Wanstead Park ward was drawn up for the 2018 elections from parts of the old Cranbrook, Valentines and Wanstead wards, and had 8,063 residents in 2021. Its main settlement is Aldersbrook, and it takes its name from the park. The table matches the homes there to our fixed prices.

If a parking space has to be paid for on the day, the quote shows that cost as we pay it.

Redbridge rents set the size of the deposit. The ONS average was £1,734 a month in September 2026, with a two-bed at £1,689, a three-bed at £1,992 and a terraced house at £2,028. Five weeks of rent on an average semi-detached house comes to about two and a half thousand pounds.
The streets beside the park
Wanstead Park is about 140 acres of the southern end of Epping Forest. The City of London Corporation bought it in 1880 and still runs it, and it is Grade II* on the register of historic parks.
It keeps parts of the layout of the grounds of Wanstead House, which stood from 1722 to 1825. A pair of Grade II* gate piers from the early 18th century, one of the original entrances to the park, still stands at the start of Overton Drive.
The housing comes right up to its edges. Five entrances are listed for the park: Warren Road at Overton Drive, Blake Hall Road at Blake Hall Crescent, Park Road at Northumberland Avenue, Wanstead Park Avenue on the Aldersbrook side, and a footbridge from Wanstead Park Road in Ilford. To the east the boundary is the River Roding and the A406.
South of the park, the Aldersbrook estate was mostly laid out in the 1910s and became a conservation area in 2002. Its later additions are a separate job: 1950s council housing around Brading Crescent, with sheltered housing and the Jackson Court tower, late-1960s flat-roofed courtyard houses behind Clavering Road, Alders Close from the mid-1980s on the site of the old maternity hospital, and Albury Mews from the late 1980s.
An Edwardian house asks for the most time. A bay window means three sets of sills and frames, picture rails and deep skirting hold dust, and an original tiled hall floor has to be washed by hand. A post-war flat is quicker but has its own trouble spots, usually the extractor fan, the grout and the kitchen cupboard tops.
On parking, the park’s volunteer website says there are no residential parking schemes near the park at present.
Which station is Wanstead Park?
It is not by the park. Wanstead Park station, on the London Overground’s Suffragette line, is in Forest Gate in the London Borough of Newham, about 2 km south-west of the park itself. We clean there too, and the Forest Gate North page covers the homes around it.
The homes beside the park are served by the Central line instead. Wanstead and Snaresbrook stations sit at either end of Wanstead High Street, and Redbridge station is near one of the park’s pedestrian entrances. When you book, give us the full postcode: an E7 address near the station and an E11 or E12 address by the park are different trips for the cleaners.
Licensing in Wanstead Park ward
This is where the ward matters more than the postcode. Redbridge runs two selective licensing schemes. Scheme 3 has covered Ilford Town and Valentines since 1 November 2023, and Scheme 4 has covered 15 more wards since 8 April 2024, running to 7 April 2029. Wanstead Village ward is one of those 15. Wanstead Park ward is not, so an ordinary single-household let on the park side of Wanstead needs no selective licence, while one in Wanstead Village ward does.
Shared homes are licensed everywhere in the borough. Since 18 September 2023, Redbridge’s additional HMO scheme has covered homes shared by three or four people who are not all related and share facilities, and the national mandatory licence covers five or more.
The deposit test is the same either way. A landlord cannot require you to pay for a professional clean under the Tenant Fees Act 2019, but they can deduct for cleaning if the home is not as clean as the check-in inventory recorded, and the clerk checks it line by line.
An ordinary single-household let on the park side of Wanstead needs no selective licence, while one in Wanstead Village ward does.
Thames Water limescale in E11
Water company boundary data puts every E11 postcode with Thames Water, which says all the water in its region is hard. Scale builds quickly on tap bases, shower glass and the toilet bowl, and inventory clerks write it down as dirt. Descaling is part of every fixed price here: the cleaners apply a descaler, give it time, rinse it off and dry the chrome so no white haze comes back.

Each cleaner has had an in-person interview, is insured, and has been trained on our 57-point checklist. The work covers:
- Kitchen: cupboards and drawers inside and out, the tops of wall units, worktops, tiles, hob, extractor and filter, sink and taps, fridge and freezer (off and defrosted the night before), dishwasher, the washing machine drawer and seal, and the floor beneath movable appliances.
- Bathroom: descaling of taps, shower, screen and tiles, grout, toilet bowl, seat, base and cistern, bath, basin, mirror and the extractor fan cover.
- Bedrooms and front rooms: skirting, picture rails, door frames and doors, switches and sockets, radiators, wardrobe interiors, bay window sills and frames, and the inside of the glass.
- Hall and stairs: banister and spindles, every step, the cupboard under the stairs, tiled or wooden hall floors, and carpets vacuumed last.
Please clear the home and keep the power and water connected. The cleaners rely on the property’s own supply and do not bring any.
The oven is an add-on and never part of the fixed price. With the clean it is £31 for a single or single wide oven, or £62 for a double or a 90cm range. Racks, trays and other removable parts are soaked separately, while the cavity, glass and seals are cleaned by hand in the kitchen, including the inner door glass where its design allows. Our oven cleaning service handles ovens booked on their own.
Carpets added to the clean are £29 a bedroom, £36 a living room, £47 a through lounge, £35 a flight of stairs, £20 a hallway and £8 a landing, cheaper than booking carpet cleaning separately. The Redbridge end of tenancy cleaning page covers the rest of the borough, from South Woodford to Goodmayes.
End of tenancy questions near the park
My flat is in E7 near Wanstead Park station. Is this the right page?
The prices are the same, but your home is in Forest Gate, Newham, and the licensing rules there are Newham’s. The Forest Gate North page linked above is the closer match.
Does my landlord need a selective licence for a house on the Aldersbrook estate?
Not if the house is in Wanstead Park ward and let to one household, because the ward is outside both Redbridge selective schemes. If three or more unrelated people share it, it needs an HMO licence.
How much for a three-bed Edwardian house with the oven?
£339 for the house, plus £31 for a single oven or £62 for a double. Carpets are extra if your tenancy asks for them.
Can I pay in two parts?
Yes. A 50% deposit holds your date, and the rest is due once the clean is done.
What if the clerk flags something we missed?
If the letting agent or clerk raises it within 48 hours, the cleaners come back and sort it out without charge. Send us the report lines on WhatsApp at 0333 555 2076.
