A WORD FROM THE OWNER...
"This is a beautiful, turnkey family home close to Francis Road and its vibrant, pedestrianised, boutique retail and dining areas, with many playgrounds, parks and play spaces on your doorstep. The Olympic Village, Hollow Ponds, and Victoria Park are all within 20 minutes walk. The property lies between Leyton and Leytonstone tubes, and both neighbourhoods continue to benefit from development funds from Waltham Forest, with safer streets, cycle lane improvements, plentiful residents’ parking, and road closures during school dropoff and pickup hours. There’s a plethora of good-to-outstanding primary and secondary school choices. And to close: there are three fantastic pubs within five minutes of the front door. The neighbours are lovely: both sides are long-term residents of the neighbourhood and have become friends over the years. The property itself is fully extended and renovated - and while you’ll probably want to add your own style and flair to the place, you could move in tomorrow and not have to do a stroke if DIY for a good few months. Music to the ears of all busy families! It’s been a wonderful home for over a decade. Now it’s time to move on, and let 161 bring happiness to the next lucky family to live here."
