This Edwardian four-bedroom terraced home on Wanstead Park Avenue sits in the desirable Aldersbrook conservation area, a short 0.6-mile walk from the Elizabeth Line and within reach of outstanding local primary schooling. The house retains many period features — high ceilings, bay windows, ornate cornicing and fireplaces — giving rooms generous volume and traditional character. The ground floor layout includes three formal reception rooms, a breakfast/dining room, utility, downstairs WC and access to a cellar, while the rear connects to a substantial, well-kept garden with two patio areas.
The property will suit families seeking space and proximity to green open areas (Wanstead Flats and Epping Forest) while benefiting from faster city commutes via the Elizabeth Line. Practical points include a single family bathroom serving four bedrooms and a cellar that provides storage but may need adaptation for modern use. The house has double glazing installed before 2002, a gas boiler with radiators, and solid brick walls assumed to lack cavity insulation — factors to consider for future running costs and any thermal upgrade plans.
Sold freehold with an EPC rating of C71 and an affordable council tax band, the home is a comfortable, characterful family base with scope to update services and internal finishes to personal taste. Its layout, proximity to excellent schools and transport links are key value drivers; however buyers should allow budget for potential energy-efficiency improvements and consider the single bathroom when assessing family needs.
