IF YOU LIVED HERE…

This attractive Victorian home makes a graceful first impression with its warm brick façade, white-painted accents, classic bay frontage and arched porch with tiled path, all hinting at the character within. Step inside to a generous through-lounge, an elegant, light-filled reception where natural textures and soft tones create a space that’s both relaxed and polished. A large front bay frames leafy street views, while wooden flooring flows to a second window, enhancing the sense of space. There’s ample room to lounge and dine, with bespoke shelving and cleverly integrated under-stair storage adding charm and practicality.

To the rear, the kitchen is a standout, serene and contemporary with natural bamboo cabinetry, white worktops and a broad picture window above the sink. Crittall-style doors open to the garden, blurring indoor and outdoor living. High-quality materials and thoughtful finishes create a kitchen that’s as functional as it is beautiful. The garden is mature and thoughtfully landscaped (2021), offering a versatile space for relaxing, entertaining and play. Planting brings colour and texture year-round, with changing blooms and foliage through the seasons. A generous shed provides ample storage.

Upstairs, the first floor hosts three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The front bedroom spans the width of the house, bathed in light from twin sash-style windows. The two rear rooms are equally inviting, one sunny and full of personality, the other peaceful and cheerful. The bathroom features crisp white metro tiles and a soft, stylish palette. On the top floor are two further bedrooms. The rear is light and adaptable, while the generous front bedroom offers a private retreat with twin skylights and warm timber flooring. Its en suite impresses with terrazzo tiling, a floating basin and a walk-in rainfall shower.

Walthamstow is known for its creative spirit and strong community, and this spot is especially well placed for culture and green space. Just a short walk away, Big Penny Social offers craft beer, food pop-ups, and events in a vast, welcoming space. CRATE St James Street, with its mix of indie shops, street food, and co-working spaces, is also nearby. For a change of pace, Walthamstow Wetlands offers nature reserves, walking trails, and birdwatching. Lloyd Park is under fifteen minutes on foot, with a weekend market and the William Morris Gallery.

A WORD FROM THE EXPERT...

"For me it’s the sheer variety you find in each pocket of Walthamstow that makes working and socialising here so enjoyable. Whether it’s having a coffee from Perky Blenders, going for a Sunday morning walk in Epping Forest, dropping into one of the local breweries in Blackhorse Road, or catching up with friends in Lloyd Park, the growth and positive changes within E17 have been incredible in recent years."
