About
Located on the ever-popular Gainsborough Road in Woodford Green, this impressive two-bedroom Victorian terraced home has been meticulously modernised and renovated to an exceptional standard by its current owners.
Offering a perfect blend of period charm and contemporary design, the property is presented in true show home condition.
Retaining beautiful original features alongside high-specification modern touches, it’s ideally placed for those seeking character, quality, and convenience in equal measure.
As you enter through the front door, you’re welcomed into a bright and spacious living room with beautiful oak flooring running throughout the ground floor, enhanced by underfloor heating.
A real feature of this room is the stunning original fireplace, dating back to the 1890s, complete with its original fire insert and a gas-adapted fire basket, creating a warm and elegant focal point.
Moving through the home, the living space opens seamlessly into an extended kitchen/diner — a beautifully designed bespoke kitchen fitted with a range of premium Miele and quality integrated appliances.
The space is thoughtfully arranged for both entertaining and everyday living, with double doors leading directly onto the generous rear garden.
Upstairs, the property offers two well-proportioned double bedrooms, the principal bedroom boasting another original Victorian fireplace with matching period insert and adapted gas fire.
The first floor also features a sleek and stylish four-piece family bathroom, finished to an exceptional standard with high-quality fittings, a freestanding bath, walk-in shower, and contemporary tiling.
