A WORD FROM THE OWNER...

"We have had a couple of wonderful years living in the Avondale Court area of Churchfields, South Woodford. A standout feature in the flat, for us, has been the lovely modern kitchen which contrasts nicely with the late 1930s charm of the overall build, and the view from the second bedroom, particularly in the spring and summer, when the trees are in bloom, is pleasant. The area is incredibly quiet and is a stone's throw away from a lovely local park, Elmhurst Gardens, and a short walk to one of our favourite restaurants on the High Road, Namak."
