Note from Owner: 

"With a strong sense of community in the local area, we know most of our neighbours by name. The road is extremely quiet with the beautiful Epping Forest on the doorstep, within walking distance from Leytonstone’s bars and restaurants.

The flat has an abundance of storage space, including the huge cellar, and the undercover area in the garden means clothes can dry outdoors all year round. It is a great space for entertaining, having held many BBQs in the south-facing garden which is a suntrap in the summer.

The dimensions and character of the interior are what we were drawn to whilst flat hunting; it will be a hard act to follow. We have renovated the property installing a new kitchen and bathroom, and restored many of the original features including the floorboards and fireplace.

We have thoroughly enjoyed living here and plan to stay in the area."
