IF YOU LIVED HERE…

The property sits within an attractive period building, its red brickwork and white-painted detailing lending a timeless character. A classic front door framed by decorative woodwork and a covered entrance creates a graceful first impression, while mature greenery softens the frontage.
Ascending to the first floor, a bright hallway and landing welcome you with daylight streaming through the sash window, highlighting the warmth of the timber floors and the charm of the painted balustrade. From here, the home unfolds into a series of well-proportioned rooms. The reception is a wonderfully generous space, anchored by a wide bay window that fills the room with sunshine. A period fireplace adds depth and character, while the flooring enhances the overall sense of elegance, offering a versatile area for dining and relaxing.
The main bedroom is equally impressive, with a tall sash window and a thoughtful layout that incorporates ample built-in wardrobes. It feels refined and perfectly suited for unwinding. Two further bedrooms complement the home. One has twin sash windows and a decorative cast-iron fireplace, while the other, front-facing, enjoys the light of a bay window and offers flexibility to suit different needs.
In the kitchen, light cabinetry contrasts with dark work surfaces, creating a polished finish enhanced by the sash window’s brightness. At the rear, the bathroom provides a serene retreat, with a deep bath, separate walk-in shower, and a soothing palette of white tiles and darker flooring.
Finally, the private garden offers a peaceful escape. With its central lawn, established planting, and a stylish decked pergola, it balances greenery with design to create a setting ideal for quiet moments and time with friends.
Surrounding the property is a wonderful blend of green space, community spirit and everyday convenience. George Lane is close by, lined with independent boutiques, cafés and useful amenities, creating a lively hub. Highlights include Bobo & Wild, a stylish spot for coffee or brunch, and The George pub, a welcoming setting for drinks or dinner. For family dining, Toby Carvery Woodford is a little further on. Nature is always within reach, with Churchfields Recreation Ground moments away, complete with a playground, and the vast expanse of Epping Forest offering endless opportunities for exploration. The area is also served by excellent schools, including the outstanding Churchfields Infants and Junior Primary.

A WORD FROM THE EXPERT...

"South Woodford was home for the first 25 years of my life. As I get older, I realise how lucky I am to have grown up here, an area with such fantastic schools, amenities, and green space. George Lane is the main hub, where you’ll find the Central line station, as well as a great selection of supermarkets — M&S, Sainsburys, Waitrose and a Co-op. On top of this, is a fantastic choice of bars, pubs and restaurants, as well as an Odeon Cinema, library and gym. You really do have everything on your doorstep. Personal picks for food include the Japanese restaurant Sakura and local favourite Nino’s. South Woodford boasts a great stock of Victorian/ Edwardian family homes, as well as newer purpose-built blocks of flats and conversions, so attracts families and young professionals. It has great transport connections to the City and Canary Wharf, and with Epping Forest on your doorstep it’s got the perfect balance of everything you need. My favourite local spots for walking are the Hollow Ponds and the tucked away Elmhurst Gardens, with its two tennis courts. All round, it’s a fantastic place to call home."
