A WORD FROM THE OWNERS...

"Stafford Road is well positioned for Katherine Road's numerous food stores, and it is about a 15-minute walk to the bustling shopping high streets and tube stations of either East Ham or Upton Park. Woodgrange Park overground station is a similar distance away, and Manor Park, for the Elizabeth Line, is about another ten minutes further, as is Forest Gate station. The green spaces of Plashet Park, West Ham Park and Wansted Flats are easily accessible on foot.

Watching our beautiful garden change through the seasons, and living in a period property with original features, are highlights of living in our flat. And the basement is a bonus. The south-facing lounge room floods with light on sunny mornings and is cosy throughout the winter months. Stafford Road has been a friendly and engaging neighbourhood throughout our 13 years of living here. "
