If you lived here...
Set within a well-kept development, this attractive building combines warm brickwork with dark timber panelling to create a balanced and appealing frontage. The entrance is softened by neatly planted shrubs and greenery, giving an inviting first impression before stepping inside.
Once upstairs, a bright and well-arranged hallway sets the tone for the home, complete with wooden flooring and three built-in storage cupboards that add both function and flow. The reception room is generously sized and filled with natural light from a wide window, offering a welcoming space for everyday living. Its open connection to the kitchen enhances the sense of space, making it ideal for relaxing or entertaining guests.
Filled with light, the kitchen features contrasting tones that bring a touch of character and practicality. The layout feels effortless, creating a pleasant area for cooking or casual dining. The bedroom continues the calm, airy feel of the home, with smooth wooden floors and soft neutral tones providing a tranquil backdrop for personal touches.
Fresh and understated, the bathroom features tiled finishes and a bright, natural atmosphere that feels both clean and restful. Outside, residents enjoy access to generous communal gardens framed by mature trees and greenery, along with ample parking on a gravelled area. Altogether, the property offers a harmonious blend of light, ease, and thoughtful design in an appealing setting.
The surrounding area offers a lively mix of green spaces, local charm, and independent favourites. Wanstead Flats, part of the vast Epping Forest, is close by, ideal for peaceful strolls or weekend runs, with Tamping Grounds nearby for a coffee to take along your walk.

Not far beyond, Forest Gate’s Arches offer another pocket of local life, where you’ll find Wild Goose Bakery, Joyau, and a growing mix of independent makers and eateries.

A word from the owner...
"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."
