Top tips for a Woodford Home Buyers Survey
Woodford is essentially a series of villages in northeast London spread out along Woodford New Road, the High Road, Woodford Green and Chigwell Road, embracing South Woodford, Woodford Green, Woodford Wells and Woodford Bridge.
It has a few grand period houses from the days when Woodford was more rural and the province of a few wealthy City merchants, but it mainly has a mix of Victorian, Edwardian, and Twenties and Thirties detached, semi-detached and terrace houses, along with new-build flats.
Manor Road's listed Victorian former Claybury Hospital has, for example, been converted into 850 new flats and houses and Centurion Court in The Drive has 10 new 2-bedroom flats. There are 294 homes in the converted Walthamstow Stadium in Chingford Road of which 99 are being sold as shared ownership.
There are large Victorian houses in Broomhill Road and Monkhams Estate has detached and semi-detached Edwardian and 1920s houses.

Home Buyers Survey - What does it cover?
A Home Buyers Survey is completed by a qualified RICS surveyor and delivers a visual inspection of the property in Woodford and the surrounding garden. The aim of the survey, whether a Building Survey (which used to be known as a Full Structural Survey) or a HomeBuyers Report, is to identify potential risks or defects that you may not know are there such as cracks or damage to the structure of the property, subsidence, damp and infestations.
