What the seller said....This is a much-loved family house. My family has been living in it since 1959. The garden faces south-west and is a real suntrap. There is only local traffic on Jersey Road so it's very quiet at night. The internal walls of the house were replastered and redecorated in 2018. Amtico vinyl floors, new carpets and a new kitchen and electrical appliances were fitted. These have been used very little as I spend long periods of the year abroad. I am selling because the house is now too large for me and I find it difficult to maintain the garden. What I enjoy about the area is the nearness of beautiful green areas, like Wanstead Flats and Epping Forest, and the many traditional pubs and restaurants in the area. There's a real community spirit in Jersey Road, so people look out for each other. The neighbours are delightful and are old friends. I will miss them'.
