IF YOU LIVED HERE...

Ideally situated in Walthamstow’s sought-after Poet’s Corner, this beautifully renovated Victorian home perfectly balances period charm with contemporary design. Thoughtfully updated by its current owners, the property features a tactile design palette, wooden floorboards, and a seamless blend of original details with modern comforts.

Step through the iron gate into the neatly kept gravel-surfaced front garden, framed by coordinating iron railings atop a low brick wall. Inside, the reception room is packed with character and elegance, with original coving, picture rails, and a ceiling rose. An exposed brick feature wall highlights the cast iron fireplace, while plantation shutters provide privacy without compromising natural light.

The well-proportioned family bathroom makes a striking impression, pairing crisp white metro tiling with a bold forest green ceiling and feature wall. A matching deep green cabinet-mounted basin, a rain-head shower over a glazed bath, and vintage-patterned black-and-white floor tiles add a stylish, timeless touch. Wooden shelving and a mirrored cabinet ensure ample storage.

Beyond, the extended kitchen/diner is a light-filled haven, enhanced by a lantern skylight and bi-fold doors that fully integrate indoor and outdoor living. Rich dark blue cabinetry, a classic Belfast sink, and integrated appliances—including a gas hob—offer both style and practicality. The island extends the workspace while doubling as a breakfast bar, making it ideal for socializing. Warm wood flooring, an exposed brick feature, and soft downlighting create a welcoming ambience.

The 34-foot garden is a lush, well-maintained retreat, with raised beds edged in thick wood slabs and neatly arranged planting. At its rear, the timber-clad garden room (82.62 ft²) offers a versatile space with sliding glass doors, perfect as a home office, guest suite, or gym.

Upstairs, two beautifully appointed double bedrooms (each 132 ft²) are decorated in calming tones. One features a black iron fireplace as a nod to the home’s Victorian heritage, while both offer built-in storage without compromising on style.

This is a rare opportunity to own a stunning home in one of Walthamstow’s most desirable pockets—where history, design, and modern convenience come together effortlessly.

A WORD FROM OWNER...

"We have absolutely loved living here, it's in the perfect location for everything in Walthamstow from pubs, coffee shops,parks, and of course the Village. There is also a fantastic community on our road that is wonderful to be a part of. We will particularly miss being a stone's throw away from East of Eden studio, Buhler and Co and of course Yard Sale Pizza."
