A beautifully bright two bedroom raised ground floor flat, newly renovated and set within a handsome Victorian conversion in the heart of Forest Gate. Thoughtfully finished in a calm, contemporary palette, the home offers well-balanced living space, with a generous open plan kitchen, dining and reception room at its heart. Alongside the fresh decorative finish, the property has also undergone significant behind the scenes improvements, including a complete rewire, a completely new plumbing system, a brand new boiler and new sash windows throughout. Offered chain free and with the added rarity of off street parking, this is a stylish, straightforward move in a well connected East London setting.

"I renovated this flat as a real passion project. Living locally, I wanted to avoid the standard ‘grey box’ finish and craft a home to the exact standards I'd want for myself. It’s been completely renewed behind the scenes with all-new electrics, pipework and a new boiler. For finishes, I chose details I genuinely love: my favourite Farrow & Ball colours, Silestone worktops and beautiful kit-kat tiles. My absolute favourite thing is the light. Being east and west-facing, you get the morning sun with your coffee in the kitchen, and the sunset flooding the bedrooms in the evening.
The street has a lovely mix of families and genuinely welcoming neighbours. Forest Gate gets better every year, and you are spoilt for choice locally. Wild Goose Bakery is our go-to for bread, and Joyau is brilliant for natural wine. Gio’s does amazing pizza, while Fiore specialises in homemade pasta and an incredible set menu. To unwind, we regularly use E7 Movement for yoga and their sauna. A walk on Wanstead Flats is perfect in any weather, usually followed by a pint at The Holly Tree or Forest Tavern. Finally, being a five-minute walk from the Elizabeth Line changes everything; it’s easily London's best transport line. I hope the new owners will be very happy here."
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.
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.
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.
