IF YOU LIVED HERE…
This is a period home that blends classic charm with a modern edge. Traditional brickwork is framed by bold painted detailing around the bay windows and entrance, while the deep-toned finish of the door adds a contemporary touch.
Inside, the hallway sets the tone with patterned floor tiles and a soft carpet runner rising up the stairs, while a glazed timber door leads through to the living spaces. The front reception is bathed in light from its wide bay window, with tall proportions and wooden flooring creating an inviting and versatile setting. Flowing on, the second reception is perfectly suited to dining and entertaining, opening directly onto the outdoor space and drawing in natural light. The WC beneath the stairs adds a lively touch of colour, turning a simple necessity into a feature in its own right.
At the back of the house, the kitchen and breakfast room impresses with exposed brickwork, deep-toned cabinetry and wooden worktops, while bi-folding doors open onto the terrace and garden beyond for effortless indoor-outdoor living. The garden extends gracefully, thoughtfully arranged with a paved seating area, central pathway beneath a pergola, and a broad sweep of lawn.
Upstairs, the front bedroom is a spacious retreat with its bay window and warm wooden floors, while the middle room benefits from built-in wardrobes and a bright outlook. The rear bedroom offers a peaceful green view, ideal for rest. Completing the floor is a beautifully finished bathroom with patterned tiles, brass fittings, and a bath with overhead rain shower.
This part of east London offers a lively blend of green spaces, independent shops and much-loved local spots. Just a short walk away, Weirdough Bakery tempts with artisan breads and pastries, while CRATE St James Street brings together street food, craft drinks and community events in a vibrant setting. For an easy-going pint, The Hare & Hounds is a popular choice with plenty of character. Outdoor spaces are in abundance, from the wide playing fields of Leyton Jubilee to the leafy calm of St James Park, while Walthamstow Marshes offer a wilder landscape to explore. Families are well catered for too, with excellent schools close by, including the outstanding Sybourn Primary School just a couple of minutes from your door.

A WORD FROM THE EXPERT...

I love living in Walthamstow – it’s got such a great mix of things going on. Saturdays are my favourite, with the market in Lloyd Park full of fresh food, handmade bits, and plenty of friendly faces. The new Soho Theatre has brought amazing shows right to our doorstep, and if I fancy a pint, the Blackhorse Beer Mile breweries are perfect for a wander. When I need some fresh air, the Walthamstow Wetlands are just a short stroll away – all that greenery makes you completely forget you’re in London. Plus, with brilliant transport links, it’s so easy to hop on the Tube or Overground and be in Central London in no time at all.
