Woodford

Woodford is the location of william rose’s first ever office and the team has decades experience of working there. It’s a commuter town popular with young professionals and families, and offers a wide variety of homes, from Victorian to Thirties-build and later. The Monkhams Estate is perhaps the premier location in Woodford, with houses there often selling for over £1M, but Repton Park’s converted Victorian flats and houses, which are on the grounds of the former Claybury Hospital in Manor Road, can fetch similar money.

Schools

There are a number of exceptional schools in the area, of which Bancroft’s is one of the most notable. Not only because of its sterling results, but because it is situated in an astounding Victorian quadrangle designed by Sir Arthur Blomfield, which you cannot miss when passing. Woodford County High School for Girls, the former site of Higham House, is rated ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted, along with Wells Primary, Trinity Catholic and others.

Open Space

Along with its outstanding schools and excellent transport links, Woodford’s public green spaces are what brings homemovers to the area. In the north west of Woodford, bounded by Sunset Avenue, Hatch Forest forms part of Epping Forest and is used by Woodford Golf Club. The woodland is popular with runners and dog walkers, and its secluded clearings are perfect for picnicking with friends and family. It connects to The Highams Park, which boasts a magnificent lake. A short way south is The Green, where Woodford Green Cricket Club is said to have played since 1735. Here you will find Jubilee Avenue, which is a double row of mature poplar trees that provide a distinct, shaded path towards the statue of Sir Winston Churchill, who was MP for Woodford. In the south east of Woodford runs the River Roding, with a path alongside it that makes for a pleasant cycle ride or stroll.
