Set on a wide plot in Wanstead’s sought-after Preston Drive, this substantial four-bedroom end-of-terrace offers generous family accommodation across two floors. The ground floor centres on an open-plan kitchen and dining area with adjoining utility and direct garden access, plus two large reception rooms and a practical downstairs family shower room. Upstairs the principal bedroom has an en suite and three further bedrooms share a contemporary family bathroom.
Outside the house benefits from a large rear garden, a double garage with adjoining outbuilding (currently used as office/gym) and off-street parking — useful for multi-car households. The property’s bay-fronted, 1930s façade and period details provide character while large windows deliver good natural light throughout.
Practical points for buyers: the building is solid-brick (constructed 1930–1949) and there is no confirmed wall insulation, so thermal upgrades would improve comfort and efficiency. Council Tax is above average (Band E) and some internal areas may benefit from updating to suit a buyer’s tastes. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and the location gives easy access to Wanstead High Street, green spaces and the Central line into central London.
This house suits a family seeking long-term living space with scope to modernise and personalise. It also offers potential for refurbishment to increase value, subject to any necessary planning or building consents.
