After viewing their 1930s house, Anna Lea-Wilson and her husband Sam Silverman knew they had struck gold in their search for the perfect family home. Despite its London postcode, the property sits in a cul-de-sac behind a green and overlooks Epping Forest. The decor, however, had been untouched since the 1950s so needed a total revamp, but thanks to the property’s well-proportioned rooms and peaceful outlook, the couple could visualise it as their forever home.
