Where exactly is Gidea Park?

It's in the London Borough of Havering, so technically London since 1965. You've got Romford to the west, Heath Park up north, Squirrels Heath over east. Station Road cuts through the middle. People rate it as one of the nicer postcodes locally. The old trees help, the period buildings too. It's got that village feeling you don't find everywhere else.

 

What's it like living in Gidea Park?

Peaceful mostly but you're not stuck in the middle of nowhere. Streets are wide, homes have proper character to them. Raphael Park gets busy with dog walkers and kids playing. You've got local shops, a couple of cafés, Post Office, places to eat if you can't be bothered cooking. Schools are decent so families move in and don't leave. The station's handy for work. Overall it suits people who want some quiet but still need to be near things.

 

What types of properties are in Gidea Park?

Bit of everything really. The Exhibition Estate's famous for those Arts and Crafts houses from the early 1900s. Then you get interwar semis, detached places with big gardens. Closer to the station there's modern flats, some conversions.

Certain roads feel private and green, others are nearer shops and buses. Whatever you're after there's probably something for you.

 

How much do houses cost in Gidea Park?

Depends what you're looking at and where it is. The average is roughly £550,000, give or take. Detached can push £900,000 or more if it's in good nick with a decent plot. Semis are usually £580,000 to £620,000. Terraces sit around £525,000. Flats start from around £290,000. Anything close to the station or with period bits moves quicker. If you're wondering what yours is worth we'll come round and give you a free valuation, no catch.

 

What's the rental market like in Gidea Park?

Pretty busy, things rent fast here. One-beds go for £1,300 to £1,800 a month usually. Two-beds are more like £1,600 to £2,000. Family houses with three or four bedrooms hit £2,200 or higher. Good ones don't sit empty long, people snap them up. We sort landlords with proper tenants and make sure tenants get somewhere looked after.

 

How good are transport links in Gidea Park?

Really good actually. Gidea Park station's on the Elizabeth Line so you're into Liverpool Street in about 25 minutes. Romford station's not far either if you need other lines. Loads of buses go through heading to Romford, Hornchurch, and other nearby towns. By car you've got the A12, A127, M25 all pretty close. Getting about isn't a problem.
