Owner’s Comment “We moved here as a couple and this became our first family home, holding so many wonderful memories for us.

What we will miss most is the incredible sense of community, the independent cafés, pubs and restaurants, and having Wanstead Flats and West Ham Park just a short walk away.

We have lovingly improved the house by restoring the original floorboards, adding shutters and blinds, installing bespoke fitted wardrobes, redecorating throughout and completely redesigning and landscaping the garden to create a lovely space for relaxing and entertaining.

Forest Gate and Wanstead Park stations are both within easy walking distance, so the house offers quick access into Central London while still feeling surrounded by greenery and community.

We are only moving to be closer to family as our own family grows, and hope the next owners love the house and area as much as we have.”
