About
A One Bedroom, Unfurnished Flat Positioned To The Ground Floor Of A Small Purpose Built Block A one bedroom, unfurnished flat positioned to the ground floor of a small purpose built block, set back from the road by a path and grassed areas.
The property’s private front door leads into a small lobby with space for storing your shoes and coats, then on into the main hallway which offers access to all rooms, plus an added bonus of a sizeable built-in storage cupboard.
To the left is the large double bedroom, which would easily accommodate a large double bed and additional bedroom furniture.
This room like much of the property invites plenty of natural light and the white walls and sand coloured carpet offer a perfect canvas for your own personal touches.
To the rear you’ll find the reception - again, a fantastic size with a large window with enough space for a lounge area and potentially room for a small dining table.
Next is the kitchen, another bright and airy space with a selection of modern, white gloss base and wall units set against mottled grey worktops and grey slate-style wall tiles.
The essential appliances are in place, including fridge freezer, electric oven and washing machine which is housed in a large storage cupboard with boiler.
The bathroom consists of white WC, sink and bath with shower above, with multi-tonal beige tiles with mosaic border to two walls, and darker-toned tiles to the floor. Simple, smart and serviceable.
Forest Gate is a well-loved area with superb transport links, hospitality businesses, shopping, and other facilities.
