About
This characterful end-of-terrace home presents a rare opportunity in an exceptional location, directly opposite the much-loved Fairlop Waters Country Park and lake.
The park provides a stunning natural backdrop and offers a wide range of leisure activities, including sailing, rowing, windsurfing and scenic walking routes.
A lakeside restaurant adds to the appeal of this beautiful setting.
Fairlop Central Line station is just a short walk away, providing convenient access to the City, West End and Stratford for Westfield shopping.
The property is entered via an enclosed porch leading into a bright lounge that flows effortlessly into the dining room.
From here, you can access the fitted kitchen, complete with integrated appliances. The ground floor also includes an additional sitting room, a study, and a family bathroom.
Upstairs, the first floor offers two well-proportioned double bedrooms. Outside, the home benefits from generous front and rear gardens, as well as a double detached garage.
The property has planning permission to add two further bedrooms and an additional bathroom to the first floor.
Forest Farm Cottages enjoy a charming semi-rural setting while remaining close to Barkingside High Street, which provides a diverse selection of shops, cafés and restaurants, including Tesco and Sainsbury’s.
A choice of excellent primary and secondary schools lies within easy reach, and a local farm shop is just moments from the property.
