Recently refurbished, this home blends modern style with a layout designed for ease. The open plan kitchen and lounge feel bright and welcoming, with timber flooring running throughout to create a sense of flow. A stylish bathroom adds a contemporary touch, while neutral décor keeps the interiors calm and versatile. The main bedroom is enhanced by its own ensuite, adding both comfort and privacy. A private courtyard provides a peaceful outdoor retreat, ideal for unwinding or adding a personal touch with planting. With well-proportioned rooms and Wanstead Flats just moments away, this property offers a harmonious mix of style and location.

IF YOU LIVED HERE…

Your new home opens with a welcoming hallway where floorboards run throughout, linking each space with a natural flow. A built-in storage cupboard adds practicality, while the finish lends a warm sense of continuity.

At the front, you’ll find the kitchen and reception area combined into a generous open-plan room, designed for both everyday living and entertaining. A wide bay window allows sunlight to pour in, illuminating the soft tones of the flooring. With ample space for a dining table and comfortable seating, this room offers versatility and ease, bringing together cooking, dining and relaxing in one inviting setting.

Crisp white tiling gives the bathroom a clean, timeless look. A full-sized bath with overhead rain shower makes it as practical as it is appealing, while built-in cabinetry ensures a tidy finish.

One of the bedrooms enjoys glazed double doors that open directly onto a courtyard, creating a light and restful space. The courtyard itself provides a secluded outdoor corner, perfect for morning coffee or a touch of greenery, and is easy to maintain.

To the rear, the main bedroom is a serene retreat, enhanced by high ceilings, whitewashed beams and a skylight that fills the space with daylight. A clever partition introduces a separate dressing or study area, while built-in cabinetry adds plenty of storage. The adjoining ensuite continues the fresh, simple style, complete with walk-in shower and another skylight overhead, ensuring this personal haven remains airy and uplifting.

When it’s time to head out, you’ll find a wealth of choice right on your doorstep. Wanstead Flats unfurls just moments away, a vast stretch of greenery once favoured by royalty and now beloved by joggers, dog walkers and those after a leisurely picnic. A little further on, Winchelsea Road has become a lively hub, with its railway arches transformed into characterful hangouts. Sip small-batch brews at Pretty Decent Beer, savour vibrant flavours at The Wanstead Kitchen or pause for coffee and pastries at Wild Goose Bakery. For your new local, The Wanstead Tap is hard to beat, a bar, bottle shop and cultural venue all rolled into one. And with Stratford just a stop away, world-class shopping and Olympic legacy facilities are at your fingertips.

a word from the owner...

"With its genius layout, immaculate decor, central courtyard, ensuite room and excellent location, this two-bedroom apartment is truly a unique gem, with far more space than it may first seem. The addition of the ensuite room at the rear has created a self contained living space, with a bathroom and sleeping area there as well as within the main part of the property. Thorpe Road is just moments from the brilliant amenities of Winchelsea Road and the historical greenery of Wanstead Flats, while Forest Gate station is under a mile away, where you can hop on the Elizabeth line and reach central London in less than 20 minutes."

Our Local Guide:
Forest Gate

Thorpe Road, Forest Gate — Stow Brothers

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.

Transport links

Great Pubs

Wine bars, gastro pubs, microbrews, traditional boozers… With so many drinking establishments in Forest Gate, taking ‘a trip to the local’ can be a tricky decision. The CiderHouse, The Holly Tree and Forest Gate Tavern are just a few of the places to choose between.

Plenty of period property

Forest Gate has an abundance of Victorian housing, ranging from terraces in the area dubbed ‘Forest Gate Village’ to semis and detached in the Woodgrange Estate conservation area. Whether you’re after a doer-upper or recently renovated period property, there should be something for your budget.
