East Way Wanstead , E11 2DR

IF YOU LIVED HERE…

Beyond that smart - and distinctly mid-century modern in style - frontage, you’ll find a fantastically proportioned home with the perfect set-up for a family. The placement of the kitchen at the front of the home follows one of our favourite layouts. Here you’ll find ample storage space, quality appliances and stylish herringbone-style tiling. There’s plenty of room for a dining table, too.

At the rear you have your vast reception room, which is full of natural light thanks to generous patio doors. The decor is immaculate and the bespoke carpentry masterful. At the rear, the garden is perfectly low maintenance, although the planters provide opportunity to keep green fingers busy. When the sun is shining you’ll love sitting at the end under your majestically mature tree, bliss.

Upstairs, you have three immaculate bedrooms, two of which have more cleverly designed custom storage. There’s also a smart family-bathroom, with an over-tub shower and floor to ceiling tiling. Don’t forget your downstairs WC though - a great convenience.

Beyond, venture down your tree-lined street to the village-esque hub of Wanstead and you’ll feel a world away from the bustle of London life. With everything from horse riding, farmer’s markets, charming pubs and lush greenery on your doorstep, it’s easy to forget that you're only about 17 minutes away from the City on the tube (which is a 12 minute walk away).

If you want to stay local, though, La Bakerie will always be a winner on work from home days, but for a treat, book in for the excellent Provender Restaurant or the Cardamom Room. Takeaway? Tiffin Tin is fantastically popular throughout the whole area, as is Luppolo Pizza.

As for green space, to the south you’ll find Wanstead Park, a much loved community space and landmark of historical importance. Chalet Wood there is particularly popular during bluebell season. To the west you’ve got Epping Forest’s Hollow Ponds, where you can even rent a rowing boat during summer months.

WHAT ELSE?

- Parents will be pleased to know you have a choice of excellent primary/secondary schools in the area - this is one of the main reason why the area is so popular. Wanstead High School is just 0.6 miles away.
- You also have easy access to South Woodford, where you have even more amenities, including Marks & Spencer, Waitrose and an impressive Art Deco Odeon cinema. Leytonstone and Walthamstow are both close to hand too.
- New local? You’ve moved at the perfect time because the George and Dragon has just undergone a big renovation and now boasts stunning interiors, a brilliant menu and buzzing atmosphere. It’s just 11 mins away on foot. The Cuckfield and Duke are even closer and just as warm and friendly, so you’re spoilt for choice.
