IF YOU LIVED HERE…
This spacious home opens with a fully enclosed porch, offering both privacy and light, before leading into a bright hallway with wood flooring and crisp white walls. At the front, a bay-fronted reception room enjoys generous proportions and plenty of natural light, an inviting space for relaxing or entertaining. The second reception sits centrally, ideal as a home office, snug or guest room. Toward the rear, a third reception provides a generous dining area with direct access to the kitchen, offering excellent scope, subject to planning, to open up into a striking open-plan layout.

The kitchen is a well-sized, functional space fitted with wooden cabinetry, dark tiled splashbacks and granite-effect worktops. A large window and glazed door open onto the garden, while a skylight enhances the natural brightness. Between the kitchen and dining room, a fully tiled walk-in shower room adds convenience and could be seamlessly incorporated into a future redesign for improved flow.

Outside, the low-maintenance garden features paved flooring, a timber shed, and plenty of room for planters or outdoor seating, perfect for transforming into a private courtyard retreat. Upstairs, the principal bedroom spans the width of the property with twin windows and a spacious footprint, providing an ideal base for a stylish main suite. A second double bedroom sits in the middle, while a bright single at the rear is well suited for a child’s room or dedicated workspace. The family bathroom is tiled in soft blue and includes a full-size bath, offering a solid starting point for a modern refresh.

A WORD FROM THE EXPERT...

"When I decided to move to Forest Gate a few years ago, I was drawn by the great housing stock, the green spaces of Wanstead Flats and the friendly, up-and-coming vibe of independent boutiques, eateries, and bars. I’ve spent many a happy weekend walking on the flats and in Wanstead Park. Often, I’ll finish up with an all-trimmings roast at The Holly Tree or meet friends for a drink at Joyau. Or perhaps a fantastic curry from The Wanstead Kitchen. After living here for a while, you really start to feel happy and settled. I love the arty, independent feel of Forest Gate, and I get the impression I’m not the only one — it’s something all the locals nurture and support."
