Montalt Road, IG8

This three-bedroom semi-detached family home is located on one of Woodford Green's premier roads and not only backs on to but offers views of Highams Park, Woods and Lake and beyond to the London skyline. The Highams Estate was designated an "Area of Special Character", with the quality and distinctive design of the architecture contributing to the desirability and enjoyment of the area. On the ground floor, there are two reception rooms; to the front, the living room which has been lovingly renovated by the owners, complete with gas fire, and to the rear overlooking the garden is the dining room, with ample space for entertaining. There is a separate kitchen with a utility cupboard, and the original cellar remains, offering extra storage if needed. Upstairs there are three bedrooms and a bathroom, with the back bedroom benefitting from the stunning views. To the rear of the house, there is a lovely patio outside the kitchen, leading round to the 80ft southwest facing garden, where you will find a fully functional garden room, equipped with heating, plumbing, electrics, WC and fridge, offering a perfect entertaining or workspace throughout the year. Furthermore there is a garage for even more additional storage space and a side entrance for access to the garden. The owners have full planning permission granted for a transformational extension, to extend the property to a four/five bedroom home, spanning 2200sqft internally, plus the 325sqft outbuilding. Both Highams Park Overground Station and Woodford Central Line Station are within easy walking distance and the property is within the catchment area of many popular schools, including ones with Ofsted Outstanding rating, as well as being close to Highams Park amenities and shops. Note from the owner; "Montalt Road has lovingly been our family home for over six years, where the city meets nature – an Essex gem with a London view. As a family, we have lived on Montalt and surrounding roads within the Highams estate for over 40 years. We have benefited from both overground and underground public transport within walking distance, great schools, and Highams Park, a beautiful haven at the end of our garden. We have enjoyed street party celebrations, a fabulous sense of community, bike rides through Epping Forest, coffee with our dog-walking friends at Humphrey’s and stunning London skyline views, including New Year’s Eve fireworks on the Thames. We hope the new owners enjoy the home as much as we have, and make many memories in this beautiful family home." Tenure: Freehold Council Tax Band: F Local Authority: Waltham Forest
