This wonderful, three bedroom , two bathroom home provides a fantastic renovation opportunity to create the perfect family home. All just a short walk away from Forest Gate and only a stone's throw from Winchelsea Road and Wanstead Flats.

Your door to door City commute could take as little as twenty three minutes. From nearby Forest Gate station the swift and efficient Elizabeth line offers regular direct services to Stratford, Liverpool Street, Paddington and Heathrow Airport.

IF YOU LIVED HERE...

Stepping through your double glazed front door and entrance porch, you'll see gorgeous original floorboards stretching out over the whole of your ground floor. The first room on your right is a 125 square foot reception, with a tiled fireplace and bright bay window. Carrying on down the hall you'll find your second reception room, with similar dimensions to the first. After that there's a handy ground floor WC and a large family bathroom sits next door, home to a modern white suite with handset shower over the tub.

To the rear, you'll find a classic kitchen, with bronzed splashbacks, white cabinets and an integrated chef's oven with gas cooking range. A door opens out onto your private patio garden, where neat borders are just waiting to be filled with flowers and vegetables. Back inside and heading upstairs, you'll find your first and second double bedrooms both feature ornate pewter hearths. Just across the landing there's a fully tiled, stroll in shower room and your third double bedroom sits to the rear of your first floor, overlooking the garden.



Head outside and in moments you'll be wandering along Winchelsea Road. This vibrant social hub has all the amenities you could possibly need. Nestled under the Forest Gate railway arches you'll find delicious fresh bread and baked goods at Wild Goose Bakery, an expertly curated selection of wines at Joyau and delicious craft beers and friendly vibes at The Wanstead Tap. The expansive meadows and scenic footpaths of Wanstead Flats are only five minutes away - start at the Sidney Road entrance and make your way past Jubilee Pond, to venture onto the Heath or past Alexandra Lake and along to Manor Park.

WHAT ELSE?

- Younger members of your family will enjoy a visit to the Can Club on Winchelsea Road. This creative play centre has great cafe too, so you can relax with a good book and a coffee while your little ones play and explore.
- An easy ten minute stroll will bring you to your new local, The Forest Tavern. This friendly gastropub has a warm, welcoming interior and serves the best Sunday roasts in Forest Gate.

a word from the expert...

"When I decided to move to Forest Gate a few years ago, I was drawn by the great housing stock, the green spaces of Wanstead Flats and the friendly, up-and-coming vibe of independent boutiques, eateries, and bars. I’ve spent many a happy weekend walking on the flats and in Wanstead Park. Often, I’ll finish up with an all-trimmings roast at The Holly Tree or perhaps a fantastic curry from The Wanstead Kitchen. After living here for a while, you really start to feel happy and settled. I love the arty, independent feel of Forest Gate, and I get the impression I’m not the only one — it’s something all the locals nurture and support." JOSEPH EARNSHAW E7 BRANCH MANAGER

Our Local Guide:
Forest Gate

Vansittart 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

With trains running every ten minutes, the Overground can get you to Liverpool Street in 13 minutes. In the south, Plaistow is on the District and Hammersmith & City tube lines, and the Crossrail will get you to Tottenham Court Road in just 17 minutes.

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.
