Gardner Close, Wanstead

A bright, well-presented one bedroom flat on the first floor of a small, well-maintained development, with Wanstead High Street and the Central line close by. It’s a great spot for making the most of the area, from morning coffee and dinner out to long walks through Wanstead’s generous green spaces.

IF YOU LIVED HERE...

The open-plan reception and kitchen gives the flat a sociable heart, with large windows drawing in plenty of natural light. There’s space to settle in for the evening as well as sit down to eat, while the kitchen is seamlessly incorporated into the room, with crisp white cabinetry, dark splashbacks and integrated appliances. Pale flooring and fresh white walls make everything feel bright and cohesive, leaving plenty of room to bring in your own colour, artwork and furniture.

The double bedroom continues the calm, simple finish, with a generous window bringing in more daylight, while the modern bathroom is finished in clean, neutral tones with a walk-in shower. Outside your own four walls, there’s a well-kept communal garden to enjoy in warmer weather, along with secure bike storage.

A WORD FROM THE OWNER.....

"We have absolutely loved living in our cosy apartment in Wanstead. It has been a wonderful home for us, and we’ve really enjoyed making it our own. We’ve really valued being part of such a lovely community, both within the block and in the surrounding area. We’ve both particularly enjoyed the peaceful feel of Wanstead while still being so close to central London. We’ve really loved the great local cafés, restaurants and green spaces that are all close by. It has been a very happy home for us, and we’re sure the next owners will love living here just as much as we have."
