This stunning, light and airy, five-bedroom detached property would make the ideal family home.

Set in a much sought after area in North Chingford, every element of this property, from the distinctive half-timbered exterior to the original oak-stripped floors and leaded windows creates a feeling of quality.

The ground floor boasts three reception rooms, each offering generously sized and versatile living space, ideal for a growing family.

The main reception room is beautifully proportioned and filled with natural light from the leaded-light bay window to the front and additional windows to the side. Panelled walls, oak stripped floors and an original open fireplace give this room a comfortable, cosy atmosphere that is ideal for entertaining or just relaxing.

The second reception room also looks out to the front of the property and also has double glazed casement doors leading to the rear garden.

The third downstairs reception room is the ideal family room, with beams to the ceiling, wood panelling and a beautiful fireplace with a brick surround and ornate oak mantle. Georgian style glazed panels lead through to the dining area, giving this room a feeling of space and light.

For even more space, the morning room / conservatory with its double glazed doors and large skylight is a wonderfully bright and airy space, perfect for relaxing with a book or just enjoying the view of the garden.

At the heart of this lovely home, the kitchen has been fitted with a range of cream wall and base units with granite-effect worksurface, contrasting beautifully with the stripped oak flooring. The butler sink and stainless steel range cooker are both attractive and practical while the Georgian style part glazed door leads through to the utility room.

On the first floor, the master bedroom which overlooks the front of the property, has its own en-suite shower cubicle, and like each of the other bedrooms, is spacious and comfortable.

The first floor is also home to the family bathroom which is fitted with a stylish white suite with a panelled bath and chrome fittings. There is also a separate shower room adjacent to bedroom three.

The fifth bedroom is located in the loft room which benefits from two Velux windows, a built in wardrobe and wash basin with vanity unit.

Outside, the rear garden has a large patio with sun awning, so you can enjoy sitting outside even on the hottest summer days. The rest of the beautifully presented garden is laid mainly to lawn with borders of mature bushes and shrubs.

At the front of the property there is off-street parking for three cars as well as a detached garage which is accessed through the rear garden and via Taverners Way.
