****Excellent junior & senior schools: Dersingham Primary, Kensington Primary, Plashet School

Shakespeare Crescent is very well connected with greater London by the District/ Circle/ Hammersmith & City lines (East Ham station), or the Overground Suffragette line (Woodgrange station) & Elizabeth Line (Manor Park station). Whether commuting to work in Stratford (20 minutes) or the City (30 minutes), or shopping in Oxford Street or going to a West End show (both 45 minutes) or flying out of Heathrow (60 minutes), that is convenience!

But Manor Park and East Ham have a lot to offer locally, too, from the shops on vibrant High Street North, to Costa and Starbucks coffee shops, and the many varied eateries. Nearby also find Lidl, Iceland & Sainsburys.

This property is a great opportunity for a large busy family. Please call Barrain London to arrange your private viewing.
