IF YOU LIVED HERE...

Located halfway between Walthamstow and Chingford, Highams Park is a wonderful balance of expansive green space and local convenience with great transport links so it came as no surprise to residents when The Times recently named the area as one of "the best places to live.”

This home starts with curb appeal as mature red and white rose bushes in the front garden welcome you. Inside, the spacious front reception room is bright and flexible, with a large bay window, original cast iron fireplace, and a layout that adapts to daily life or entertaining. With dado rails and coving- a nod to the home’s vintage heritage, you can feel its potential.

A downstairs WC with white tiling and royal blue trim adds convenience and practicality.

Through glazed doors, the open-plan kitchen/diner features warm terracotta tiles and L-shaped cottage-style wooden cabinetry for a rustic feel. A built-in cupboard is large enough to create the walk-in pantry of your dreams or as a dedicated laundry space with plumbing already in place.

A glazed door connects directly to a generous 50-foot rear garden. With a patio space directly outside, perfect for alfresco dining. A couple of steps take you to the raised section of lawn and a shed at the back. There’s huge scope to reimagine the space—grow your own herbs or flowers for the table in the beds to the side, or just enjoy and relax in the privacy.

Upstairs are two comfortable double bedrooms and a third single, ideal for a study or nursery. The main bedroom includes a full wall of wardrobes and another wide bay window; the second bedroom has tranquil garden-framed views.

The bathroom is a vintage treat with warm wood flooring, a charming and unusual scallop shell basin, and a matching bath.

A WORD FROM THE EXPERT...
 
“I enjoy the outdoors as well as the hustle and bustle of the city, so Chingford is the perfect spot. With Epping Forest on the doorstep, cycling, hiking and exploring are only a hop away. The amazing transport links can take you into the city in less than half hour. With Chingford Mount and North Chingford to choose from for a pub, restaurant and café means you’respoilt for choice. The Rusty Bike is a personal favourite to grab some Thai food, have a beer or the watchsports. The Kings Head is great for Weekends. The beer garden is perfect in the summer and in the colder months you can warm up inside with a roast dinner. The diversity of the locals is what makes Chingford great — there are loads of international takeaway restaurants and supermarkets, where I’m constantly discovering new tastes and flavours. The perfect evening spot for dog walking is Yates Meadow, where you can see across the city vista for miles. Thetranquillity of the hills with the high-rise buildings in the distance creates a juxtaposition that feels really special. Chingford has something to offer for almost every buyer. From stunning period properties overlooking golf courses or Epping Forest. To brand-new builds perfect for getting on to the property ladder for first time buyers.”
