Thomas Jacomb Place, Walthamstow

Smart, bright and airy, this two bedroom, two bathroom balcony apartment sits on the third floor of a handsome designer development. You're just moments from Walthamstow Central and surrounded by green grounds, all in the heart of E17.

You're enviably positioned for everything, but CRATE Walthamstow is particularly close. Bare moments away for a range of street food vendors, coffee by Perky Blenders and craft beers by the glass.

IF YOU LIVED HERE...

The clear highlight is your 250 square foot, open plan kitchen and reception, flooded with natural light from the balcony and home to a smart suite of graphite grey cabinets at one end. Chunky white worktops and a stainless steel oven with matching extractor complete the kitchen, and handsome hardwood runs underfoot up to the bank of patio doors leading onto your balcony.

Step out here for timber decking, a curved glazed balustrade and rooftop views across the borough. Back inside and your principal bedroom's a sizeable 120 square feet, with fitted wardrobes, blonde hardwood floors and a neat en suite with oversized vanity mirror. Elsewhere bedroom two's another double, similarly styled, and your family bathroom's another boutique affair, home to a rainfall shower over the tub.

The platforms of Walthamstow Central station are barely five minutes away on foot, for direct Overground and Underground links to Liverpool Street and Oxford Circus, respectively. So that's the City and West End at your fingertips, both less than half an hour door to door. Staying local, the enviable environs of Walthamstow Village are just fifteen minutes on foot, and home to some of the finest wining and dining spots for miles around.
