If you lived here. . .
Your hallway takes you into your reception on the left, an inviting space of
295 square foot, dual aspect with windows to the front and rear. Original
hardwood boards lie underfoot, and a wood burning stove sits on a slate
hearth. At the end of the hallway is your 125 square foot kitchen, with a
wealth of white fronted units and integrated ovens set at the perfect height.
Your bright bathroom is to the rear, with modern white suite and shower over
the tub.
Back through the kitchen you'll find your way out to your delightful split
level garden, with large neat lawn and bustling borders. Upstairs are your
three bedrooms, the first to the rear giving you a versatile 180 square foot
of space to spread out in. Your second bedroom also has a view to the garden,
and 115 square foot of space. To the front is your third bedroom, a 175 square
foot double with twin windows. The same beautifully finished floorboards lie
underfoot.
You're ten minutes from Forest Gate for the Elizabeth Line, which gets you to
Stratford in four minutes, Liverpool Street in thirteen, and Tottenham Court
Road in eighteen. It's only half a mile to Wanstead Flats, and even closer to
home are Odessa Road Open Space and Forest Lane Park. Plus you're a short walk
from Winchelsea Road, filled with exciting places to eat and drink.

A word from the owner. . .
"123 Odessa Road is a very special house and we have really enjoyed living
here. The house itself has lovely high ceilings and the sun floods rooms with
light, giving a very airy and spacious feel during the day. It is particularly
beautiful on warm Autumnal afternoons. The house is easy to keep cool during
the summer if desired, but holds the heat well through the winter time. It can
be very cozy in the evenings.
The garden is also unexpectedly large for this part of East London with a
Lilac tree which offers some natural shade and looks fabulous in the spring.
The soil is really fertile and we've had many successful fruit and vegetable
crops plus a beautiful set of peonies that come back every year! There are
lots of parks and play areas near to the house (including one on Odessa Road
which is less than a minutes' walk away), offering great options for the
children and we are in walking distance of Wild Goose bakery, the bars on
Winchelsea Road, Wanstead Flats, Wanstead Park and Forest Gate stations, plus
the numerous pubs around the area. The neighbours on this stretch of the road
are all very friendly. It was meeting a friendly neighbour 10 years ago when
viewing the property that encouraged us to buy it - they still live next door!
We are in many ways sad to leave, but as a growing family we know that the
house will give another owner many happy memories in the years to come. "
