IF YOU LIVED HERE…

A charming bay-fronted home set behind a mature front garden, where a neat path draws you toward its inviting entrance.
Step inside to a warm and welcoming hallway, where wood flooring and panelled walls set the tone, complemented by two discreetly built-in cupboards. The reception room is a beautifully balanced space, with olive-toned walls and tailored storage creating an air of quiet sophistication. French doors lead through to the conservatory, where full glazing and high-level windows flood the space with natural light.
From here, step out to the south-facing garden, around fifteen metres in length and arranged into thoughtfully designed zones. A decked terrace sits directly outside the conservatory and sun room, perfect for entertaining or unwinding. A second seating area offers a more secluded escape, framed by established planting and low raised beds. The sun room offers a peaceful garden-facing retreat with its own access, allowing for flexible use.
The kitchen, accessed via the hallway, is bright and well-planned. Crisp white cabinetry, soft grey tones and gloss tiling create a clean, harmonious backdrop, while integrated appliances and generous worktops keep everything neatly organised.
The bathroom is a tranquil retreat, with a freestanding roll-top bath, walk-in shower, and natural finishes creating a calming, spa-like feel.
The main bedroom is spacious and beautifully finished, with timber flooring, soft blue walls, and a wide bay window dressed with classic white shutters. Custom wardrobes line one wall, while coving and a ceiling rose add subtle period detail. The second bedroom is filled with natural light and has access to an ensuite finished in warm-toned tiling and soft natural light.

A WORD FROM THE EXPERT...

"South Woodford was home for the first 25 years of my life. As I get older, I realise how lucky I am to have grown up here, an area with such fantastic schools, amenities and green space. George Lane is the main hub, where you’ll find the Central line station, as well as a great selection of supermarkets — M&S, Sainsburys, Waitrose and a Co-op. On top of this, is a fantastic choice of bars, pubs and restaurants, as well as an Odeon Cinema, library and gym. You really do have everything on your doorstep. Personal favourites for food include the Japanese takeaway Sakura, and newly opened independent cafe Bobo & Wild. South Woodford boasts a great stock of Victorian/ Edwardian family homes, as well as newer purpose-built blocks of flats and conversions, so attracts families and young professionals. It has great transport connections to the City and Canary Wharf, and with Epping Forest on your doorstep, it’s got the perfect balance of everything you need. My favourite local spots for walking are the Hollow Ponds, and the tucked away Elmhurst Gardens, with its two tennis courts. The nearby Woodford Dog Park is also a favourite, where both dog and owner meet up with their regular pals! All round, it’s a great place to call home."
