Guide price £1,000,000 - £1,100,000The current owners of 3 Drummond Road have raised their family and lived in the property for the past 30 years, which is testament not only to its suitability, but also its desirability as a forever home within which to raise your own family. The property is situated in one of London's most recommendable areas, just minutes away from a multitude of reputable schools and green areas, including 140 acres of woodland within Wanstead park. Wanstead is renowned for its "village-within-a-city" feel, with a bustling and active community to get involved in, plentiful leisure and sports opportunities, quick and easy transport links into the city, and a wonderful high street filled with local businesses to support. The property itself is brimming with character, from its stained glass door and bay window to the front elevation, to original and attractive decorative features throughout. Through the front entrance, a porch leads you directly into the entrance hall, from which the lounge, kitchen and dining room are accessed. The principal lounge, overlooking the front of the home, features an arts and crafts-style fireplace surround and alcove shelving for storage, with beams of sunlight radiating in throughout the day via a large bay window. Next to the lounge is a second reception room, which could be used however your family sees fit: from a formal dining room, to a playroom or home office. This additional reception room leads directly into the conservatory via double doors, so you can easily extend your dining space into the garden during the summer months. Back into the entrance hall and past the grand half-turn staircase lies the kitchen, a fantastic space with plenty of room for an additional small seating arrangement, for cosy chats with friends over a coffee or busy morning breakfasts. The kitchen features a range cooker with gas hob, plumbing for a dishwasher, shelving and overhead/undercounter storage. This space leads directly into a separate utility room, with additional storage, plumbing for a washing machine, and fridge/freezer space. The conservatory extension is an excellent addition to this lovely home, providing a quiet space to take in the outdoors - even when the weather isn't favourable for time in the garden. First floor On the first floor, you'll find four double bedrooms, the family bathroom, and a separate WC. Each of the bedrooms contains more than enough room for additional clothes storage and sleeping arrangements, and if four bedrooms aren't required for your family any would be well suited to becoming a playroom, office, or even a walk-in wardrobe space. The family bathroom features a WC, wash basin, bathtub and shower enclosure, with a separate WC next door. Second floorThe second floor of this wonderful property is home to a converted master suite, a grand bedroom designed with tranquillity in mind. Its position away from the main living areas, double skylight windows and expansive space is perfect for adults to retreat to at the end of the day. Outdoors To the front of the property lies a small garden area, with on-road permit parking available for residents. The rear garden offers a peaceful and private space to relax within in the warmer months, with additional bike storage, room for a shed or summer house, and a lovely lawned area surrounded by mature shrubs. Area guide Despite being so close to the bustling hive of the inner city, Wanstead has a wonderfully close-knit community and is one of the greenest parts of the capital. With excellent schools, hospitality venues and - of course - plenty of quiet pockets in which to enjoy dog walks and nature, we believe it's one of the best places to raise a family. Wanstead provides the ideal combination of city and village life. Commuting into the city is made simple with a variety of transport links: The central line at Wanstead tube station is only a 5-minute walk from Drummond Road. Right on your doorstep, you'll find an abundance of trails and open green spaces for exercising your dogs or taking the children out for nature walks. You're always a stone's throw from somewhere beautiful to appreciate the outdoors, particularly as Wanstead Park - 140 acres of Grade II listed woodland - is just 15 minutes away. And with various sports fields and clubs, a golf course and family activities taking place regularly in the area, there really is something to suit every member of the family. The property is also in close proximity to numerous primary schools, including Aldersbrook Primary School and Wanstead Church School, both of which are rated "outstanding" by Ofsted and a five-minute drive away. For older children, Wanstead High School - rated "good", is situated directly opposite the entrance to Drummond Road. Take a brief stroll into the heart of Wanstead, and you'll find everything you could possibly need on the high street for a catch-up with friends or your everyday shopping needs. From bustling pubs and coffee shops to upmarket bars and restaurants, plus supermarkets and independent retailers, the high street has a friendly and thriving village atmosphere. The entire town has community spirit in abundance, so if you're moving to the area for the first time, we're sure you'll love it here as much as we do.  For more details and to contact: https://realtyww.info/houses_london-d196251/for-sale_i70163429
