Courtland Avenue, Redbridge

IF YOU LIVED HERE…
Step through the front door and the scale of the house quickly becomes apparent. The central hallway leads to three separate reception spaces, giving the ground floor plenty of flexibility. To one side, a long bay-fronted reception stretches towards the rear, while the opposite side is home to two further reception rooms. Period fireplaces, decorative cornicing and tall windows bring plenty of character, balanced by soft tones and a calm, cohesive finish. There’s also access to a useful cellar.
At the rear, the extended kitchen/diner is a brilliant everyday living space, with rooflights bringing in plenty of daylight and broad bi-fold doors opening directly onto the garden. White cabinetry, an island and pale tiled flooring give the room a clean, contemporary feel, with ample space for a large dining table. A separate utility room sits alongside, as does a ground-floor shower room. Outside, the east-facing garden combines a generous paved terrace with lawn and established planting around the boundaries, creating plenty of room for outdoor dining and relaxed weekends at home.
Upstairs, four double bedrooms are arranged around the landing. The two largest sit at the front, including a particularly spacious bay-fronted principal bedroom, while two further bedrooms overlook the rear. The family bathroom has plenty of personality, pairing patterned flooring and metro tiling with a freestanding bath and traditional-style fittings. With approximately 1,808 square feet across the main house, excluding the additional cellar, there’s an impressive amount of space here, all presented in good decorative order.
