About this property
No Chain
In Need of Modernisation
Three Bedrooms
First Floor Bathroom
Lovely rear garden
Offered with no onward chain, this three-bedroom property is brimming with potential for transformation. Set across two floors, the layout includes a bathroom upstairs serving all bedrooms, making it a practical base for redesign. The home is in need of modernisation, offering the perfect blank canvas for those with vision. Outside, a generously sized rear garden adds to the appeal—ideal for creating a landscaped retreat or extending the living space, subject to the usual permissions. A rare chance to reimagine a classic home to suit your own taste and lifestyle.
If you lived here...
The ground floor begins with a wide hallway offering a clear line of sight through to the rear of the home. A staircase rises to the first floor, with a useful cupboard tucked beneath, and the ample proportions hint at the home's scope throughout. At the front, the first reception room features a classic bay window that draws in natural light. It’s a well-sized space with traditional dimensions, ready to be reworked as part of a more contemporary layout.
To the rear, the second reception room opens directly onto the garden via sliding doors. Together, the two receptions offer excellent scope to be combined into one expansive living and dining area. The adjacent kitchen also leads to the garden and could be opened up or extended, subject to planning consent. With the right vision, the entire rear of the house could be transformed into a striking and functional heart of the home.
The south-west facing garden extends to approximately 52 feet, with a raised patio, established planting, and a central lawn. Bathed in afternoon sun, this substantial plot offers exciting possibilities for landscaping, entertaining, or relaxing.
Upstairs, a central landing connects three bedrooms and the bathroom. The rear double bedroom benefits from a wide window and additional side pane, while the front bedroom is also well proportioned with twin windows. The third bedroom sits in the front corner and would work well as a study or nursery. The bathroom includes a built-in bath and offers ample room to redesign.
The surrounding area offers a great balance of green space, community spirit and local highlights. Just down the road, The Hare & Hounds serves as a popular neighbourhood pub with a welcoming atmosphere and a well-stocked bar. For outdoor pursuits, Leyton Jubilee Park is close by, ideal for strolls, weekend matches or letting off steam in the playground. A little further on, the vast open spaces of Lee Valley Park within Hackney Marshes provide acres of natural beauty, perfect for long walks or cycling. Families will appreciate the range of nearby schools, including the highly regarded Sybourn Primary, rated Outstanding by Ofsted and just a short ten-minute walk from the property.
What else?
Lea Bridge Station is just 15 minutes away on foot, offering swift connections to Stratford and beyond. A little further on, St James Street Station provides easy access to Liverpool Street via the Overground, while Walthamstow Queens Road also links conveniently to central London. With several well-connected stations within reach, the location makes commuting straightforward while still enjoying the benefits of a residential setting.

A word from the owner...
