In the Forest Gate Lanes, this well presented two-bedroom Victorian terraced house sits on a friendly residential street, close to local shops, cafes and the wide open greenery of Wanstead Flats. It is a sought after part of E7 to call home, with a strong neighbourhood feel and a real sense of day to day ease, whether you are heading out for coffee, hopping on the train or taking the long way back through the park.
IF YOU LIVED HERE...
Step through the front door and the house opens out in a way that feels both practical and inviting. At the front, the first reception room is bright and comfortable, with a bay window, soft tones and plenty of room to settle in. Beyond that, a second reception gives you more flexible living space, whether for dining, working or long, slow weekends at home. To the rear, the galley kitchen is neatly arranged and leads straight out to the landscaped garden, while a downstairs WC adds a useful extra touch for everyday life.
Upstairs, the two bedrooms are calm and well proportioned, with the larger room spanning the full width of the house to the front. The Jack and Jill bathroom sits on this floor, giving the layout a practical, considered feel that works especially well in a home of this size. Outside, the rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped, with planting and seating space that make it feel like a natural extension of the house in the warmer months.

Our Local Guide:
Forest Gate
If you’ve already heard Chiwetel Ejiofor or Idris Elba proudly discussing their hometown, you probably don’t need us to convince you of Forest Gate’s merits, but for those who haven’t, let us catch you up…
With a heritage rooted in culture, it’s not surprising that Forest Gate has a strong creative community today. During just one week in the 60s, the Upper Cut Club music venue there hosted – deep breath – The Who, the Animals, the Spencer Davis Group, Geno Washington and Jimi Hendrix. These days you’re more likely to find the area’s artistic-types supping drinks in the cool cafes and bars. Along with the period property and proximity to green space, this independent scene has been the main draw for new arrivals to the area, although the fact that Forest Gate is now on the Crossrail’s Elizabeth line has definitely helped nudge people in the right direction.
