If you lived here...

You'll step first into your light, bright entrance hall where handy, separate storage space keeps things tidy. Your 210 square feet reception has a lofty feel, with beautiful blonde timber flooring underfoot and elegant high ceilings overhead. A classic fireplace is the fabulous focal point. Your bathroom is splendid in pristine white. Glossy porcelain floor and wall tiles reflect light back into this spa-like sanctuary. A chrome shower presides over your full-length tub.

Your bedroom is 100 square feet of serenity. A high, wide window casts light about while further blonde flooring makes for a crisp, Scandinavian aesthetic. Your radiant hall continues to a separate, dedicated dining room for steps down to your bedecked and lawned mature garden, large enough for a table and chairs for sunbathing and summer socials. Your kitchen is a smart and practical affair, dressed in white and pale oak for a fuss-free, contemporary feel.

South Woodford hits that heavenly sweet spot between residential and rural. Despite its timeless natural beauty, it's packed with high-end restaurants and cafes. It even has its own Art Deco cinema. Amazingly, with your great amenities and transport links, abundant greenery and strong sense of community, you can still be at Oxford Circus in under thirty minutes. With Epping Forest just a stone's throw away, you really benefit from the best of all worlds.

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 restaurant Sakura, and the award-winning Indian Grand Trunk Road.
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."
