2 bed flat for sale

Cranbrook Road, Ilford IG1

A truly exceptional two-bedroom ground-floor apartment set within Wycliffe House, an impressive Grade II listed former church dating from 1907 and positioned directly opposite the beautiful open spaces of Valentines Park.

This remarkable home brings together dramatic historic architecture and stylish contemporary living. The magnificent open-plan reception room and kitchen form the centrepiece of the apartment, with soaring ceilings, an abundance of natural light and spectacular original windows. As the sun moves around the building throughout the day, it enters the different rooms and highlights the apartment’s many unique architectural features.

Art Nouveau stained glass, distinctive room shapes, an original pillar within the principal bedroom and a skylight offering a glimpse of one of the building’s characterful exterior gargoyles all contribute to the individuality of this very special home. These period details are beautifully contrasted by the modern kitchen, bathroom, fireplace and flooring.

The spacious open-plan arrangement provides an impressive setting for both everyday living and entertaining. There are two well-proportioned bedrooms, while the private courtyard garden offers a peaceful place to enjoy the sunshine, tend to plants, entertain friends or relax with a glass of wine.

Despite its central and convenient location, the apartment itself feels calm, private and tranquil. Further benefits include its accessible ground-floor position and parking.

Wycliffe House is located opposite Valentines Park and within easy reach of Ilford Station, where the Elizabeth line provides fast connections to Liverpool Street, Canary Wharf, the City and the West End. Local shops, restaurants, schools and everyday amenities are all close by.

With approximately 116 years remaining on the lease, this is a rare opportunity to acquire an individual home filled with light, history and architectural character, while enjoying excellent connections into central London.
