Your stylishly presented, three bedroom, second floor apartment sits in a charming, gated development overlooking Epping Forest. Although you're surrounded by countryside, the vibrant High Street and Snaresbrook station are also close by.

Your door to door commute to the City takes less than thirty five minutes via nearby Snaresbrook station. From here, fast Central line services take you through to Liverpool Street in nineteen minutes, and on to the West End.

IF YOU LIVED HERE…

There's plenty of parking space in the leafy grounds of your gated development and also a handy cycle shed for those who prefer getting around by bike. As you step into your apartment, a long bright entrance hall stretches before you, with blonde hardwood flooring and more bespoke storage for coats, bags and shoes. In your 190 square foot reception room, the smooth hardwood continues underfoot and a South facing Juliet balcony overlooks the forest. A dark quartz and chrome fireplace takes centre stage, with custom made alcove shelving units to the side. Across the hall, in your kitchen, you have a brushed stainless steel extractor hood, granite style splashbacks and seamless matt cabinets.

Next door your bathroom is all decked out in smoky pale grey wall tiles, a contemporary white suite with shower over the tub and a handy window ledge shelf. Your principal bedroom is decorated in warm, neutral tones and has sliding door fitted wardrobes. A window frames more treetop views as your toes sink into plush, velvety carpet. Another handsome double bedroom sits next door, with a smart monochrome colour scheme and your third sleeper, currently in use as a nursery bedroom, would also make a wonderful home office.

Outside, you're surrounded by the lush natural space of Epping Forest, Hollow Ponds and Leyton Flats. In less than quarter of an hour you could be rowing around Hollow Ponds on a hired row boat or, in just a few minutes, you'll be out into nature, exploring one of the many footpaths and cycle trails that lead deeper into these natural beauty spots. For friendly coffee shops and fine dining, Wanstead High Street is only a half mile from your front door. At Bare Brew, you'll find speciality, freshly roasted coffee and at Daygustation wines you can complement your Rioja or Chardonnay with a delicious charcuterie board. Provender restaurant offers the best of French haute cuisine and has a stylish exposed brick interior.

a word from the owner...

"We’re really going to miss our peaceful, green corner of London. Our guests always comment on how quiet it is, despite the easy access to Central London via Snaresbook, Wood St & Walthamstow Central. Where we’re situated, we’ve got the best of it all with the independent shops, cafes & pubs of Wanstead High Street, the rapidly gentrifying Wood Street, and the gentile Walthamstow village all just a few minutes stroll away. We’ve been so thankful for the easy access to the green lung of Epping Forest and Hollow Pond for romantic walks, family bike rides and sweaty runs, with the 5km loop of the Hornbeam Trail loop literally outside the backdoor. What truly makes Buxton House special is the unique mix of residents that make up a community that go out of their way to help each other and become fast friends via scheduled meet-ups in the communal gardens."

Our Local Guide:
Wanstead

Buxton Drive, Wanstead — Stow Brothers

Thanks to its royal connections and grand properties, Wanstead has previously been compared to the likes of Twickenham and Richmond, although East Londoners are quick to point out that it has plenty enough merits of its own. 

For a start, despite its villagey feel, it’s proudly nestled within London’s most creative quadrant and only a short hop on the Central line from the bright lights of the City. There’s also an abundance of green space – Wanstead Flats, Epping Forest, Wanstead Park and Chalet Wood, with the seasonal display of bluebells in the latter just calling out for an accompanying picnic from one of the well-stocked local delis or cafes. But that’s not to say that Wanstead’s charming pubs and restaurants aren’t delightful to look at themselves – it’ll be deciding which to go for that’s the problem.
