Full of character and clever design, this beautifully updated four-bedroom Victorian terrace gives you space to settle right in. With 1,124 sq ft of thoughtfully arranged living space, there’s plenty of room to live, relax, and entertain in the much sought-after ‘The Lanes’ location. Highlights include 2 receptions, an extended kitchen/diner, a downstairs WC, and a private south-facing garden. It’s set in a lovely pocket of East London too, just a short wander from the open greenery of Wanstead Flats. Forest Gate Station (Elizabeth Line) and Wanstead Park (Suffragette Line) are both close by, so getting into town is a breeze, even if you’re running late.

IF YOU LIVED HERE

Tucked into the heart of Forest Gate’s ever-popular ‘Lanes Area’, this elegant Victorian mid-terrace offers a rich blend of period character and thoughtful modern living.

Behind its smart grey-and-white frontage, the home opens into the first reception room, where rich, original-style wooden flooring sets a warm tone. A generous front-facing bay window, fitted with custom plantation shutters, draws in soft morning light, while a striking cast-iron fireplace anchors the space. Alcove shelving provides room for books, plants and treasured objects, striking an easy balance between character and simplicity.

The second reception room overlooks the side return, and features stripped wooden flooring, built-in storage and a direct connection through to the kitchen/diner, creating a natural sense of flow through the ground floor.

The kitchen is a bright, practical hub, with cabinetry running along both sides and solid wood worktops providing generous space for cooking, storage and gathering. French doors open directly onto the garden, effortlessly extending the space for outdoor dining. South-facing, the kitchen is filled with morning sunshine, while the lounge enjoys evening light. A soft, neutral palette creates a calm, cohesive feel, complemented by hardwearing contemporary flooring and the added convenience of a separate WC just beyond.

The rear garden is private and arranged over two levels. A paved terrace sits immediately outside the kitchen, ideal for relaxed outdoor meals, while a raised, gravelled section bordered by timber fencing offers space to plant, unwind or both. Raised beds and established greenery, including staghorn sumac and red robin with beautiful white flowers in springtime, give the garden a settled, lived-in feel.
