Salop Road, Walthamstow

This beautiful four-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace home is situated on a peaceful street in the well connected St James Street area of Walthamstow, just a short stroll from the much-loved Walthamstow Wetlands. The thoughtful blending of original features and contemporary updates results in a striking space, spread across three spacious floors, and the rear garden is just as stunning as the interior.

IF YOU LIVED HERE…

The double-reception room is full of period charm and awash with natural light thanks to the dual-aspect glazing. The fireplaces, ornate coving, and sash windows are a reminder of the home’s Victorian roots, but the considered decor and polished finishes bring it all bang up to date. You’ll love the extra touches, such as the bespoke shutters, and the clever pocket doors between the front and rear reception allow the space to be separated into two distinct rooms when needed.

The rear reception flows seamlessly into the kitchen/diner, where you’ll find stunning shaker-style units, brass fittings, a double oven, and a central island as the focal point. It’s all beautifully bright thanks to the generous amount of glazing. During warmer months, you can spill outside to the fantastically landscaped rear garden and enjoy the striking array of mature foliage from the decked patio, which has been cleverly designed to include storage underneath.

On the first floor, the two pristine bedrooms have been thoughtfully decorated, with more of those lovely period features and bespoke storage. The family bathroom has been artfully designed, with a walk-in shower and freestanding tub. Meanwhile, up in the converted loft, you have another two bedrooms - the master has a smart en-suite, while the smaller room would make a great study.

Beyond that striking vintage-style front door and brick facade, you’re spoilt for choice when it comes to greenery. You can cycle largely traffic free to the Olympic Park in 30 minutes (there’s secure outdoor bike shed and store at the front of the house). You’re also within a close walk of the Walthamstow Marshes and Wetlands.

You’ve got also countless amenities on your doorstep, including Europe’s longest market which runs along the High Street, plus the convenient chains found in the 17¢ral shopping centre a short stroll away in Walthamstow Central.

Creative hub CRATE St James is a few minutes away, where you'll find an eclectic collection of independent ventures. You’re also just a short hop from the newly launched Blackhorse Beer Mile, featuring some of East London's most exciting craft beer breweries, bars and street food.

Need to escape beyond Walthamstow? It's just a few minutes on foot to St James Street station, where the Weaver Overground will zip you to Liverpool Street in around 15 mins. Alternatively, stroll a bit further to Blackhorse Road station, where you also have access to the Victoria line and Suffragette Overground.

A WORD FROM THE OWNER.......

"This was our first family home and an ideal location to bring up young children, with welcoming ante groups and an abundance of post natal activities in the area. Two children’s play parks are a few minutes’ walk away (as is the Coppermill, the 46th best pub in London according to Time Out magazine) and the local street parties and jumble sales in the summer create a sense of community, bringing young families in the neighbouring streets together.

This area has an abundance of open space for morning runs and evening walks in Walthamstow Marshes and Wetlands, or weekend strolls along the Lea Valley river walk. We also spent lockdown here, and made good use of our secluded outdoor patio for morning sun and deck for evening sun and BBQs.

The lack of through traffic makes parking easy and gives a quieter feel, yet within ten minutes’ walk there is a bustling local high street where you can find some excellent independent restaurants and shops. The direct overground and underground transport links also put Liverpool Street and central London via the Victoria line within 40 minutes of leaving home."
