The owners Helen and Andrew discussed why they bought the property,

"We were originally looking for a property in a semi-rural location but came across Great Woodford House and fell in love with it. It was full of character with plenty of inside and outside space and offering the privacy we wanted whilst within easy reach of great schools and local facilities as well as the A38. We enjoyed transforming it into our home which proved to be the perfect place to bring up our family. We shall be very sad to leave but now they have grown it is time to move on to the next chapter."
