IF YOU LIVED HERE

Coming in a 1145 square foot with potential to extend, this is a brilliant property to call your own, while the area is a fantastic place to lay down roots. Great schools, plenty of greenery and wonderful amenities it s got it all.

Your two receptions have been opened up into a beautiful dual aspect double space, full of period charm and awash with natural light. The ornate fireplace, beading, bay frontage and original floors are a reminder of the home s Victorian roots, but the neutral decor and polished finish bring it all bang up to date.

The kitchen diner is just as spotless, with charming units and fittings. During warmer months, you can spill outside to the rear garden and enjoy the beautiful array of mature foliage on display, as well as the storage.

A WORD FROM THE EXPERT...

"Being a country girl at heart, for me Wanstead is the perfect blend of village city living. With excellent transport links into the city, I often meet up with friends to explore the wonders of London. But I also enjoy going for long, leafy walks with Hollow Ponds and Wanstead Park on my doorstep.
I was first attracted to Wanstead by its charming High Street, lush green spaces and choice of excellent schools. Since moving here, I have discovered some new favourites for breakfast La Bakerie, lunch at Otto and The Duke for the best roast around.
I love to stay active, and here in Wanstead you have lots to choose from. From organised yoga at Christ Church Green, personal training sessions at Target Fit or jogging around the various nature trails of Epping Forest.
There is a great sense of community here in Wanstead, with informative Facebook groups, street parties, a monthly farmers market and the local jumble trail. I have made many friends locally, there is a genuine community spirit here and I am proud to call Wanstead my home."
