Shernhall Street, Walthamstow

Arranged over three floors, this is an especially generous and naturally bright three-bedroom home, with an impressive open plan kitchen/living area, three bathrooms and a private balcony.

Nearby, you’ll find some of the area’s best amenities, with the buzz of Wood Street in one direction, and the charming Walthamstow Village in the other, meaning you’ve got an excellent choice of transport links too. You’re also near the cusp of Epping Forest, so there’s plenty of nature around.

IF YOU LIVED HERE…

Thanks to its smart layout, there’s a serious amount of space packed in, so you can enjoy spreading out from the day you move in. Take the open plan living area on the second floor, for instance; the smart kitchen area is spacious with room for a full size dining table, while at the front you have space for lounging, with the stairway acting as the perfect room divide. The balcony will be fantastically convenient, with the generous windows letting plenty of natural light into your home, too. Down on the ground floor, you’ll find the first of your three bedrooms - along with an ensuite. This bedroom could always act as an office if preferred. Then on the first floor, you have your remaining two bedrooms, one with an ensuite, the ultimate luxury.

Outside, you’ve got plenty to explore in the local area, including the brilliantly eclectic Wood Street. Not only does it look great thanks to the good work of local mural studio Wood Street Walls, but several exciting new stores and eateries have popped up amongst the old favourites, like the brilliantly unique Wood Street Indoor Market and local institution garden centre Lancasters. Not sure where to start? Try excellent beer shop-cum-bar Clapton Craft, tasty brunch spot Dudley’s and award-win bakery Chocolatine, but there’s much more.

You’ve got more quirky but creative gems in the nearby Ravenswood Industrial Estate, such as the ever-popular God’s Own Junkyard, as well as breweries Wildcard Brewery Tap, Pillars Brewery, Trap, plus gin palace Mother’s Ruin. Even closer you’ll find Art e Pasta, an Italian sharing plate restaurant with a focus on hand-made pasta - it’s perfect for date night or impressing visitors.

Your route to Walthamstow Village takes in some lovely sights, including the St Mary’s Churchyard. As for pubs, you’re spoilt for choice, with options of locals dotted in all directions, ranging from The Duke and the Lord Raglan to the Nags Head and Castle. If you need to escape further afield, you’ll be pleased to know that you’re only seven minutes on foot from Wood Street station, where you can nip to Liverpool Street in 20 minutes on the overground, or walk 14 minutes to Walthamstow Central for access to the speedy Victoria line. Either way, you can make it to centre of London in less than 45 mins, easy.

A WORD FROM THE OWNER...

"We have loved living here these past few years. The location is amazing being just a few minutes walk from the village with all it’s shops and restaurants but also Wood Street and being able to go and get our morning coffees and pastries from Chocolatines. During lock down I discovered just how close Epping Forest is and every morning I would take the ten minute walk and be surrounded by nature before I started my working day. The three separate floors means that it was easy to keep work and home life separate and continues to support me with good work life balance.The open plan nature of the top floor made cooking for friends really easy and sociable and one of the things I’ll miss is my Saturday morning coffee on the balcony in the summer."
