House For Sale £625,000
A large loft extension has been added to this three bedroom terraced Victorian house to create 1,054 square feet of living space over three storeys. Situated close to the shops of central Forest Gate and the new Elizabeth Line station, this is an excellent family home in a great location.
If you lived here...
You’d enjoy the perfect mix of original features and modern updates. The property has stripped wood floors and panelled doors throughout, in addition to built-in full height cupboards and four striking period fireplaces in both living rooms and the two first floor bedrooms. The additional top floor space has been tastefully designed and decorated to sit comfortably alongside the original living space on the ground and first floors, giving the house as a whole a visual coherence and relaxing ambience.
The ground and first floors have a traditional layout. The ground floor has a large living room at the front, a smaller living room at the rear (perfect as a dining room or workspace), and a kitchen, back hall and WC beyond. The front living room has a sunny southwest-facing bay window, whilst the rear living room has an original built-in cupboard and garden views. The kitchen has a painted wood floor, Shaker-style cabinets with freestanding appliances and a colourful tiled splashback. It also has a window above the sink with garden views.
On the first floor, there are two double bedrooms. Both are generously sized and have full-height built-in original cupboards. The spacious top floor double bedroom is 17’6” long and has a large amount of eaves storage, a large Velux window and two windows with rooftop views. The bathroom has an opening Velux window, striking monochrome tiling and a bath with an overhead shower and a glass screen, a washbasin and wall-hung console, a heated towel rail and WC.
Outside the 67 foot long garden is mainly lawned, with a paved area adjacent to the house, and there’s plenty of space at the end to add a studio as the neighbours have done.
The property is in excellent condition throughout and has a rare timeless quality thanks to the careful curation of its fixtures and fittings and the deft use of subtle colours in the decor.

A word from the owners...
"Odessa road is a lovely place to live with a great community spirit and a few minutes round the corner to the independent bakeries, breweries and yoga studios at the arches.
It’s now even quicker to get into town on the Elizabeth line- ten mins to the city and beyond.
Wanstead flats and Wanstead Park are a short walk (or faster run!) away with the woodlands, lakes and open expanses which feel like you’re in the middle of the countryside- they even have cows grazing in the summer and one of the best bluebell displays in spring.
I love this house for its period features from the fireplaces in every room to the exposed timber flooring and a lovely big garden- the perfect place to escape on a sunny day."
