Description

With a location that borders Leytonstone, Stratford and Forest Gate, this elegant three bedroom Victorian terraced house is perfect for for fans of understated, modern-traditional style, and for when one neighbourhood simply isn′t enough.

The house has retained its classic layout of twin interconnecting reception rooms on the ground floor along with a kitchen and utility room, while upstairs are three bedrooms and the family bathroom. Outside is a garden of 33ft with two access points from the house, including an unusual yet extremely useful door from the entrance hall.

Comprehensively refurbished by the current owners in 2016, the improvements to the house include new electrics, new boiler, new kitchen, new bathroom and complete redecoration, combining contemporary finishes and facilities with Victorian features to forge a link between old and new. It′s a mix that celebrates the age of the house while meeting the demands of modern family life and you can feel the love that′s gone into it: in fact the current owners got engaged here and are only moving to relocate for work.

At the front of the house, a rebuilt bay in square form adds an unexpected quality to the living room that provides extra light through five sets of casement windows along with the added practicality from the new right angles. Beautiful engineered oak floors add a rich textural warmth and continue through the ground floor.

The kitchen is fitted in a shaker style with a pair of parallel cupboard runs in French grey incorporating a full size Rangemaster cooking range, twin bowl Belfast sink, white metro tiles with anthracite grout; Raw metal finished door handles, mixer tap and school-style radiator complete the picture.

Beyond the kitchen, the utility room has an integrated dishwasher, space/plumbing for a washing machine and access to the rear garden.

Upstairs are three bedrooms, with two overlooking the rear garden and the master running across the full width of the front of the house. You′ll also find the family bathroom on this floor with fittings by Burlington including a cast iron roll top top bath with shower and sleek glass screen, Victorian style wc and rectangular wash basin with vanity cupboard. Large format white tiles with anthracite grout continue the theme set out in the kitchen.

Outside, the rear garden of 33ft is easy to maintain and easy on the eye with the simple-yet-highly-effective concept of raw materials given a modern treatment including gorgeous purple slate chippings underfoot and raised planters held in place by chunky timbers.

With three neighbourhoods to explore, Devonshire Close benefis from a wealth of cafes, bars and restaurants within walking distance alongside the vast international shopping, cinema and food operators of Westfield Stratford City, just one stop (2 mins) by train.

Favorites of the current owners include Mora for Italian; Asado for Steak; Marmelo on Francis Road in Leyton for lovely dinners; Leytonstone Tavern for excellent pints and brunch; and The Holly Tree for more great pints, Sunday roasts and even a train in the pub!

For stepping outside and getting to know your neighbours, Forest Lane and Langhorne Parks are both nearby and have lakes, walking paths and playgrounds, while a deeper experience of nature can be had in the wonderful reserve of Wanstead Flats, just at the end of Ramsay Road.
