A word from the owner: "We've lived here for 5 years and love it. Our young family are moving back up north, and we'll miss this place very much. We enjoy living next to the trees on this quiet street and being a couple of steps from a walk in the forest. We love the wildlife here, from the deer and muntjacs that can be seen right on our street, to the woodpeckers and hummingbird hawk moths that visit our garden The front of the flat gets the morning sun, a nice spot to sit outside for breakfast. The south-west facing back garden gets the afternoon and evening sun. The kitchen flows nicely into the garden, which is great for relaxing, socialising, and growing plants and vegetables. Crescent Road is a lovely quiet street, and it’s a 5-minute walk through the forest to the Epping Forest Visitor Centre, the newly reopened Royal Forest pub and restaurant, and Queen Elizabeth Hunting Lodge. It's a short stroll past Chingford Plain to the Overground for Liverpool Street in less than half an hour or a short hop to Walthamstow for the Victoria line."
