Just seconds from the beautiful green expanse of Wanstead Flats on one of the most coveted streets in Bushwood, this four-bedroom Victorian terraced home would make the perfect live-in passion project for someone looking to breathe new life into a characterful period gem.
Inside, you’ll discover spacious, light-filled rooms with high ceilings and original details, including intricate ceiling mouldings, picture rails, and Victorian tiling. Meanwhile, an enclosed and mature 48ft south-facing garden offers plenty of outdoor space for families or entertaining.
You’ll find Leybourne Road nestled in a cluster of quiet, leafy streets between the restaurant-strewn high street and the southern tip of Epping Forest. Behind a front patio screened by a low brick wall, the smart London Stock brick exterior offsets a full-height collonaded bay window and ornate mouldings to the entrance porch, which features original Victorian tiles.
Step through the porch into the hallway, where you’ll find in-built storage and access to a handy storage cellar beneath the stairs. To the right of the hall, a large canted bay window fills the front living room with natural light, while detailed coving and ceiling mouldings nod to the property’s heritage.
There’s another reception overlooking the side return behind, which, like the living room, has storage space to the alcoves on either side of the chimney breast. Carry on to the rear of the house to reach a smaller third reception room, lit by a large side window. It’s currently being used as a recording studio but would make a fantastic home study or could be reconfigured with the adjoining kitchen behind to make a large open-plan dining kitchen. The kitchen is spacious, fully functional and leads through into a triple-aspect sunroom with part-glazed double garden doors.
Head upstairs onto a split-level landing with an in-built storage cupboard. Brightened by the upper bay window, the primary bedroom fills the front and comes with a three-piece en suite bathroom. The second double bedroom lies behind and features alcove storage and a big window to the side return, but you’ll also discover two further bedrooms on the lower landing, one of which faces the garden. There’s also a separate three-piece family bathroom.
Back in the sunroom, double doors and steps lead down to a long lawn completely screened from being overlooked by mature trees, shrubs, and flower borders. On the rear patio, a decent-sized wooden shed provides extra storage, but there’s also room for bikes, bins, or pot plants on the patio area running down the side return. Facing south, the garden (like the house) glows with potential as a tranquil oasis from urban life.
In the neighbourhood
Bushwood has a wonderful mix of long-term residents and newer arrivals, who are quickly welcomed into its vibrant community.
Just an eight-minute walk from High Road, with its cluster of local favourite hangouts, you’ll never be short of places to wine and dine. Some top spots include The Birds and The Red Lion pubs, Wild Goose Bakery (try the carrot cake), as well as Bushwood's excellent local tavern, The North Star.
Don’t forget to try Singburi – an outstanding Thai restaurant – Panda Dim Sum and To Be Consumed Wine – a great wine bar hosting a Mexican Fried Chicken pop-up every Friday night. Other highlights include Mora Italian restaurant, Bocca for authentic Neapolitan pizza, Red Camel and Marrakech Delight for their respective Afghan and Moroccan cuisine, La Rioja for tapas, Back to Ours for coffee, and Homies on Donkeys for tacos.
The house is also close to Wanstead's bars and restaurants (stop by Provender and Bombetta) and Forest Gate (check out Ramble and The Wanstead Tap). Only moments from home, you can explore Wanstead Flats, with Henry Reynolds Gardens a short walk away. The Olympic Park and Hackney Wick also offer many family-friendly activities and retail shopping opportunities.
Leytonstone Tube (Central Line) is an 11-minute walk, and Overground services are reachable in 14 minutes. Nearby schools include the Ofsted-rated ‘Good’ George Tomlinson Primary School, Our Lady of Lourdes, and the ‘Outstanding’ Davies Lane Primary School, which is seven minutes by foot.
