"We had been looking for a property in this area for quite some time", says Steve. "In fact i now recall it took us two years to find this home". Lorraine continues " We just knew immediately that this was the right home for us. We were impressed by the character appearance of the property and we could see the potential to extend the accommodation".

"We have enjoyed living here for about 15 years" explained Steve and Lorraine. "During this time we enlarged the property in the way of a double storey side extension and added a utility room and conservatory. The accommodation now means we have five bedrooms, one of which is a guest bedroom with en-suite shower room that we converted from the loft. To the ground floor we have several rooms which we prefer compared to open plan living".

Lorraine contines "The home now provides rooms that cater for today's modern lifestyle and as the ground floor rooms interconnect with each other, they create a flow to the home and it's great for entertaining and we have held many a party over the years".

Steve explains "The location has been ideal for us, we are placed with 0.8 miles of Woodford Tube Station and 0.3 miles of Roding Valley Tube Station, making central London very accessible. A selection of shops can be found within Woodford Green and Buckhurst Hill, together with a choice of restaurants". Lorraine adds "Another advantage of living here is the access to superb educational facilities for which we are well catered for by a number of schools within the area that have a high reputation".
