A WORD FROM THE OWNERS...

"We've loved our time in Walthamstow, but now have to move closer to family in Leeds. Gosport Road has been so convenient for the tube to central London, but also only minutes to the high street and Walthamstow market. Nearby St James Street now has the excellent Crate with bars and cafés. Curious Goat is our closest (and favourite) café that we will definitely miss! Up in central 'Stow, the new Soho Theatre is the latest fantastic addition to the many cultural venues nearby, and we've loved being able to stroll home after a great night out.

The immediate local area has a great sense of community, with the annual jumble trail, and street party where everyone gets together and chips in. Gosport Road is surprisingly quiet, especially since the traffic calming measures. And it's so nice to see kids playing in the street in the summer. Having the cemetery behind our garden also helps to keep the house free from noise (and overlooking neighbours).

We love the handy nearby Thomas Gamuel Park and the larger St. James Park. For longer walks or cycles you can be in Walthamstow/Hackney marshes and the Olympic Park in no time at all. All the best to the new owners of 81 Gosport road, I'm sure they will love living here as much as we have!"
