There’s ample space for both dining and lounging, with easy access to the kitchen adding to the open, welcoming feel. The kitchen itself is thoughtfully designed, featuring traditional-style units paired with sleek worktops. Rear access allows for a wonderful flow of light throughout the space.
The bedroom continues the theme of brightness, thanks to a charming bay window that fills the room with natural light. Meanwhile, the bathroom offers a contemporary touch with sparkling tiles and a stylish over-tub shower.
When the sun is shining, you’ll love spilling out into your spacious rear garden, where the leafy climber, brick walls and smart fencing bring a brilliant sense of seclusion. As well as the lawn, you’ve got handy storage.

Or head north towards Leytonstone where you’ve got even more great options, such as Homies on Donkeys and Panda dim sum.
After all that eating, you might fancy a stroll around Wanstead Flats, so close to your home you can glimpse it from the front door. Once the favoured hunting ground of Henry VIII, it’s now perfect for fitness fans and picnickers.

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 meet friends for a drink at Joyau. 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."
