About
*SOLD BY PETTY SON & PRESTWICH* Occupying a commanding corner position on the prestigious Grosvenor Road in the very heart of Wanstead, this exceptional six-bedroom Edwardian residence is a home of remarkable presence, elegance and scale.
Set along a wide, tree-lined avenue renowned for its distinguished period architecture, the property enjoys a setting that evokes the grandeur of central London, yet remains just moments from Wanstead High Street (0.3 miles) and equidistant from both Wanstead and Snaresbrook Central Line stations (0.5 miles).
A number of highly regarded schools and nurseries sit within easy reach, further enhancing the appeal of this outstanding location.
Set within an impressive wraparound plot, the house immediately captivates.
A striking black and white chequered pathway, softened by seasonal planting, leads to a beautifully preserved façade rich in Edwardian detail, where ornate features, London stock brickwork and elegant double bay windows combine to create a truly memorable first impression.
The traditional frontage is artfully complemented by a contemporary landscaped garden, where grey slate, tiered beds and mature planting introduce a refined, modern contrast.
To the side, discreet gated access reveals a carport, cleverly concealed so as not to detract from the home’s striking kerb appeal.
Inside, a beautifully tiled entrance hall sets the tone, leading into a series of exquisitely proportioned living spaces where period character and modern sophistication exist in perfect harmony.
The principal reception room is a study in Edwardian grandeur, defined by soaring ceilings, an elegant fireplace and a magnificent bay window dressed with plantation shutters, while rich parquet flooring adds warmth and depth beneath crisp, contemporary finishes.
To the rear, a second reception room offers a more intimate yet equally refined setting, where dual aspect light frames a characterful log burner and wide bay doors open seamlessly onto the garden, creating an effortless connection between inside and out.
At the heart of the home lies a truly outstanding kitchen and dining space.
Bespoke cabinetry in soft grey hues is paired with pristine white granite worktops, while underfloor heating ensures both comfort and practicality.
Bathed in natural light from a skylight, feature window and patio doors, the space flows beautifully into a generous dining area, unified by continuous design detailing.
A guest cloakroom completes the ground floor.
The first-floor hosts four beautifully appointed bedrooms, each echoing the home’s period charm, with several retaining original fireplaces and fitted wardrobes.
One bedroom, currently arranged as a utility, offers flexibility, while another enjoys access to a sleek glass balcony stretching along the side elevation, providing a tranquil, sunlit vantage point looks across to Stanstead Road.
The principal suite is nothing short of exquisite, evoking the pages of an interior magazine.
Thoughtfully designed and impeccably finished, it features bespoke fitted wardrobes, a graceful bay window and an elegant fireplace, alongside a truly indulgent centrepiece - an elevated freestanding roll-top bath set within the bay on a striking chequered tiled platform.
A beautifully finished family shower room serves this floor.
The second floor offers further versatility, with one additional double bedroom benefitting from an en-suite shower room, and one single bedroom as well as generous storage space.
The wraparound garden is as thoughtfully composed as the interiors, unfolding into a series of distinct and enchanting outdoor spaces.
From the contemporary frontage and concealed parking, the garden transitions to a sheltered side terrace with raised brick beds and a dedicated BBQ area, ideal for entertaining.
To the rear, a more classical English garden emerges, where a London brick pathway weaves through established planting and a charming water feature, leading to a generous lawn.
At the far end, a substantial outbuilding, currently utilised as a home office, offers both practicality and potential, completing this exceptional and beautifully balanced home.
