Property description
Forest Glade is a charming sought after tree lined turning hidden away in a quiet and popular pocket of Upper Leytonstone.
Facing attractive forest land, this quaint enclave is snuggled between Whipps Cross, Hollow Pond and Leytonstone station. It consists of well maintained period homes with Victorian style street lamps giving it a truly village feel.
Surrounded by the green open spaces of Epping Forest with boating lakes and ancient heaths, it is the perfect place for families to live and relax to enjoy outdoor activities such as jogging, picnics , bike riding around the ponds and lakes and nature walks with the children on those sunny summer days.
This substantial looking period semi-detached home has a 'kerb appeal' with many grand original features reflecting the grandeur and status of the period of that time. The large reception rooms. bedrooms with high ceilings, large detailed coving and fire places are more evidence of its grandeur and status.
This beautiful attractive home will need some modernisation and will attract buyers who are looking for a grand home to return it back to its former glory. For those families with schools in mind, you have an excellent choice of outstanding primary and private schools in the area.

This has been a wonderful family home and we have lived here for over 35 years. There is a real sense of community here , we have very nice and respectful neighbours , everyone looks out for each other. We even had a street party for the Queens Birthday!
My mother was respected in the community and she spent a lot of time helping others, particularly in the Hindu Temple on Whipps Cross Road.
I spent a lot of my adolescence here, playing, exercising or relaxing around Hollow Pond. It is incredibly quiet here, yet its only a short walk to Leytonstone Station perfect for commuters.
