Double in shared house in Leytonstone oasis
Our place is a Victorian terraced house on a quiet residential road close to Wanstead Park, several excellent pubs and many international restaurants. You’ll love  it because of the peace and quiet, the garden, the neighbourhood, the light, the ambiance....The house is less than 10 minutes' walk from Leytonstone tube station, which is just 20 minutes from the City of London on the Central Line. Our place is good for couples, solo adventurers and business travellers.<br /><br /><b>The space</b><br />The bedroom you will stay in has a comfortable double bed, large wardrobe, armchair and chest of drawers. There are tea and coffee making facilities, ( in addition to use of the kitchen, if necessary.) <br />I may be able to provide breakfast and even dinner, on request and with 24 hours' notice. <br />There is shared use of a bathroom with overhead shower and  a wet-room with toilet downstairs. <br />The through lounge is decorated comfortably, with an open fireplace and there is the added 
This is a quiet oasis in the hustle and bustle of London. The southern end of Epping Forest, Bushwood, is 200m from our home- dense forest with lots of pathways. Wanstead Flats and Wanstead Park are a stone's throw away, as are several shops, pubs, restaurants and music venues. Ours is a very friendly community, with many events for neighbours and guests throughout the year.
I'm a former English lecturer at Waltham Forest College and my husband and I split our time between London and Kendal, in the Lake District.  I'm now enjoying retirement by travelling, volunteering with local charities, singing in choirs and playing the piano, also the  clarinet in a band.  I  love the outdoors, fell-walking, cycling and swimming whenever I can.
 
Our house has two full-time lodgers, both mature professionals, one male and one female. 

It's a family home rather than a party house and we like to share a meal or a drink together from time to time. 

I love visiting local restaurants,  pubs and music venues, as well as central London 's theatres, concert halls and art galleries,  and can advise visitors on places to visit. I'm a keen cook and baker and you might be persuaded to sample some of my efforts!
