Wanstead Family Home with large garden (20m to Bond Street)

A newly refurbished home on the edges of the largest green space in London, a mere 12 minutes by train to Central London, and less than 25 minutes from our door to Bond Street. Four bedrooms, two bathrooms and ample open-plan living area. Underfloor heating, an indoor fireplace and smart TV. We are 4 minutes from the station and the best trail running in London is on our doorstep.

Walk a couple of minutes north of our home, and Wanstead Flats transitions seamlessly into the broader landscape of Epping Forest, a vast ancient woodland stretching across London and Essex. This is where the terrain becomes more varied and engaging for both trail runners and mountain bikers. The forest contains a dense network of trails—over hundreds of kilometres—ranging from smooth gravel bridleways to rooty, winding single-track through hornbeam and beech woodland.

For runners, this creates an ideal natural playground: long endurance routes on fire roads, rolling climbs near High Beach, and more technical forest loops that reward agility and pacing. For mountain bikers, Epping Forest is especially well known for its fast, flowing XC-style riding, with tight corners, short climbs, and seasonal variation that can range from hard-packed dust in summer to muddy, challenging conditions in winter.

For those who are more keen on the culinary joys of East London, nearby Green Street and High Street North are among East London's most vibrant cultural destinations. Their bustling streets are lined with colourful sari boutiques, jewellers, spice merchants, sweet shops and independent retailers, reflecting the area's rich South Asian heritage. The lively cafés and restaurants serve an impressive array of regional cuisines from across the Indian subcontinent, making the area a popular destination for food lovers.
