Property Summary
Offered chain free and tucked away within the leafy, picturesque grounds of Hermitage Court, this beautifully presented two-bedroom ground floor flat offers the perfect blend of timeless elegance and contemporary convenience. A striking example of early 1930s Art Deco architecture, Hermitage Court remains as fashionable today as when it was first built – with its sleek lines, gentle curves, and ornamental details exuding a rare charm. Residents enjoy over three acres of exquisitely maintained gardens, creating a tranquil oasis just moments from the city.
Ideally positioned, the flat is a short stroll to Snaresbrook station, placing the buzz of Central London within easy reach, while the peaceful expanse of Epping Forest offers a natural escape nearby. The vibrant high streets of Wanstead and South Woodford, filled with independent boutiques, artisan cafés, restaurants, and everyday essentials, are close at hand, making everyday living both effortless and delightful.
Comprising: From the moment you arrive, the welcoming hallway - complete with a handy storage cupboard perfect for tucking away coats, shoes, and winter essentials - sets the tone for a home designed around easy, stylish living.
The heart of the home is the spacious living and dining area, a bright and inviting space ideal for everything from cosy movie nights to vibrant dinner parties with friends. It's a versatile room that's just waiting for your personal touch. Meanwhile, the kitchen is beautifully appointed, featuring fitted wall and base units, tiled splashbacks, and integrated appliances, including an oven, hob, and extractor. A large window fills the space with natural light and offers lovely views across the manicured gardens - plus, a door directly out to the communal grounds makes a morning coffee outside almost irresistible.
Both bedrooms are generously proportioned. The main bedroom is a real highlight, with its striking curved window, creating a light-filled, serene retreat that easily accommodates additional storage such as wardrobes or a stylish dressing table. The second bedroom is equally versatile, perfect as a guest room, home office, or nursery depending on your needs. Then completing the layout is a large, calming bathroom suite - an ideal place to unwind with a long soak after a busy day.
Externally: Outside, the lifestyle continues. Residents enjoy direct access to over three acres of beautifully tended communal grounds - lovingly maintained year-round by a full-time gardener - offering a rare connection to nature within easy reach of the city.
