The Home -
This elegant four double bedroom Edwardian home is arranged over three floors
and also offers the potential to enlarge the footprint by extending into the
loft, to the side and also the basement (subject to the usual planning
consents) Blessed with many original features, a carefully considered interior
and a beautiful garden, the house is located within minutes of numerous green
spaces and nature, with Clapton overground station a couple of minutes walk
away offering very easy access to the city.
**The Indoors**
The front door is painted in Farrow and Ball and opens into the entrance hall,
here we have a clever combination of the original period wallpaper and Farrow
and Ball paint, with the restored original Oak floorboards underfoot. On the
right is the main reception room which also has the original/restored Oak
floorboards and a large bay window to the front, a fully functional period
fireplace with marble surround, the cornicing in this room is exquisite and
complimented by the original ceiling rose. The main reception room opens into
the dining room which has another original period fireplace with marble
surround, Oak floorboards and original doors that open into a gloriously
bright reading room.
As you descend down into the Kitchen diner there is access to the basement on
your left, ideal for extra storage and offering potential to excavate and add
more living space (subject to the usual planning consents) The kitchen is well
stocked with cabinets, work surfaces and a gas hob and oven. There is plenty
of room for a dining table and this room has a real sense of family living
about it. The door to the rear garden is on the right and here there is
further scope here to extend the kitchen out to the side with a glass roof
(subject to planning)
Ascending the original staircase and banisters up onto the first floor, we
find the master bedroom. A fantastically bright room thanks to two South
facing windows, this room is the full width of the house and has original Oak
floorboards, a feature fireplace and shutters that were installed in 2020, the
wallpaper is from House of Hackney. Next to the master is the second bedroom,
a great sized double bedroom with another feature fireplace and original Oak
floorboards. The family bathroom is also on this floor, it has a separate
shower and bath and Moroccan ceramic tiles underfoot. The third bedroom to the
rear of the house is a good sized double, it has more of the original Oak
floorboards and it makes a perfect study. Up on the second floor we find the
fourth double bedroom which has a large bespoke fitted wardrobe. Just outside
this room is a separate W. C.
**The Outdoors**
The private and landscaped garden has scope to extend the house to the side
(subject to planning) a lovely blossom tree and a mural painted by a local
artist. In the front garden there is a secure Bike shed.
