For SaleProperty in Knighton Lane£2,000,000

About this property A rare opportunity to purchase this substantial home, one of the larger detached houses in Buckhurst Hill. Set in a quiet lane with Epping Forest literally just a few yards up the road, the home is nonetheless just minutes by foot from the Central Line, local shops in Queens Road, and first-rate schools. This triple fronted house, built in a Tudor style, provides vast open plan spaces creating a stunning and flexible interior. The large entrance hall has wood flooring, that flows throughout much of the ground floor and leads to the rest of the accommodation. This spacious lounge and music areas are perfect for hosting large family gatherings, with doors opening onto the garden, and plenty of space for relaxing sofas and armchairs. A gas log coal fire is perfect for cosy winter evenings and there's even room for a baby grand piano. An equally spacious dining area, large enough to host big family gatherings, provides a great place to enjoy a meal with family and friends. The family area opens onto the gabled conservatory area that offers another seating/dining area with views over the garden. This is perfect for relaxing in with windows looking out onto the garden and featuring an attractive gabled roof. The sitting room would also make an ideal play room. There is also a contemporary kitchen with a large breakfast area where all the family can enjoy informal dining. The kitchen includes a pantry, a raft of modern units housing a double oven, a larder fridge and matching freezer, two dishwashers, laundry facilities and a Quooker boiling water tap as well as a central island with an induction hob and daylight flooding through the lantern skylight. There is also a downstairs cloakroom. On the first floor there are five bedrooms in total, bedroom one has an en-suite bathroom and two further bedrooms have en-suite shower rooms and a fourth bedroom has an en-suite shower. In addition, there is also a main family bathroom with a contemporary wet room style double shower and a stand-alone bath. Outside the front garden borders the carriage driveway and features a lawn, well-established trees, shrubs and clipped hedges while the easily maintained rear garden is primarily laid to lawn with a patio. It is edged by shrubs and trees. There is still scope to further extend by building on another floor in the loft area, subject to planning permission. Sellers Insight This has been our wonderful family home for the past 40 years and during that time it has undergone a number of upgrades to create the very special property you see today. We have loved living here and hope the new owners enjoy it as much as we have. Buckhurst Hill is a wonderful place to live, it is the best of all worlds, and our house is close to everything. We are in the heart of Epping Forest, the Central Line is a few minutes walk away with direct links to the City and Central London and there are excellent state and private schools, and shops and restaurants, very close by.
