Moving to Stratford (E15)
Stratford in East London is most famous as the epicentre of the 2012 London Olympics and for its huge shopping complex. It has benefitted immensely from regeneration, as it was originally an area of London that was in decline and now it’s full of new-build properties, three stations, the impressive Westfield shopping mall (commonly called Eastfield) as well as Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.
Being located in Zone 2/3 and with extremely short journey times into Central London, property in Stratford is in high demand, taking only seven minutes to get from Stratford International to St Pancras – which also means Paris is only a couple of hours away, the DLR to Canary Wharf. This has made Stratford popular with families and young professionals.

Stratford has a number of primary schools in Newham, many of which are ranked ‘good’ or ‘outstanding’ such as Colegrove, Portway and Manorfield.
