About
Guide price £1,650,000 - £1,750,000 Surrounded by the ancient woodlands of Epping Forest, this immaculate five-bedroom detached home has been stylishly restored, spanning an impressive 2,740 square foot, with further potential to extend.

With an impressive 2,740 square foot of polished living space, this expansive five-bedroom home is a masterclass in scale and versatility.
Set behind a gated entrance, it offers privacy and style from the first glance.
The rear reception is perfect for entertaining, flooded with natural light from extensive glazing, while a striking brick hearth with bespoke seating adds period charm that contrasts beautifully with the smart decor.
The dual aspect kitchen/diner is both stylish and practical, fitted with sleek units, modern appliances, and a breakfast bar/unit that subtly divides the space.
A front reception, complete with considered features such as the antique-style radiator, could serve as a cosy den, playroom, or formal dining area.
Practicality is further enhanced by a ground-floor WC and an impressively sized utility room.
Upstairs, you’ll find five generously proportioned bedrooms, including a master with a twin-basin ensuite, plus a modern family bathroom to serve the rest of the home.
Outside, the rear garden offers a rolling lawn and mature foliage, flowing seamlessly onto the greenery of Epping Forest.

"This has been a lovely family home for us for many years, situated in this quiet location on a private road within Epping Forest.
From our doorstep we have walked and cycled the many paths, played tennis and even improved our fitness with the Orion running club.
We have appreciated the generous layout of the house allowing for easy entertaining with doors leading to, a sunny patio ideal for summer barbecues and a secluded south facing garden.
With North Chingford not far away we have made great use of the trains into London, as well as the local shops, restaurants and cafes - great to meet up with friends."
