A substantial five-bedroom period home on the coveted Aldersbrook Estate, this double-fronted semi-detached house offers over 3,450 sq ft of well-proportioned living space. High ceilings, bay windows and original fireplaces give strong character throughout, while three large reception rooms and a generous modern kitchen open to the garden for flexible family living. A gated driveway provides secure off-street parking for multiple vehicles.
Practical features include a useful cellar, separate utility room and a ground-floor shower room. The vast loft (over 33ft) presents clear potential for conversion to additional bedrooms or living space, subject to planning permission (STPP). The rear garden and side area offer scope for extension if desired.
Buyers should note material considerations: the property sits in an area with higher local deprivation metrics and council tax is notably expensive (Band G). The brick cavity walls are likely uninsulated (assumed), which may mean further investment to improve thermal performance and running costs despite an EPC of C72. Overall, the house will suit a family seeking space and period detail who are prepared to modernise and invest to realise the property’s full potential.
Location benefits include being 0.5 miles from Outstanding-rated Aldersbrook Primary, close to Wanstead Flats and within easy reach of Manor Park Elizabeth Line and Wanstead Underground, making it practical for commuting into central London.
