Set within easy reach of transport links, it’s a home that combines style, flexibility and convenience.

IF YOU LIVED HERE…

A striking Victorian frontage with decorative brickwork, ornate detailing and bay windows gives this home strong kerb appeal. A gated path leads to the arched doorway and classic timber door, setting the tone for the elegant interiors that follow.
Inside, the first floor hallway feels welcoming and well-considered, with soft carpeting and a built-in cupboard beneath the stairs. Natural light from above filters down the stairwell, drawing you through to each space. The reception room sits at the front, an impressive space with original floorboards, wall panelling and intricate cornicing. A wide bay and additional sash window bring in an abundance of light and overlook the leafy street below. At the rear, the kitchen is carefully composed with sage cabinetry, white worktops, warm wood shelving and herringbone flooring. A glazed door leads to the balcony—ideal for a quiet morning coffee.
Also on this level is a tranquil bedroom with a large window and textured half-height panelling, and a beautifully finished bathroom with a deep green tiled feature wall, overhead shower and generous bath. Stone-toned tiles and frosted glass soften the light and create a calm, luxurious feel.
Upstairs, a skylight brightens the landing which leads to two further bedrooms and a shower room. The main bedroom spans the front, where twin skylights, a Juliet balcony and built-in storage make for a peaceful retreat. Set to the rear, the second bedroom on this floor is bright and versatile, with treetop views and a restful outlook. The adjacent shower room impresses with bold geometric tiles, a walk-in enclosure and a smart, airy finish.
Set in one of Walthamstow’s most characterful corners, this location places you at the heart of a lively, well-loved neighbourhood. A short stroll away, Walthamstow Village blends historic charm with vibrant community life, including timber-framed cottages, cosy pubs and standout independents like the acclaimed Eat17 and The Castle, a stylish local favourite. There’s no shortage of green space either, with Lloyd Park’s wide avenues, café and the William Morris Gallery nearby, while St James Park offers a quieter spot for reflection. For something more eclectic, God’s Own Junkyard dazzles with neon installations, and the new Soho Theatre brings bold performances to the local stage. From artisanal coffee to laid-back drinks, everything you need is close to home.

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."
