IF YOU LIVED HERE...

Step through the front door and the proportions typical of a Victorian home are immediately clear. Your reception room sits to the front, a calm and welcoming space with large windows bringing in plenty of natural light. Just beyond, a second reception offers flexibility as a dining room or relaxed living space, creating a natural flow through the ground floor that works beautifully for everyday life or gatherings with friends.

To the rear, the kitchen looks out towards the garden. Step outside and you’ll find your private garden, a peaceful stretch of open air with plenty of room for planting, dining or simply enjoying warmer afternoons. Upstairs are two comfortable double bedrooms along with a first floor bathroom, neatly arranged across the level. With the house offered chain free and scope to extend in the future subject to planning, there’s clear potential to shape the home further over time.

A WORD FROM THE EXPERT...

“Forest Gate is one of London’s best kept secrets. With great housing, wide green spaces on Wanstead Flats and a friendly atmosphere shaped by independent boutiques, cafés and bars, it has everything you would want in a neighbourhood. Weekends are easily filled with coffee and pastries from The Wild Goose Bakery, fresh pasta from Fiore Truck, dinner at Giovanna’s or a brilliant curry from The Wanstead Kitchen. A walk across Wanstead Flats or through Wanstead Park completes the perfect local day out. The Elizabeth line makes Forest Gate incredibly well connected, with Liverpool Street about 12 minutes away, Canary Wharf around 15 and Heathrow reachable directly in under an hour. This mix of character, community and convenience is a big part of its appeal. Most of all, Forest Gate has a creative, independent spirit and a strong sense of community that locals proudly nurture”.
