IF YOU LIVED HERE…

With Walthamstow Village to the north, Leyton to the south and Hollow Ponds to the east, you can walk in almost any direction and find somewhere interesting to explore, ranging from award-winning eateries to nature trails, but let’s start with the view from home…

Your front reception room is bright and spacious, with cheery wallpaper and an ornate picture rail to bring a bit of period charm. The kitchen and bathroom are both smart and modern, while the bedrooms are bright and spacious. This whole space comes to over 777 square foot, so you can enjoy spreading out as you settle in. The smart finish will make unpacking all the more rewarding.

As for the area beyond, you’re only 10 minutes from Hollow Ponds, at the tip of Epping Forest, where you’ll find nature trails and also a boating lake. The delights of Walthamstow Village are a similar distance north - grab a takeout from the lovely coffee shop Hucks on the way and enjoy it while people watching in the quaint village square.

Or head down towards Leyton Midland Road arches where you’ve got some buzzy new choices, including the much lauded smokehouse Burnt (‘dreamy’ according to the Guardian), as well as Gravity Well Taproom.

A WORD FROM THE OWNER...

"We've given this flat a lot of love over the 7 years that we've lived here, and it's given us a lot back. It's conveniently located near the best of everything - a 12 minute walk from Walthamstow Central, 9 minutes from Orford Road and Walthamstow Village, and just a few steps away from buses to Oxford Circus, Hackney, Tottenham and Stratford. We're also close to Tesco and the shops and cafes of Hoe Street and Bakers Arms, and 13 minutes from the Overground at Leyton Midland Road. It's the best possible base for exploring East London! Our favourite local haunts include Abbott's Park, Bromley's Cafe and Deli and The Nag's Head. We're also blessed with some fantastic local takeaways - The High Fry Fish Bar around the corner on Leyton High Road is a local institution which we will miss!"
