Location

Situated on the lovely and quiet tree-lined street of Strode Road allows for a wealth of opportunities when it comes to exploring everything Forest Gate has to offer. Wanstead Flats is located just one road away and is a short three minute walk from your own front door. Here you can take in the vast green space that can be utilised for a multitude of outdoor activities. East London’s best kept secret, Wanstead Park is only a mile away. A gigantic country park, hidden away, home to Chalet Woods.  Visit when the bluebells are out and prepare to be wowed.

If you like your beer, head down to Pretty Decent Beer Co taproom, a few streets away. And great times are to be had at your new local The Holly Tree - whether it’s a tasty sunday roast, or a fun night of Drag Bingo. On lazy Saturdays you can roll out of bed and into the Wild Goose Bakery just around the corner, to grab some delicious treats. Or curl up on the sofa with a curry from The Wanstead Kitchen if you feel like a quiet night in. Whatever you need - Forest Gate has got your back.

Transportation links are also in huge supply. Wanstead Park and Forest Gate stations are 0.2 miles and 0.4 miles from the property respectively - granting both underground and overground transport options. And with Stratford only one stop away, you can pop to Westfield on a whim, or jump on a train to the seaside no bother!  Finally an abundance of nursery, primary & secondary schools are all nearby and offer a good to outstanding Ofsted rating.

A note from the owner:

Strode Road has been a wonderful first home. I’ve loved living in the vibrant Forest Gate and indulging in long walks in Wanstead Park on a Sunday, followed by a great roast at the Holly Tree. I love supporting all the local businesses, and new ones seem to be popping up each day. The Elizabeth Line has transformed things! It’s a really friendly neighbourhood. And the flat itself has been great. It’s the perfect size for a one bed, bright, airy, and cosy.  As a woman living alone, I’ve felt really safe. Loads of happy memories here, and I’ll be sad to say goodbye.
