcases, an oak mantelpiece and a brass chandelier. The second reception flows naturally from it, a calm, atmospheric room with fluted fireplace detailing, intricate mouldings and soft light from the sash window, an ideal spot for quiet conversation or relaxed dining.
Beyond this, the kitchen brings a sense of warmth and character, blending traditional craftsmanship with bold design. Hand-painted cabinetry in deep Brinjal pairs beautifully with solid oak worktops and Devol brass detailing. A Butler sink sits beneath a row of windows, while French doors open onto the garden, where limestone setts meander among seasonal and evergreen planting including salvia, verbena and alliums, bringing colour and movement across the seasons.
Upstairs, the landing is adorned with panelling and warm Off White tones, leading to two beautifully appointed bedrooms and an exquisitely finished bathroom. The principal bedroom, colour-drenched in Invisible Green, feels deeply restful with bespoke panelling and fitted wardrobes, while the rear bedroom offers gentle elegance with Farrow & Ball wallpaper and warm claret joinery. The bathroom is a sanctuary of classic luxury, with marble checkerboard flooring, a clawfoot tub, antique brass fittings and a walk-in shower finished in glossy green tiles that catch the light softly, adding depth and subtle elegance, creating a space designed for indulgent calm and everyday pleasure.
Moments from the open expanse of Wanstead Flats, the location offers an easy blend of green space and city living. Mornings might begin with a coffee from Tamping Grounds before a peaceful walk across the heath, surrounded by wide skies and winding paths. Nearby Francis Road brings a touch of village charm, lined with favourites like Yardarm, Marmelo and The Northcote Arms, and a weekend market that hums with local life. For everyday convenience, Leytonstone High Road sits close by with shops and cafés for all the essentials.
